We forgot to list "tformat:<string>" when enumerating possible values that "--pretty=<format>" can take. It was not described that "--pretty='string with %s placeholder'" that is not understood is DWIMmed as "--pretty=tformat:<that string>". Further, it was unclear what "When omitted, defaults to 'medium'" was meant. Is it "When --pretty=<something> was not given at all", or is it "When --pretty is given without =<something>"? Clarify that it is the latter. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

--pretty[=<format>]::
|
|
--format=<format>::
|
|
|
|
Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
|
|
where '<format>' can be one of 'oneline', 'short', 'medium',
|
|
'full', 'fuller', 'email', 'raw', 'format:<string>'
|
|
and 'tformat:<string>'. When '<format>' is none of the above,
|
|
and has '%placeholder' in it, it acts as if
|
|
'--pretty=tformat:<format>' were given.
|
|
+
|
|
See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each
|
|
format. When '=<format>' part is omitted, it defaults to 'medium'.
|
|
+
|
|
Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository
|
|
configuration (see linkgit:git-config[1]).
|
|
|
|
--abbrev-commit::
|
|
Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
|
|
name, show only a partial prefix. Non default number of
|
|
digits can be specified with "--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies
|
|
diff output, if it is displayed).
|
|
+
|
|
This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
|
|
people using 80-column terminals.
|
|
|
|
--no-abbrev-commit::
|
|
Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates
|
|
`--abbrev-commit` and those options which imply it such as
|
|
"--oneline". It also overrides the 'log.abbrevCommit' variable.
|
|
|
|
--oneline::
|
|
This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit"
|
|
used together.
|
|
|
|
--encoding=<encoding>::
|
|
The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message
|
|
in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
|
|
command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
|
|
preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
|
|
defaults to UTF-8.
|
|
|
|
--notes[=<ref>]::
|
|
Show the notes (see linkgit:git-notes[1]) that annotate the
|
|
commit, when showing the commit log message. This is the default
|
|
for `git log`, `git show` and `git whatchanged` commands when
|
|
there is no `--pretty`, `--format`, or `--oneline` option given
|
|
on the command line.
|
|
+
|
|
By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the
|
|
'core.notesRef' and 'notes.displayRef' variables (or corresponding
|
|
environment overrides). See linkgit:git-config[1] for more details.
|
|
+
|
|
With an optional '<ref>' argument, show this notes ref instead of the
|
|
default notes ref(s). The ref is taken to be in `refs/notes/` if it
|
|
is not qualified.
|
|
+
|
|
Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are
|
|
being displayed. Examples: "--notes=foo" will show only notes from
|
|
"refs/notes/foo"; "--notes=foo --notes" will show both notes from
|
|
"refs/notes/foo" and from the default notes ref(s).
|
|
|
|
--no-notes::
|
|
Do not show notes. This negates the above `--notes` option, by
|
|
resetting the list of notes refs from which notes are shown.
|
|
Options are parsed in the order given on the command line, so e.g.
|
|
"--notes --notes=foo --no-notes --notes=bar" will only show notes
|
|
from "refs/notes/bar".
|
|
|
|
--show-notes[=<ref>]::
|
|
--[no-]standard-notes::
|
|
These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes
|
|
options instead.
|
|
|
|
--show-signature::
|
|
Check the validity of a signed commit object by passing the signature
|
|
to `gpg --verify` and show the output.
