Often during a commit ($ git -commit -m ""), I wish to read my last comment to remember what progress I have made. Is there an easy way to directly access the last commit message through command-line? (I'm using Windows.)
Question
Answer
git show
is the fastest to type, but shows you the diff as well.
git log -1
is fast and simple.
git log -1 --pretty=%B
if you need just the commit message and nothing else.
