DESCRIPTION
-----------
Summarizes 'git log' output in a format suitable for inclusion
-in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by author and
-the first line of the commit message will be shown.
+in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by author and title.
Additionally, "[PATCH]" will be stripped from the commit description.
+If no revisions are passed on the command line and either standard input
+is not a terminal or there is no current branch, 'git shortlog' will
+output a summary of the log read from standard input, without
+reference to the current repository.
+
OPTIONS
-------
--email::
Show the email address of each author.
+--format[=<format>]::
+ Instead of the commit subject, use some other information to
+ describe each commit. '<format>' can be any string accepted
+ by the `--format` option of 'git log', such as '* [%h] %s'.
+ (See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section of linkgit:git-log[1].)
+
+ Each pretty-printed commit will be rewrapped before it is shown.
+
-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]::
Linewrap the output by wrapping each line at `width`. The first
line of each entry is indented by `indent1` spaces, and the second
and subsequent lines are indented by `indent2` spaces. `width`,
`indent1`, and `indent2` default to 76, 6 and 9 respectively.
++
+If width is `0` (zero) then indent the lines of the output without wrapping
+them.
