Use git "log" from another folder
git
Solution
From, `man git`:
You can do this with the `--git-dir` parameter, before passing any commands.
git --git-dir /foo/bar/.git log
(Specifying the `.git` directory is necessary.) From the documentation:
`--git-dir=<path>`
Set the path to the repository. This can also be controlled by setting the `GIT_DIR` environment variable. It can be an absolute path or relative path to current working directory.
Problem
I am in directory `A`. How do I execute `git log` for the git repository in directory `B`?
