In Visual Studio 2017, I have a project using Git and would like to generate a list of all changed files within a branch as compared to the master branch. If a file were modified in many commits, it should be listed only once.

I have no preference on how the list is output, so long as I can read it.

If this cannot be accomplished in Visual Studio 2017 directly or with a compatible extension, I would be interested in using a third-party tool if one exists.

This should do it:

git diff --name-only BRANCH master

It will output a list of files that are different between the two branches, relative to the root of the repository.

  • Additionally, this can be output to a file. I'm using Git Bash on Windows 10, so I ran the following command: `git diff --name-only develop master > updates.html` Source: [link](https://stackoverflow.com/a/18997095/1272050) – Josh Cronkhite Jun 01 '17 at 08:14
