NAME

flox-generations-history - Show the change log for the current environment

​
SYNOPSIS

flox [<general-options>] generations history
     [-d=<path> | -r=<owner/name>]
     [-u]
     [--json]
     [--no-pager]

​
DESCRIPTION

Show the change log for the current environment. For environments pushed to FloxHub, every modification to the environment creates a new generation of the environment. It’s also possible to change the current generation by using flox generations switch or flox generations rollback. flox generations history prints what generation has been the current generation over time.

​
OPTIONS

--json
Render generations as JSON. Attention: the output is not guaranteed to be stable. --no-pager
Explicitly disable paged output

​
Environment Options

If no environment is specified for an environment command, the environment in the current directory or the active environment that was last activated is used. -d, --dir
Path containing a .flox/ directory. -r, --reference
A FloxHub environment, specified in the form <owner>/<name>. -D, --default
Use your default environment (<your-user>/default). When unauthenticated in an interactive context, you will be prompted to log in. In non-interactive contexts (e.g., scripts or CI), this flag will fail with an error when authentication is missing. -u, --upstream
Operate on the environment on FloxHub, rather than a local reference.

​
General Options

-h, --help
Prints help information. The following options can be passed when running any flox subcommand but must be specified before the subcommand. -v, --verbose
Increase logging verbosity. Invoke multiple times for increasing detail. -q, --quiet
Silence logs except for errors.
