GIT-LOG(1)                                       Git Manual                                       GIT-LOG(1)



NAME
       git-log - Show commit logs

SYNOPSIS
       git log [<options>] [<revision range>] [[--] <path>...]


DESCRIPTION
       Shows the commit logs.

       The command takes options applicable to the git rev-list command to control what is shown and how,
       and options applicable to the git diff-* commands to control how the changes each commit introduces
       are shown.

OPTIONS
       --follow
           Continue listing the history of a file beyond renames (works only for a single file).

       --no-decorate, --decorate[=short|full|no]
           Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown. If short is specified, the ref name
           prefixes refs/heads/, refs/tags/ and refs/remotes/ will not be printed. If full is specified, the
           full ref name (including prefix) will be printed. The default option is short.

       --source
           Print out the ref name given on the command line by which each commit was reached.

       --use-mailmap
           Use mailmap file to map author and committer names and email to canonical real names and email
           addresses. See git-shortlog(1).

       --full-diff
           Without this flag, "git log -p <path>..." shows commits that touch the specified paths, and diffs
           about the same specified paths. With this, the full diff is shown for commits that touch the
           specified paths; this means that "<path>..." limits only commits, and doesn't limit diff for
           those commits.

           Note that this affects all diff-based output types, e.g. those produced by --stat etc.

       --log-size
           Before the log message print out its size in bytes. Intended mainly for porcelain tools
           consumption. If Git is unable to produce a valid value size is set to zero. Note that only
           message is considered, if also a diff is shown its size is not included.

       <revision range>
           Show only commits in the specified revision range. When no <revision range> is specified, it
           defaults to HEAD (i.e. the whole history leading to the current commit).  origin..HEAD specifies
           all the commits reachable from the current commit (i.e.  HEAD), but not from origin. For a
           complete list of ways to spell <revision range>, see the "Specifying Ranges" section of
           gitrevisions(7).

       [--] <path>...
           Show only commits that are enough to explain how the files that match the specified paths came to
           be. See "History Simplification" below for details and other simplification modes.

           Paths may need to be prefixed with "-- " to separate them from options or the revision range,
           when confusion arises.

   Commit Limiting
       Besides specifying a range of commits that should be listed using the special notations explained in
       the description, additional commit limiting may be applied.

       Using more options generally further limits the output (e.g. --since=<date1> limits to commits newer
       than <date1>, and using it with --grep=<pattern> further limits to commits whose log message has a
       line that matches <pattern>), unless otherwise noted.

       Note that these are applied before commit ordering and formatting options, such as --reverse.

       -<number>, -n <number>, --max-count=<number>
           Limit the number of commits to output.

       --skip=<number>
           Skip number commits before starting to show the commit output.

       --since=<date>, --after=<date>
           Show commits more recent than a specific date.

       --until=<date>, --before=<date>
           Show commits older than a specific date.

       --author=<pattern>, --committer=<pattern>
           Limit the commits output to ones with author/committer header lines that match the specified
           pattern (regular expression). With more than one --author=<pattern>, commits whose author matches
           any of the given patterns are chosen (similarly for multiple --committer=<pattern>).

       --grep-reflog=<pattern>
           Limit the commits output to ones with reflog entries that match the specified pattern (regular
           expression). With more than one --grep-reflog, commits whose reflog message matches any of the
           given patterns are chosen. It is an error to use this option unless --walk-reflogs is in use.

       --grep=<pattern>
           Limit the commits output to ones with log message that matches the specified pattern (regular
           expression). With more than one --grep=<pattern>, commits whose message matches any of the given
           patterns are chosen (but see --all-match).

           When --show-notes is in effect, the message from the notes as if it is part of the log message.

       --all-match
           Limit the commits output to ones that match all given --grep, instead of ones that match at least
           one.

       -i, --regexp-ignore-case
           Match the regexp limiting patterns without regard to letters case.

       --basic-regexp
           Consider the limiting patterns to be basic regular expressions; this is the default.

       -E, --extended-regexp
           Consider the limiting patterns to be extended regular expressions instead of the default basic
           regular expressions.

       -F, --fixed-strings
           Consider the limiting patterns to be fixed strings (don't interpret pattern as a regular
           expression).

       --perl-regexp
           Consider the limiting patterns to be Perl-compatible regexp. Requires libpcre to be compiled in.

       --remove-empty
           Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.

       --merges
           Print only merge commits. This is exactly the same as --min-parents=2.

       --no-merges
           Do not print commits with more than one parent. This is exactly the same as --max-parents=1.

