DWIM 'git show -5' to 'git show --do-walk -5'
To show the last two commits with one command, one might try 1) git show -s master~2.. 2) git show -s ^master~2 master 3) git show -s master^ master 4) git show -s -2 master Choice (3) works because both commits are listed on the command line. Choices (1) and (2) have worked ever since v1.6.4-rc~3 (Make 'git show' more useful, 2009-07-13) disabled --no-walk in this case because there is no other useful meaning for them to have. Unfortunately, (4) does not work: it outputs only one commit, because --no-walk stays on. So disable --no-walk in this case so ‘git show’ and future ‘git cherry-pick’ can behave as expected. As a side effect, this unfortunately changes the meaning of ‘git log --oneline --decorate --no-walk -5 --all’: instead of listing five refs, after this patch that command would list the five most recent commits.
