Git: want to iterate through all commits on branch, and list files in each commit

by

Something like:

for commit in $(git rev-list $branch)
do
    if git ls-tree --name-only -r $commit | grep -q '\.hbm\.xml$'; then
        echo $commit
        exit 0
    fi
done

Note that git show will only list files which have changed in that commit, if you want to know whether there is a path that matches a particular pattern in a commit you need to use something like git ls-tree.