       --min-parents=<number>, --max-parents=<number>, --no-min-parents, --no-max-parents
           Show only commits which have at least (or at most) that many commits. In particular,
           --max-parents=1 is the same as --no-merges, --min-parents=2 is the same as --merges.
           --max-parents=0 gives all root commits and --min-parents=3 all octopus merges.

           --no-min-parents and --no-max-parents reset these limits (to no limit) again. Equivalent forms
           are --min-parents=0 (any commit has 0 or more parents) and --max-parents=-1 (negative numbers
           denote no upper limit).

       --first-parent
           Follow only the first parent commit upon seeing a merge commit. This option can give a better
           overview when viewing the evolution of a particular topic branch, because merges into a topic
           branch tend to be only about adjusting to updated upstream from time to time, and this option
           allows you to ignore the individual commits brought in to your history by such a merge.

       --not
           Reverses the meaning of the ^ prefix (or lack thereof) for all following revision specifiers, up
           to the next --not.

       --all
           Pretend as if all the refs in refs/ are listed on the command line as <commit>.

       --branches[=<pattern>]
           Pretend as if all the refs in refs/heads are listed on the command line as <commit>. If <pattern>
           is given, limit branches to ones matching given shell glob. If pattern lacks ?, *, or [, /* at
           the end is implied.

       --tags[=<pattern>]
           Pretend as if all the refs in refs/tags are listed on the command line as <commit>. If <pattern>
           is given, limit tags to ones matching given shell glob. If pattern lacks ?, *, or [, /* at the
           end is implied.

       --remotes[=<pattern>]
           Pretend as if all the refs in refs/remotes are listed on the command line as <commit>. If
           <pattern> is given, limit remote-tracking branches to ones matching given shell glob. If pattern
           lacks ?, *, or [, /* at the end is implied.

       --glob=<glob-pattern>
           Pretend as if all the refs matching shell glob <glob-pattern> are listed on the command line as
           <commit>. Leading refs/, is automatically prepended if missing. If pattern lacks ?, *, or [, /*
           at the end is implied.

       --ignore-missing
           Upon seeing an invalid object name in the input, pretend as if the bad input was not given.

       --bisect
           Pretend as if the bad bisection ref refs/bisect/bad was listed and as if it was followed by --not
           and the good bisection refs refs/bisect/good-* on the command line.

       --stdin
           In addition to the <commit> listed on the command line, read them from the standard input. If a
           -- separator is seen, stop reading commits and start reading paths to limit the result.

       --cherry-mark
           Like --cherry-pick (see below) but mark equivalent commits with = rather than omitting them, and
           inequivalent ones with +.

       --cherry-pick
           Omit any commit that introduces the same change as another commit on the "other side" when the
           set of commits are limited with symmetric difference.

           For example, if you have two branches, A and B, a usual way to list all commits on only one side
           of them is with --left-right (see the example below in the description of the --left-right
           option). It however shows the commits that were cherry-picked from the other branch (for example,
           "3rd on b" may be cherry-picked from branch A). With this option, such pairs of commits are
           excluded from the output.

       --left-only, --right-only
           List only commits on the respective side of a symmetric range, i.e. only those which would be
           marked < resp.  > by --left-right.

           For example, --cherry-pick --right-only A...B omits those commits from B which are in A or are
           patch-equivalent to a commit in A. In other words, this lists the + commits from git cherry A B.
           More precisely, --cherry-pick --right-only --no-merges gives the exact list.

       --cherry
           A synonym for --right-only --cherry-mark --no-merges; useful to limit the output to the commits
           on our side and mark those that have been applied to the other side of a forked history with git
           log --cherry upstream...mybranch, similar to git cherry upstream mybranch.

       -g, --walk-reflogs
           Instead of walking the commit ancestry chain, walk reflog entries from the most recent one to
           older ones. When this option is used you cannot specify commits to exclude (that is, ^commit,
           commit1..commit2, nor commit1...commit2 notations cannot be used).

           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 used in
           the output. When the starting commit is specified as commit@{now}, output also uses
           commit@{timestamp} notation instead. Under --pretty=oneline, the commit message is prefixed with
           this information on the same line. This option cannot be combined with --reverse. See also git-reflog(1). gitreflog(1).
           reflog(1).

       --merge
           After a failed merge, show refs that touch files having a conflict and don't exist on all heads
           to merge.

       --boundary
           Output uninteresting commits at the boundary, which are usually not shown.

   History Simplification
       Sometimes you are only interested in parts of the history, for example the commits modifying a
       particular <path>. But there are two parts of History Simplification, one part is selecting the
       commits and the other is how to do it, as there are various strategies to simplify the history.

       The following options select the commits to be shown:

       <paths>
           Commits modifying the given <paths> are selected.

       --simplify-by-decoration
           Commits that are referred by some branch or tag are selected.

       Note that extra commits can be shown to give a meaningful history.

       The following options affect the way the simplification is performed:

       Default mode
           Simplifies the history to the simplest history explaining the final state of the tree. Simplest
           because it prunes some side branches if the end result is the same (i.e. merging branches with
           the same content)

       --full-history
           Same as the default mode, but does not prune some history.

       --dense
           Only the selected commits are shown, plus some to have a meaningful history.

       --sparse
           All commits in the simplified history are shown.

       --simplify-merges
           Additional option to --full-history to remove some needless merges from the resulting history, as
           there are no selected commits contributing to this merge.

       --ancestry-path
           When given a range of commits to display (e.g.  commit1..commit2 or commit2 ^commit1), only
           display commits that exist directly on the ancestry chain between the commit1 and commit2, i.e.
           commits that are both descendants of commit1, and ancestors of commit2.

       A more detailed explanation follows.

       Suppose you specified foo as the <paths>. We shall call commits that modify foo !TREESAME, and the
       rest TREESAME. (In a diff filtered for foo, they look different and equal, respectively.)

       In the following, we will always refer to the same example history to illustrate the differences
       between simplification settings. We assume that you are filtering for a file foo in this commit
       graph:

                     .-A---M---N---O---P
                    /     /   /   /   /
                   I     B   C   D   E
                    \   /   /   /   /
                     `-------------'


       The horizontal line of history A---P is taken to be the first parent of each merge. The commits are:

           I is the initial commit, in which foo exists with contents "asdf", and a file quux exists with
           contents "quux". Initial commits are compared to an empty tree, so I is !TREESAME.

          In A, foo contains just "foo".

           B contains the same change as A. Its merge M is trivial and hence TREESAME to all parents.

           C does not change foo, but its merge N changes it to "foobar", so it is not TREESAME to any
           parent.

           D sets foo to "baz". Its merge O combines the strings from N and D to "foobarbaz"; i.e., it is
           not TREESAME to any parent.

           E changes quux to "xyzzy", and its merge P combines the strings to "quux xyzzy". Despite
           appearing interesting, P is TREESAME to all parents.

       rev-list walks backwards through history, including or excluding commits based on whether
       --full-history and/or parent rewriting (via --parents or --children) are used. The following settings
       are available.

       Default mode
           Commits are included if they are not TREESAME to any parent (though this can be changed, see
           --sparse below). If the commit was a merge, and it was TREESAME to one parent, follow only that
           parent. (Even if there are several TREESAME parents, follow only one of them.) Otherwise, follow
           all parents.

           This results in:

                         .-A---N---O
                        /     /   /
                       I---------D

           Note how the rule to only follow the TREESAME parent, if one is available, removed B from
           consideration entirely.  C was considered via N, but is TREESAME. Root commits are compared to an
           empty tree, so I is !TREESAME.

           Parent/child relations are only visible with --parents, but that does not affect the commits
           selected in default mode, so we have shown the parent lines.

       --full-history without parent rewriting
           This mode differs from the default in one point: always follow all parents of a merge, even if it
           is TREESAME to one of them. Even if more than one side of the merge has commits that are
           included, this does not imply that the merge itself is! In the example, we get

                       I  A  B  N  D  O

           P and M were excluded because they are TREESAME to a parent.  E, C and B were all walked, but
           only B was !TREESAME, so the others do not appear.

           Note that without parent rewriting, it is not really possible to talk about the parent/child
           relationships between the commits, so we show them disconnected.

       --full-history with parent rewriting
           Ordinary commits are only included if they are !TREESAME (though this can be changed, see
           --sparse below).

           Merges are always included. However, their parent list is rewritten: Along each parent, prune
           away commits that are not included themselves. This results in

                         .-A---M---N---O---P
                        /     /   /   /   /
                       I     B   /   D   /
                        \   /   /   /   /
                         `-------------'

           Compare to --full-history without rewriting above. Note that E was pruned away because it is
           TREESAME, but the parent list of P was rewritten to contain E's parent I. The same happened for C
           and N. Note also that P was included despite being TREESAME.

       In addition to the above settings, you can change whether TREESAME affects inclusion:

       --dense
           Commits that are walked are included if they are not TREESAME to any parent.

       --sparse
           All commits that are walked are included.

           Note that without --full-history, this still simplifies merges: if one of the parents is
           TREESAME, we follow only that one, so the other sides of the merge are never walked.

       --simplify-merges
           First, build a history graph in the same way that --full-history with parent rewriting does (see
           above).

           Then simplify each commit C to its replacement C' in the final history according to the following
           rules:

              Set C' to C.

