Viewing Commit Details in Git
Inspecting commit details helps you understand the changes made, who made them, and when. Git offers commands to explore commits deeply.
Using git show
The `git show` command displays full details of a specific commit, including author, date, commit message, and the changes made.
git show commit_hash
If no commit hash is given, it shows the latest commit.

The `git log` command lists commits with summaries. Use options for detailed output:
git log -p -1 commit_hash
This shows the patch (diff) for one commit.
Browsing Commit History
To view recent commits with brief info:

Shows last 5 commits as one-liners.
