Show commits on a specific feature branch after branch is merged and deleted












1















We use the feature branch style in git. We have a few developers and a complex tree. I would like to be able to show something specific on the tree. If i check the gui generated log from tortoise-git i can see this:



enter image description here



The red line indicated is a feature branch that had several developers working on it. I would like to be able to show only the commits that appear on this line (merges included), as a list in the git terminal. I would have thought something like git log --second-parent (if it existed) would do the trick. Obviously tortoise-git can identify these commits, what is the command to do the same?





Things that don't work:



git log Commit-Where-Branch-Started..Commit-Where-Branch-Merged
As above but with --branches
