Thomas Rast 894a9d333e Support showing notes from more than one notes tree
With this patch, you can set notes.displayRef to a glob that points at
your favourite notes refs, e.g.,

[notes]
	displayRef = refs/notes/*

Then git-log and friends will show notes from all trees.

Thanks to Junio C Hamano for lots of feedback, which greatly
influenced the design of the entire series and this commit in
particular.

--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' and 'format:<string>'.
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].
