I am looking for a simple git command that provides a nicely formatted list of all files that were part of the commit given by a hash (SHA1), with no extraneous information.
I have tried:
git show a303aa90779efdd2f6b9d90693e2cbbbe4613c1d
Although it lists the files, it also includes unwanted diff information for each.
Is there another git command that will provide just the list I want, so that I can avoid parsing it from the git show output?
The answer is
I thought I would share a summary of my alias.. also I find using 'zsh' great with git it chroma keys everything nicely and tells you want branch are in all of the time by changing the command prompt.
For those covering from SVN you will find this useful: (this is a combination of ideas from different threads, I only take credit of knowing how to use copy/paste)

I use this to get list of changed files in merge commit
? git log -m -1 --name-only --pretty="format:"

or

There's also git whatchanged, which is more low level than git log
NAME
git-whatchanged - Show logs with difference each commit introduces
It outputs the commit summary with a list of files beneath it with their modes and if there added(A), deleted(D) or modified(M);
$ git whatchanged f31a441398fb7834fde24c5b0c2974182a431363

I know this answer doesn't really match "with no extraneous information.", but I still think this list is more useful then just the filenames.
List all files in a commit tree:
git ls-tree --name-only --full-tree a21e610
If you want to get list of changed files:
git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r <commit-ish>
If you want to get list of all files in a commit, you can use
git ls-tree --name-only -r <commit-ish>
Use simple one line command, if you just want the list of files changed in the last commit:
git diff HEAD~1 --name-only
Simplest form:
git show --stat (hash)
That's easier to remember and it will give you all the information you need.
If you really want only the names of the files you could add the --name-only option.
git show --stat --name-only (hash)
If you want to get list of changed files:
git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r <commit-ish>
If you want to get list of all files in a commit, you can use
git ls-tree --name-only -r <commit-ish>
I'll just assume that gitk is not desired for this. In that case, try git show --name-only <sha>.
Display the log.
COMMIT can be blank ("") or the sha-1 or the sha-1 shortened.
git log COMMIT -1 --name-only
This will list just the files, very useful for further processing.
git log COMMIT -1 --name-only --pretty=format:"" | grep "[^\s]"
Use simple one line command, if you just want the list of files changed in the last commit:
git diff HEAD~1 --name-only
I like this:
git diff --name-status <SHA1> <SHA1>^
OK, there are couple of ways to show all files in a particular commit...
To reduce the info and show only names of the files which committed, you simply can add --name-only or --name-status flag..., these flags just show you the file names which are different from previous commits as you want...
So you can do git diff followed by --name-only, with two commit hashes after <sha0> <sha1>, something like below:
git diff --name-only 5f12f15 kag9f02
I also create the below image to show all steps to go through in these situation:
I like to use
git show --stat <SHA1>^..<SHA2>
There is a simple trick to view as a file listing, just add : after the hash.
git show 9d3a52c474:
You can then drill in,
git show 9d3a52c474:someDir/someOtherDir
If you hit a file you'll get the raw version of the file; which sometimes is what you want if you're only looking for a nice reference or key pieces of code (diffs can make everything a mess),
git show 9d3a52c474:someDir/someOtherDir/somefile
Only drawback of this method is that it doesn't easily show a tree of files.
$ git log 88ee8^..88ee8 --name-only --pretty="format:"
Found a perfect answer to this:
git show --name-status --oneline <commit-hash>
So that I can know
which files were just modified M
Which files were newly added , A
Which files were deleted , D
A combination of "git show --stat" (thanks Ryan) and a couple of sed commands should trim the data down for you:
git show --stat <SHA1> | sed -n "/ [\w]\*|/p" | sed "s/|.\*$//"
That will produce just the list of modified files.
Recently I needed to list all changed files between two commits. So I used this (also *nix specific) command
git show --pretty="format:" --name-only START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT | sort | uniq
Update: Or as Ethan points out below
git diff --name-only START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT
Using --name-status will also include the change (added, modified, deleted etc) next to each file
git diff --name-status START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT
List the files that changed in a commit:
git diff --name-only SHA1^ SHA1
This doesn't show log messages, extra newlines, or any other clutter. This works for any commit, not just the current one. Not sure why it hasn't quite been mentioned yet, so I'm adding it.
Only the file list (not even commit message):
git show --name-only --pretty=format:
E.g. open all changed files in your editor:
git show --name-only --pretty=format: | xargs "$EDITOR"
You can also do
git log --name-only
and you can browse through various commits, commit messages and the changed files.
Type q to get your prompt back.

Use
git log --name-status
This will show you the commit id, message, the files changed and whether it was modified, created, added or deleted. Somewhat of a all-in-one command.

I use changed alias a quite often. To set it up:
git config --global alias.changed 'show --pretty="format:" --name-only'
then:
git changed (lists files modified in last commit)
git changed bAda55 (lists files modified in this commit)
git changed bAda55..ff0021 (lists files modified between those commits)
Similar commands that may be useful:
git log --name-status --oneline (very similar, but shows what actually happened M/C/D)
