Map Recent Release Commits

You need to see which tagged release commits exist before choosing a rollback target.

Command

cd /lab/git-recovery-rollback && git log --oneline --decorate --graph --all -8

What changed

Nothing changes. Git prints the recent commit graph with tags.

Danger

safe

When to use it

Use during rollback planning when you need the shape of recent releases quickly.

When not to use it

Do not rely on commit order alone when your deploy system can point at a different artifact or symlink.

Undo or recovery

No undo needed because this command is read-only.

Expected output

A compact commit graph showing release-2026-06-25-1030 and earlier release tags.

Map release history fast.

Show the recent graph with decorations. The tags tell you which commits are rollback candidates.
