Commits history
Buddy lets you track repository changes in two ways:
- Commits history – a.k.a. repository timeline, a visual representation of the
git logcommand - Activity – displays the history of pushes to the repository + creation of branches, tags, and merge requests
Tracking changes on repository timeline
The repository timeline represents the history of changes in the selected branch with commits, dates, invokers, and associated deployment pipelines.
Go to the Code tab, select the branch that you want to investigate, and click Commits history in the right column:
