PRETTY FORMATS
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
If the commit is a merge, and if the pretty-format
|
|
is not 'oneline', 'email' or 'raw', an additional line is
|
|
inserted before the 'Author:' line. This line begins with
|
|
"Merge: " and the hashes of ancestral commits are printed,
|
|
separated by spaces. Note that the listed commits may not
|
|
necessarily be the list of the *direct* parent commits if you
|
|
have limited your view of history: for example, if you are
|
|
only interested in changes related to a certain directory or
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
There are several built-in formats, and you can define
|
|
additional formats by setting a pretty.<name>
|
|
config option to either another format name, or a
|
|
'format:' string, as described below (see
|
|
linkgit:git-config[1]). Here are the details of the
|
|
built-in formats:
|
|
|
|
* 'oneline'
|
|
|
|
<hash> <title-line>
|
|
+
|
|
This is designed to be as compact as possible.
|
|
|
|
* 'short'
|
|
|
|
commit <hash>
|
|
Author: <author>
|
|
|
|
<title-line>
|
|
|
|
* 'medium'
|
|
|
|
commit <hash>
|
|
Author: <author>
|
|
Date: <author-date>
|
|
|
|
<title-line>
|
|
|
|
<full-commit-message>
|
|
|
|
* 'full'
|
|
|
|
commit <hash>
|
|
Author: <author>
|
|
Commit: <committer>
|
|
|
|
<title-line>
|
|
|
|
<full-commit-message>
|
|
|
|
* 'fuller'
|
|
|
|
commit <hash>
|
|
Author: <author>
|
|
AuthorDate: <author-date>
|
|
Commit: <committer>
|
|
CommitDate: <committer-date>
|
|
|
|
<title-line>
|
|
|
|
<full-commit-message>
|
|
|
|
* 'reference'
|
|
|
|
<abbrev-hash> (<title-line>, <short-author-date>)
|
|
+
|
|
This format is used to refer to another commit in a commit message and
|
|
is the same as `--pretty='format:%C(auto)%h (%s, %ad)'`. By default,
|
|
the date is formatted with `--date=short` unless another `--date` option
|
|
is explicitly specified. As with any `format:` with format
|
|
placeholders, its output is not affected by other options like
|
|
`--decorate` and `--walk-reflogs`.
|
|
|
|
* 'email'
|
|
|
|
From <hash> <date>
|
|
From: <author>
|
|
Date: <author-date>
|
|
Subject: [PATCH] <title-line>
|
|
|
|
<full-commit-message>
|
|
|
|
* 'mboxrd'
|
|
+
|
|
Like 'email', but lines in the commit message starting with "From "
|
|
(preceded by zero or more ">") are quoted with ">" so they aren't
|
|
confused as starting a new commit.
|
|
|
|
* 'raw'
|
|
+
|
|
The 'raw' format shows the entire commit exactly as
|
|
stored in the commit object. Notably, the hashes are
|
|
displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or
|
|
--no-abbrev are used, and 'parents' information show the
|
|
true parent commits, without taking grafts or history
|
|
simplification into account. Note that this format affects the way
|
|
commits are displayed, but not the way the diff is shown e.g. with
|
|
`git log --raw`. To get full object names in a raw diff format,
|
|
use `--no-abbrev`.
|
|
|
|
* 'format:<format-string>'
|
|
+
|
|
The 'format:<format-string>' format allows you to specify which information
|
|
you want to show. It works a little bit like printf format,
|
|
with the notable exception that you get a newline with '%n'
|
|
instead of '\n'.
|
|
+
|
|
E.g, 'format:"The author of %h was %an, %ar%nThe title was >>%s<<%n"'
|
|
would show something like this:
|
|
+
|
|
-------
|
|
The author of fe6e0ee was Junio C Hamano, 23 hours ago
|
|
The title was >>t4119: test autocomputing -p<n> for traditional diff input.<<
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
+
|
|
The placeholders are:
|
|
|
|
- Placeholders that expand to a single literal character:
|
|
'%n':: newline
|
|
'%%':: a raw '%'
|
|
'%x00':: print a byte from a hex code
|
|
|
|
- Placeholders that affect formatting of later placeholders:
|
|
'%Cred':: switch color to red
|
|
'%Cgreen':: switch color to green
|
|
'%Cblue':: switch color to blue
|
|
'%Creset':: reset color
|
|
'%C(...)':: color specification, as described under Values in the
|
|
"CONFIGURATION FILE" section of linkgit:git-config[1]. By
|
|
default, colors are shown only when enabled for log output
|
|
(by `color.diff`, `color.ui`, or `--color`, and respecting
|
|
the `auto` settings of the former if we are going to a
|
|
terminal). `%C(auto,...)` is accepted as a historical
|
|
synonym for the default (e.g., `%C(auto,red)`). Specifying
|
|
`%C(always,...)` will show the colors even when color is
|
|
not otherwise enabled (though consider just using
|
|
`--color=always` to enable color for the whole output,
|
|
including this format and anything else git might color).
|
|
`auto` alone (i.e. `%C(auto)`) will turn on auto coloring
|
|
on the next placeholders until the color is switched
|
|
again.
|
|
'%m':: left (`<`), right (`>`) or boundary (`-`) mark
|
|
'%w([<w>[,<i1>[,<i2>]]])':: switch line wrapping, like the -w option of
|
|
linkgit:git-shortlog[1].
|
|
'%<(<N>[,trunc|ltrunc|mtrunc])':: make the next placeholder take at
|
|
least N columns, padding spaces on
|
|
the right if necessary. Optionally
|
|
truncate at the beginning (ltrunc),
|
|
the middle (mtrunc) or the end
|
|
(trunc) if the output is longer than
|
|
N columns. Note that truncating
|
|
only works correctly with N >= 2.
|
|
'%<|(<N>)':: make the next placeholder take at least until Nth
|
|
columns, padding spaces on the right if necessary
|
|
'%>(<N>)', '%>|(<N>)':: similar to '%<(<N>)', '%<|(<N>)' respectively,
|
|
but padding spaces on the left
|
|
'%>>(<N>)', '%>>|(<N>)':: similar to '%>(<N>)', '%>|(<N>)'
|
|
respectively, except that if the next
|
|
placeholder takes more spaces than given and
|
|
there are spaces on its left, use those
|
|
spaces
|
|
'%><(<N>)', '%><|(<N>)':: similar to '%<(<N>)', '%<|(<N>)'
|
|
respectively, but padding both sides
|
|
(i.e. the text is centered)
|
|
|
|
- Placeholders that expand to information extracted from the commit:
|
|
'%H':: commit hash
|
|
'%h':: abbreviated commit hash
|
|
'%T':: tree hash
|
|
'%t':: abbreviated tree hash

|
|
'%aL':: author local-part (see '%al') respecting .mailmap, see
|
|
linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
|
|
'%ad':: author date (format respects --date= option)
|
|
'%aD':: author date, RFC2822 style
|
|
'%ar':: author date, relative

|
|

|
|
linkgit:git-rev-list[1])
|
|
'%cn':: committer name
|
|
'%cN':: committer name (respecting .mailmap, see

|
|
'%cl':: committer email local-part (the part before the '@' sign)
|
|
'%cL':: committer local-part (see '%cl') respecting .mailmap, see

|
|
'%cd':: committer date (format respects --date= option)
|
|
'%cD':: committer date, RFC2822 style
|
|

|
|

'%cI':: committer date, strict ISO 8601 format
|
|

|
|
'%ch':: committer date, human style (like the `--date=human` option of
|
|
linkgit:git-rev-list[1])
|
|
'%d':: ref names, like the --decorate option of linkgit:git-log[1]
|
|
'%D':: ref names without the " (", ")" wrapping.
|
|
'%(describe[:options])':: human-readable name, like
|
|
linkgit:git-describe[1]; empty string for
|
|
undescribable commits. The `describe` string
|
|
may be followed by a colon and zero or more
|
|
comma-separated options. Descriptions can be
|
|
inconsistent when tags are added or removed at
|
|
the same time.
|
|
+
|
|
** 'tags[=<bool-value>]': Instead of only considering annotated tags,
|
|
consider lightweight tags as well.
|
|
** 'abbrev=<number>': Instead of using the default number of hexadecimal digits
|
|
(which will vary according to the number of objects in the repository with a
|
|
default of 7) of the abbreviated object name, use <number> digits, or as many
|
|
digits as needed to form a unique object name.
|
|
** 'match=<pattern>': Only consider tags matching the given
|
|
`glob(7)` pattern, excluding the "refs/tags/" prefix.
|
|
** 'exclude=<pattern>': Do not consider tags matching the given
|
|
`glob(7)` pattern, excluding the "refs/tags/" prefix.
|
|
|
|
'%S':: ref name given on the command line by which the commit was reached
|
|
(like `git log --source`), only works with `git log`
|
|
'%e':: encoding
|
|
'%s':: subject
|
|
'%f':: sanitized subject line, suitable for a filename
|
|
'%b':: body
|
|
'%B':: raw body (unwrapped subject and body)
|
|
ifndef::git-rev-list[]
|
|
'%N':: commit notes
|
|
endif::git-rev-list[]
|
|
'%GG':: raw verification message from GPG for a signed commit
|
|
'%G?':: show "G" for a good (valid) signature,
|
|
"B" for a bad signature,
|
|
"U" for a good signature with unknown validity,
|
|
"X" for a good signature that has expired,
|
|
"Y" for a good signature made by an expired key,
|
|
"R" for a good signature made by a revoked key,
|
|
"E" if the signature cannot be checked (e.g. missing key)
|
|
and "N" for no signature
|
|
'%GS':: show the name of the signer for a signed commit
|
|
'%GK':: show the key used to sign a signed commit
|
|
'%GF':: show the fingerprint of the key used to sign a signed commit
|
|
'%GP':: show the fingerprint of the primary key whose subkey was used
|
|
to sign a signed commit
|
|
'%GT':: show the trust level for the key used to sign a signed commit
|
|
'%gD':: reflog selector, e.g., `refs/stash@{1}` or `refs/stash@{2
|
|
minutes ago}`; the format follows the rules described for the
|
|
`-g` option. The portion before the `@` is the refname as
|
|
given on the command line (so `git log -g refs/heads/master`
|
|
would yield `refs/heads/master@{0}`).
|
|
'%gd':: shortened reflog selector; same as `%gD`, but the refname
|
|
portion is shortened for human readability (so
|
|
`refs/heads/master` becomes just `master`).
|
|
'%gn':: reflog identity name
|
|
'%gN':: reflog identity name (respecting .mailmap, see
|
|
linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
|
|
'%ge':: reflog identity email
|
|
'%gE':: reflog identity email (respecting .mailmap, see
|
|
linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
|
|
'%gs':: reflog subject
|
|
'%(trailers[:options])':: display the trailers of the body as
|
|
interpreted by
|
|
linkgit:git-interpret-trailers[1]. The
|
|
`trailers` string may be followed by a colon
|
|
and zero or more comma-separated options.
|
|
If any option is provided multiple times the
|
|
last occurrence wins.
|
|
+
|
|
** 'key=<key>': only show trailers with specified <key>. Matching is done
|
|
case-insensitively and trailing colon is optional. If option is
|
|
given multiple times trailer lines matching any of the keys are
|
|
shown. This option automatically enables the `only` option so that
|
|
non-trailer lines in the trailer block are hidden. If that is not
|
|
desired it can be disabled with `only=false`. E.g.,
|
|
`%(trailers:key=Reviewed-by)` shows trailer lines with key
|
|
`Reviewed-by`.
|
|
** 'only[=<bool>]': select whether non-trailer lines from the trailer
|
|
block should be included.
|
|
** 'separator=<sep>': specify a separator inserted between trailer
|
|
lines. When this option is not given each trailer line is
|
|
terminated with a line feed character. The string <sep> may contain
|
|
the literal formatting codes described above. To use comma as
|
|
separator one must use `%x2C` as it would otherwise be parsed as
|
|
next option. E.g., `%(trailers:key=Ticket,separator=%x2C )`
|
|
shows all trailer lines whose key is "Ticket" separated by a comma
|
|
and a space.
|
|
** 'unfold[=<bool>]': make it behave as if interpret-trailer's `--unfold`
|
|
option was given. E.g.,
|
|
`%(trailers:only,unfold=true)` unfolds and shows all trailer lines.
|
|
** 'keyonly[=<bool>]': only show the key part of the trailer.
|
|
** 'valueonly[=<bool>]': only show the value part of the trailer.
|
|
** 'key_value_separator=<sep>': specify a separator inserted between
|
|
trailer lines. When this option is not given each trailer key-value
|
|
pair is separated by ": ". Otherwise it shares the same semantics
|
|
as 'separator=<sep>' above.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Some placeholders may depend on other options given to the
|
|
revision traversal engine. For example, the `%g*` reflog options will
|
|
insert an empty string unless we are traversing reflog entries (e.g., by
|
|
`git log -g`). The `%d` and `%D` placeholders will use the "short"
|
|
decoration format if `--decorate` was not already provided on the command
|
|
line.
|
|
|
|
The boolean options accept an optional value `[=<bool-value>]`. The values
|
|
`true`, `false`, `on`, `off` etc. are all accepted. See the "boolean"
|
|
sub-section in "EXAMPLES" in linkgit:git-config[1]. If a boolean
|
|
option is given with no value, it's enabled.
|
|
|
|
If you add a `+` (plus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, a line-feed
|
|
is inserted immediately before the expansion if and only if the
|
|
placeholder expands to a non-empty string.
|
|
|
|
If you add a `-` (minus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, all consecutive
|
|
line-feeds immediately preceding the expansion are deleted if and only if the
|
|
placeholder expands to an empty string.
|
|
|
|
If you add a ` ` (space) after '%' of a placeholder, a space
|
|
is inserted immediately before the expansion if and only if the
|
|
placeholder expands to a non-empty string.
|
|
|
|
* 'tformat:'
|
|
+
|
|
The 'tformat:' format works exactly like 'format:', except that it
|
|
provides "terminator" semantics instead of "separator" semantics. In
|
|
other words, each commit has the message terminator character (usually a
|
|
newline) appended, rather than a separator placed between entries.
|
|
This means that the final entry of a single-line format will be properly
|
|
terminated with a new line, just as the "oneline" format does.
|
|
For example:
|
|
+
|
|
---------------------
|
|
$ git log -2 --pretty=format:%h 4da45bef \
|
|
| perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'
|
|
4da45be
|
|
7134973 -- NO NEWLINE
|
|
|
|
$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef \
|
|
| perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'
|
|
4da45be
|
|
7134973
|
|
---------------------
|
|
+
|
|
In addition, any unrecognized string that has a `%` in it is interpreted
|
|
as if it has `tformat:` in front of it. For example, these two are
|
|
equivalent:
|
|
+
|
|
---------------------
|
|
$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef
|
|
$ git log -2 --pretty=%h 4da45bef
|
|
---------------------
|
