See + the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each + format. When omitted, the format 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. + +--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. + +--no-notes:: +--show-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` nor `--oneline` option is + given on the command line. ++ +With an optional argument, add this ref to the list of notes. The ref +is taken to be in `refs/notes/` if it is not qualified. + +--[no-]standard-notes:: + Enable or disable populating the notes ref list from the + 'core.notesRef' and 'notes.displayRef' variables (or + corresponding environment overrides). Enabled by default. + See linkgit:git-config[1]. |
