How do I view all commits for a specific day? Ask Question

I've already looked at the relevant docs from git-scm.com and gitref.org, but I can't seem to figure this out.

Let's say I want to get all commits for Tuesday, November 12th, 2013. Using an existing repo as an example, I know for a fact that I have commits on that day, as well as commits the day before and the day after.

With 2013-11-11 and 2013-11-12

All the following give me commits for both November 11th and 12th:

• git log --after="2013-11-11" --until="2013-11-12"
• git log --since="2013-11-11" --until="2013-11-12"
• git log --after="2013-11-11" --before="2013-11-12"
• git log --since="2013-11-11" --before="2013-11-12"

With 2013-11-12 only

All the following give me no commits:

• git log --since="2013-11-12" --until="2013-11-12"
• git log --since="2013-11-12" --before="2013-11-12"
• git log --after="2013-11-12" --until="2013-11-12"
• git log --after="2013-11-12" --before="2013-11-12"

With 2013-11-12 and 2013-11-13

As expected (from the results of 2013-11-11 and 2013-11-12 above), all of the following give me results from both November 12th and 13th:

• git log --since="2013-11-12" --before="2013-11-13"
• git log --after="2013-11-12" --before="2013-11-13"
• git log --since="2013-11-12" --until="2013-11-13"
• git log --after="2013-11-12" --before="2013-11-13"

...and so on and so forth. I feel like I've tried every possible combination of since, after, before, and until but still can't find the answer, nor do I understand whether those options are inclusive or exclusive, since they seem to be inclusive if the two dates are different, but exclusive if they're on the same day. Did I miss something / what am I doing wrong?!
