# flox generations history

## NAME

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

## SYNOPSIS

```text theme={null}
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.
