# Show The diffstat Summary Of A Commit
Use the `--stat` flag when running `git show` on a commit to see the
`diffstat` summary of that commit. For instance, this is what I get for a
recent commit to [delve](https://github.com/derekparker/delve):
```bash
$ git show 8a1f36a1ce --stat
commit 8a1f36a1ce71d708d1d82afbc2191de9aefba021

The following is a description of the `diffstat` program
> This program reads the output of diff and displays a histogram of the
> insertions, deletions, and modifications per-file.
See `man git-show` and `man diffstat` for more details.
