这里只能看到`test`.`test1`表做了改动，但具体改了什么，就不知道了，那么怎样才能看到到底改了什么呢？从MySQL 5.1.28开始，mysqlbinlog多了个参数–verbose(或-v)，将改动生成带注释的语句，如果使用两次这个参数(如-v -v)，会生成字段的类型、长度、是否为null等属性信息。如下：

mysqlbinlog -v -v mysql-bin.001912

这时能看懂了吧？但还有个问题，BINLOG开头的那些信息还是会显示出来，很难看，能不能去掉呢？答案是肯定的，加–base-output=DECODE-ROWS参数。如下

mysqlbinlog -v -v –base-output=DECODE-ROWS mysql-bin.001912
