atomic blame
Show line-level ownership for a tracked text file. Introduced in Atomic 0.20.0.
Verified against CLI 0.20.0.
Synopsis
atomic blame <PATH> [--short]
Description
atomic blame attributes each line of a tracked text file to the change that last touched it. Because Atomic changes are content-addressed and vertices are never deleted, blame resolves against real change identities, not synthesized tree diffs.
Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
<PATH> | File path to attribute (repository-relative) |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--short | Show only the short (12-character) change hash per line |
Examples
# Attribute every line of auth.rs
atomic blame src/auth.rs
# Compact view: change hashes only
atomic blame --short src/auth.rs
# Then inspect the change behind a specific line
atomic change <HASH>
