Tom runs the clone command and creates a new file called string.c. He uses the git log command to find out who contributed this file to the repository and why.
[tom@CentOS ~]$ git clone gituser@git.server.com:project.git
The output of the command above is as follows:
Remote: /home/tom/project/.git/ remote: Initialized empty Git repository in /home/tom/project/.git/ Counting objects: six completed.
remote: Object compression: 100% (4/4), completed.
Objects received: 100% (6/6), 726 bytes, completed.
total 6 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0),
The Clone command creates a new directory within the current working directory. He executes the git log command after changing the directory to the newly formed directory.
[tom@CentOS ~]$ cd project/
[tom@CentOS project]$ git log
The output of the command above is as follows:

The initial commitment
After looking at the log, he discovers that Jerry added the string.c file to support fundamental string operations. Jerry's coding has piqued his interest. So he opens string.c in a text editor and detects a flaw right away. Jerry does not use a constant pointer in his strlen method. As a result, he chooses to change Jerry's code. The code looks like this once it's been modified:
[tom@CentOS project]$ git diff
The output of the command above is as follows:
He commits his change after testing it.
[tom@CentOS project]$ git status -s
M string.c
?? string
[tom@CentOS project]$ git add string.c
[tom@CentOS project]$ git commit -m 'Changed char pointer to const char pointer.'
