git_blame_deleted_lines.md

If you want to find out the commits that changed a line with a given string:

git log -S string ./file

Eg. One word: git log -S deleted_method_name ./app/models/accounts/account.rb Multiple words: git log -S "def deleted_method_name" ./app/models/accounts/account.rb

Use -G for regex pattern matching
