![]() Back when the core tutorial was written, `log` and `whatchanged` were scripted Porcelains. In the "Inspecting Changes" section that talks about the plumbing commands in the diff family, it made sense to use `log` and `whatchanged` as good examples of the use of these plumbing commands, and because even these scripted Porcelains were novelty (there wasn't the new end-user tutorial written), it made some sense to illustrate uses of the `git log` (and `git whatchanged`) scripted Porcelain commands. But we no longer have scripted `log` and `whatchanged` to serve as examples, and this document is not where the end users learn what `git log` command is about. Stop at briefly mentioning the possibility of combining rev-list with diff-tree to build your own log, and leave the end-user documentation of `log` to the new tutorial and the user manual. Also resurrect the last version of `git-log`, `git-whatchanged`, and `git-show` to serve as examples to contrib/examples/ directory. While at it, remove 'whatchanged' from a list of sample commands that are affected by GIT_FLUSH environment variable. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list but as a list of typical ones, and an old command that is kept primarily for backward compatibility does not belong to it.

These are original scripted implementations, kept primarily for their reference value to any aspiring plumbing users who want to learn how pieces can be fit together.
