information for a specified file. The information includes the commit hash,
author, and commit message.

Arguments
- filepath
A character string specifying the path to the file for which
commit information is to be retrieved.

The default is 1, which retrieves the most recent commit information.

and message for the last N commits.
Note

the shell() function.
