title: Why doesn't git diff work between two dates?
body: <p>I checked out a project from an internal GitLab server using Eclipse, then I pulled all the changes. When I view the history from Eclipse. (Team > show in history), it displays the full history of the project. 
  Now I go to the relevant project from the terminal.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>/home/workspace/ProjectX/</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I am trying to get the differences between 2 dates with the following command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>git diff --name-only master@{2015-10-10}..master@{2015-11-10} &gt; /home/results/ProjectX/Changes.txt
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It wont display any result for that. It displays:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>warning: Log for 'master' only goes back to Tue, 10 Nov 2015.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>How can I get all the differences in that date range?</p>
  
  <p>In addition to that, how does Eclipse request its history from the remote server. If we can run the same command from the terminal, that should work.</p>
