Git: See my last commit

Solution 1:

As determined via comments, it appears that the OP is looking for

$ git log --name-status HEAD^..HEAD

This is also very close to the output you'd get from svn status or svn log -v, which many people coming from subversion to git are familiar with.

--name-status is the key here; as noted by other folks in this question, you can use git log -1, git show, and git diff to get the same sort of output. Personally, I tend to use git show <rev> when looking at individual revisions.

Solution 2:

Use git show:

git show --summary

This will show the names of created or removed files, but not the names of changed files. The git show command supports a wide variety of output formats that show various types of information about commits.

Solution 3:

git log -1 --stat

could work

Solution 4:

By far the simplest command for this is:

git show --name-only

As it lists just the files in the last commit and doesn't give you the entire guts

An example of the output being:
