If you want to see all changes to the file between the two commits on a commit-by-commit basis, you can also do

git log -u $start_commit..$end_commit -- path/to/file

Is there a short-hand for referring to the first commit in Git?

There are shorthands for going back from HEAD, but not for the initial commit, AFAICT.

I often want to do this when rebasing, and have come to tagging the initial commit in my repos with INITIAL.

Is there a better syntax I'm missing?

How to change default git commit message?

I have added some changes on commit message in prepare-commit-msg file and then I exec this command 

git config --global commit.template .git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg

After that when I do git commit I receive something like this 

40 lines of my changes and then  

# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting # with # will be ignored, 
  and an empty message aborts the commit. # Explicit paths specified without -i nor -o; 
  assuming --only paths... # On branch master # Changes to be committed: # # modified: test #

Question is there any chance to show this default message on the top? Or better permanently remove this message?
