Get the git commit base on filename

Question

I have missed one file locally but I can recall I commit and push that file before into the repository.

Can anyone help to get/search that commit base on my file name, so do I can go and get that file again.

Answer 1

Try with the following instruction:

git log --all --full-history --oneline -- {{YOUR_FILE_NAME}} **/{{YOUR_FILE_NAME}}

So you can find the file name in the project history if it were on the root folder, or in any subfolder.

Please tell me if that works for you.
