git whatchanged --author="author regexp" --diff-filter=A --no-commit-id --name-only

Better methods are likely to be available.

Try to use below command:

 git whatchanged --diff-filter=A --author=AUTHOR --pretty=format:%an | awk '{print $6}'

According to the current documentation (v2.41.0), new users are encouraged to use git-log instead of git-whatchanged.

Here's the modified version of the originally accepted answer from 12 years ago:

git log --author=AUTHOR --format="" --diff-filter=A --name-only --no-commit-id
