* feat: Add pathspec support in git-missing Allow to specify a path to limit the commit difference list. This improvement allows users to focus on changes in specific directories or files when comparing branches for missing commits. * refactor: Improve pathspec handling in git-missing - Change pathspec from string to array to support multiple pathspecs - Remove unnecessary 'shift' command in argument processing loop - Simplify git log command execution by using a single codepath * chore: Update git-missing docs * chore: Fix a typo in git-missing docs

git-missing(1) -- Show commits missing from another branch
SYNOPSIS
git-missing [<first branch>] <second branch> [<git log options>] [[--] <path>...]
DESCRIPTION
Shows commits that are in either of two branches but not both. Useful for seeing what would come across in a merge or push. Optionally, the comparison can be limited to specific paths.
OPTIONS
[<first branch>]
First branch to compare. If not specified, defaults to currently checked out branch.
<second branch>
Second branch to compare.
[<git log options>]
Any flags that should be passed to 'git log', such as --no-merges.
[[--] <path>...]
Optional path specifications (pathspec) to limit the comparison to specific files or directories. For more details about the pathspec syntax, see the pathspec entry in gitglossary[7].
EXAMPLES
Show commits on either my current branch or master but not both:
$ git missing master
< d14b8f0 only on current checked out branch
> 97ef387 only on master
Show commits on either branch foo or branch bar but not both:
$ git missing foo bar
< b8f0d14 only on foo
> f38797e only on bar
Show commits on either my current branch or master but not both, limited to the src/ directory:
$ git missing master -- src/
< ed52989 only on current checked out branch, in src/ directory
> 7988c4b only on master, in src/ directory
