# Git file history **(FREE)**
Git file History provides information about the commit history associated
with a file. To use it:
1. Go to your project's **Repository > Files**.
1. In the upper right corner, select **History**.
When you select **History**, this information is displayed:
If you hover over a commit in the UI, the precise date and time of the commit modification
are shown.
## Associated `git` command
If you're running `git` from the command line, the equivalent command
is `git log <filename>`. For example, if you want to find `history`
information about a `README.md` file in the local directory, run the
following command:
```shell
git log README.md
```
Git displays output similar to the following, which includes the commit
time in UTC format:
```shell
