This command is being removed because it was supplanted by git-log(1) a long while ago. Both commands use the same machinery, just with different defaults.

You can replace it with git log in this way:

• Given: git whatchanged <opts>
• Replace with: git log <opts> --no-merges --raw

Additionally for the sake of readability, you might have more use for --stat or --name-only rather than --raw if you are only reading the output (not feeding the output to another program).
