Advanced

Git is able to make diff between target branches or commits. By using it, you can prepare the file list that was changed between branches or commits.

If you're using Zsh (Default shell of macOS), you can add the following function to your ~/.zshrc file.

# Create diffrence files between current with specified commit
# git_diff ${commit_no}
function git_diff() {
    git diff $1 --diff-filter=ACMR --name-only | sed -e 's/\(^.*$\)/"\1"/g' | xargs git archive --format=zip --prefix=_diff/ HEAD -o _diff.zip
}

If you're using Fish, you can add the following function to your ~/.config/fish/config.fish file. (I haven't check this works properly yet, so if it's not working, please let me know)

# Create diffrence files between current with specified commit
# git_diff ${commit_no}
function git_diff
    git diff $argv[1] --diff-filter=ACMR --name-only | sed -e 's/\(^.*$\)/"\1"/g' | xargs git archive --format=zip --prefix=_diff/ HEAD -o _diff.zip
end

After adding the function, you can use git_diff command to create a zip file that contains the difference between the current branch and the specified commit.

git_diff ${commit_no}

# Example usage : compare with the latest commit
git_diff HEAD^
