1--pretty[=<format>]:: 2--format=<format>:: 3 4 Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format, 5 where '<format>' can be one of 'oneline', 'short', 'medium', 6 'full', 'fuller', 'email', 'raw' and 'format:<string>'. See 7 the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each 8 format. When omitted, the format defaults to 'medium'. 9+ 10Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository 11configuration (see linkgit:git-config[1]). 12 13--abbrev-commit:: 14 Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object 15 name, show only a partial prefix. Non default number of 16 digits can be specified with "--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies 17 diff output, if it is displayed). 18+ 19This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for 20people using 80-column terminals. 21 22--oneline:: 23 This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit" 24 used together. 25 26--encoding[=<encoding>]:: 27 The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message 28 in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the 29 command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding 30 preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this 31 defaults to UTF-8. 32 33--notes[=<ref>]:: 34 Show the notes (see linkgit:git-notes[1]) that annotate the 35 commit, when showing the commit log message. This is the default 36 for `git log`, `git show` and `git whatchanged` commands when 37 there is no `--pretty`, `--format` nor `--oneline` option given 38 on the command line. 39+ 40By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the 41'core.notesRef' and 'notes.displayRef' variables (or corresponding 42environment overrides). See linkgit:git-config[1] for more details. 43+ 44With an optional '<ref>' argument, show this notes ref instead of the 45default notes ref(s). The ref is taken to be in `refs/notes/` if it 46is not qualified. 47+ 48Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are 49being displayed. Examples: "--notes=foo" will show only notes from 50"refs/notes/foo"; "--notes=foo --notes" will show both notes from 51"refs/notes/foo" and from the default notes ref(s). 52 53--no-notes:: 54 Do not show notes. This negates the above `--notes` option, by 55 resetting the list of notes refs from which notes are shown. 56 Options are parsed in the order given on the command line, so e.g. 57 "--notes --notes=foo --no-notes --notes=bar" will only show notes 58 from "refs/notes/bar". 59 60--show-notes[=<ref>]:: 61--[no-]standard-notes:: 62 These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes 63 options instead.
