DESCRIPTION
Synonym for `--date=relative`.
---date={relative,local,default}::
+--date={relative,local,default,iso,rfc}::
Only takes effect for dates shown in human-readable format, such
as when using "--pretty".
+
`--date=local` shows timestamps in user's local timezone.
+
+`--date=iso` (or `--date=iso8601`) shows timestamps in ISO 8601 format.
++
+`--date=rfc` (or `--date=rfc2822`) shows timestamps in RFC 2822
+format, often found in E-mail messages.
++
+`--date=short` shows only date but not time, in `YYYY-MM-DD` format.
++
`--date=default` shows timestamps in the original timezone
(either committer's or author's).
Print the parents of the commit.
+--timestamp::
+ Print the raw commit timestamp.
+
--left-right::
Mark which side of a symmetric diff a commit is reachable from.
Limit the commits output to ones with log message that
matches the specified pattern (regular expression).
+-i, --regexp-ignore-case::
+
+ Match the regexp limiting patterns without regard to letters case.
+
+-E, --extended-regexp::
+
+ Consider the limiting patterns to be extended regular expressions
+ instead of the default basic regular expressions.
+
--remove-empty::
Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.
+--full-history::
+
+ Show also parts of history irrelevant to current state of a given
+ path. This turns off history simplification, which removed merges
+ which didn't change anything at all at some child. It will still actually
+ simplify away merges that didn't change anything at all into either
+ child.
+
--no-merges::
Do not print commits with more than one parent.
In addition to the '<commit>' listed on the command
line, read them from the standard input.
+--quiet::
+
+ Don't print anything to standard output. This form of
+ git-rev-list is primarily meant to allow the caller to
+ test the exit status to see if a range of objects is fully
+ connected (or not). It is faster than redirecting stdout
+ to /dev/null as the output does not have to be formatted.
+
--cherry-pick::
Omit any commit that introduces the same change as
+
With '\--pretty' format other than oneline (for obvious reasons),
this causes the output to have two extra lines of information
-taken from the reflog. By default, 'commit@{Nth}' notation is
+taken from the reflog. By default, 'commit@\{Nth}' notation is
used in the output. When the starting commit is specified as
-'commit@{now}', output also uses 'commit@{timestamp}' notation
+'commit@{now}', output also uses 'commit@\{timestamp}' notation
instead. Under '\--pretty=oneline', the commit message is
prefixed with this information on the same line.
+Cannot be combined with '\--reverse'.
+
--merge::
After a failed merge, show refs that touch files having a
turns out to be bad to `bisect_bad`, and the number of commits
we are bisecting right now to `bisect_all`.
+--bisect-all::
+
+This outputs all the commit objects between the included and excluded
+commits, ordered by their distance to the included and excluded
+commits. The farthest from them is displayed first. (This is the only
+one displayed by `--bisect`.)
+
+This is useful because it makes it easy to choose a good commit to
+test when you want to avoid to test some of them for some reason (they
+may not compile for example).
+
+This option can be used along with `--bisect-vars`, in this case,
+after all the sorted commit objects, there will be the same text as if
+`--bisect-vars` had been used alone.
+
--
Commit Ordering
--reverse::
Output the commits in reverse order.
+ Cannot be combined with '\--walk-reflogs'.
Object Traversal
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Only useful with '--objects'; print the object IDs that are not
in packs.
+--no-walk::
+
+ Only show the given revs, but do not traverse their ancestors.
+
+--do-walk::
+
+ Overrides a previous --no-walk.
