# The `git log` command

Git tracks changes to a project by maintaining a chain of snapshots or commits. If you are working on a collaborative project, you will find that your repository will have commits from different contributors. The `git log` command lets you view the commit history for your project.

Entering the `git log` command in your terminal will allow you to view a list of commits or snapshots that will be sorted based on the time they were created with the latest one at the very top.

Let’s take a deeper look at the commit structure and see how we can view our commit history using the Git log command.
