I've seen this question, but it doesn't really address what I need. I know what file I'm interested in; I need to get a list of commits where I've modified that particular file. Is this possible? I work on a team of 6 devs, so there are literally thousands of commits in our repo.

Not really; my question specifically required the file name to be included as an option, which the question your referring to did not answer. – EmmyS May 23 '14 at 19:23

I don't consider that to be a significant difference, especially when [the documentation states that you can restrict the log to an individual path](https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-log.html), but if other people disagree, they can simply vote to reopen the question if it's closed. – May 23 '14 at 19:25

This is actually really simple, just combine --author
with the path of the file that you are interested in.
git log --author="My Name" -- <this_file>
