How can I get the name of the last person who pushed to a remote?












2















I know that the option -force-with-lease allows me to push force only if I was last committer but I would like to allow overriding it:



git push playground $current_branch:master --force-with-lease

if ! [[ "$?" == "0" ]]; then
last_committer="$(git some command)"
ask_continue "the last committer was $last_committer, would you like to push force?"
git push playground $current_branch:master --force
fi


In that example, I would like to know what git some command would be.

    Your plan is dangerous! if --force-with-lease fails you should always check the remote history and merge the remote state of the branch into yours or rebase onto it. pushing with --force in that situation will remove the other contributors changes from the history.

    I want to remove the other contributors change, it is a playground environment where anyone can, well, play! Nonetheless, thank you for pointing that out for any user coming here. Don't do this if you are not aware of it.

git show --quiet --pretty=format:%an



--quiet - suppresses the diff output



%an - is the author name (For all other formats click this)




If you want to look who made last commit on a specific branch




git show --quiet --pretty=format:%an origin/branch-name
