  Software repositories such as Git have become a relevant source of
information for software engineer researcher. For instance, the detection of
Commits that fulfill a given criterion (e.g., bugfixing commits) is one of the
most frequent tasks done to understand the software evolution. However, to our
knowledge, there is not open-source tools that, given a Git repository, returns
all the instances of a given change pattern. In this paper we present Coming, a
tool that takes an input a Git repository and mines instances of change
patterns on each commit. For that, Coming computes fine-grained changes between
two consecutive revisions, analyzes those changes to detect if they correspond
to an instance of a change pattern (specified by the user using XML), and
finally, after analyzing all the commits, it presents a) the frequency of code
changes and b) the instances found on each commit. We evaluate Coming on a set
of 28 pairs of revisions from Defects4J, finding instances of change patterns
that involve If conditions on 26 of them.
