Finding files which changed between git revisions

We’ve - oVirt Node - now got a jenkins job which does some basic static checks on our python code.

Checking the few tens of files takes roughly minute. But in a hassle to save even more energy, we want the checks to be only performed on the changed files. And not the whole source tree.

The following git command will list all the files (relative to the git tree root) which changed between the two revisions (HEAD~1 and HEAD, so during the last commit):

$ git diff --name-only HEAD~1..HEAD
