I want git to give me a list of files within a folder unedited since a given revision -

i’ve been working on project needs touch every view (so within app/views folder), there’s lot of views. given combination of bash , git, how can list of files haven’t committed edit since given revision?

there's neater way of doing this, think following works:

if last revision before changes fa1afe1, can find files changed under app/views with:

git diff --name-only fa1afe1 -- app/views 

also, can see of files git tracking under app/views with:

git ls-files app/views 

now can find lines appear in output of 1 of commands using comm -3 , bash's process substitution syntax:

comm -3 <(git diff --name-only fa1afe1 -- app/views|sort) <(git ls-files app/views|sort) 

(you might find clearer send output of 2 commands temporary files , use comm rather use process substitution, since you'll have solution work /bin/sh , may easier understand.)

this command show files deleted in changes since fa1afe1, since files won't appear in output of git ls-files. caveat, strictly speaking show files different between commit , now, miss files changed in 1 commit , reverted original content afterwards. if that's problem can use git log --name-only , appropriate formatting build list of changed files instead of git diff.