              Replace each parent P of C' with its simplification P'. In the process, drop parents that are
               ancestors of other parents, and remove duplicates.

              If after this parent rewriting, C' is a root or merge commit (has zero or >1 parents), a
               boundary commit, or !TREESAME, it remains. Otherwise, it is replaced with its only parent.

           The effect of this is best shown by way of comparing to --full-history with parent rewriting. The
           example turns into:

                         .-A---M---N---O
                        /     /       /
                       I     B       D
                        \   /       /
                         `---------'

           Note the major differences in N and P over --full-history:

               N's parent list had I removed, because it is an ancestor of the other parent M. Still, N
               remained because it is !TREESAME.

               P's parent list similarly had I removed.  P was then removed completely, because it had one
               parent and is TREESAME.

       Finally, there is a fifth simplification mode available:

       --ancestry-path
           Limit the displayed commits to those directly on the ancestry chain between the "from" and "to"
           commits in the given commit range. I.e. only display commits that are ancestor of the "to"
           commit, and descendants of the "from" commit.

           As an example use case, consider the following commit history:

                           D---E-------F
                          /     \       \
                         B---C---G---H---I---J
                        /                     \
                       A-------K---------------L--M

           A regular D..M computes the set of commits that are ancestors of M, but excludes the ones that
           are ancestors of D. This is useful to see what happened to the history leading to M since D, in
           the sense that "what does M have that did not exist in D". The result in this example would be
           all the commits, except A and B (and D itself, of course).

           When we want to find out what commits in M are contaminated with the bug introduced by D and need
           fixing, however, we might want to view only the subset of D..M that are actually descendants of
           D, i.e. excluding C and K. This is exactly what the --ancestry-path option does. Applied to the
           D..M range, it results in:

                               E-------F
                                \       \
                                 G---H---I---J
                                              \
                                               L--M


       The --simplify-by-decoration option allows you to view only the big picture of the topology of the
       history, by omitting commits that are not referenced by tags. Commits are marked as !TREESAME (in
       other words, kept after history simplification rules described above) if (1) they are referenced by
       tags, or (2) they change the contents of the paths given on the command line. All other commits are
       marked as TREESAME (subject to be simplified away).

   Commit Ordering
       By default, the commits are shown in reverse chronological order.

       --date-order
           Show no parents before all of its children are shown, but otherwise show commits in the commit
           timestamp order.

       --topo-order
           Show no parents before all of its children are shown, and avoid showing commits on multiple lines
           of history intermixed.

           For example, in a commit history like this:

                   ---1----2----4----7
                       \              \
                        3----5----6----8---where 3----5----6----8--where

           where the numbers denote the order of commit timestamps, git rev-list and friends with
           --date-order show the commits in the timestamp order: 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1.

           With --topo-order, they would show 8 6 5 3 7 4 2 1 (or 8 7 4 2 6 5 3 1); some older commits are
           shown before newer ones in order to avoid showing the commits from two parallel development track
           mixed together.

       --reverse
           Output the commits in reverse order. Cannot be combined with --walk-reflogs.

   Object Traversal
       These options are mostly targeted for packing of Git repositories.

       --objects
           Print the object IDs of any object referenced by the listed commits.  --objects foo ^bar thus
           means "send me all object IDs which I need to download if I have the commit object bar, but not
           foo".

       --objects-edge
           Similar to --objects, but also print the IDs of excluded commits prefixed with a "-" character.
           This is used by git-pack-objects(1) to build "thin" pack, which records objects in deltified form
           based on objects contained in these excluded commits to reduce network traffic.

       --unpacked
           Only useful with --objects; print the object IDs that are not in packs.

       --no-walk[=(sorted|unsorted)]
           Only show the given commits, but do not traverse their ancestors. This has no effect if a range
           is specified. If the argument "unsorted" is given, the commits are show in the order they were
           given on the command line. Otherwise (if "sorted" or no argument was given), the commits are show
           in reverse chronological order by commit time.

       --do-walk
           Overrides a previous --no-walk.

   Commit Formatting
       --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>. See the "PRETTY FORMATS"
           section for some additional details for each format. When omitted, the format defaults to medium.

           Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository configuration (see git-config(1)). gitconfig(1)).
           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.

       --no-abbrev-commit
           Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates --abbrev-commit and those
           options which imply it such as "--oneline". It also overrides the log.abbrevCommit variable.

       --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.

       --notes[=<ref>]
           Show the notes (see 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 given on the command line.

           By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the core.notesRef and
           notes.displayRef variables (or corresponding environment overrides). See git-config(1) for more
           details.

           With an optional <ref> argument, show this notes ref instead of the default notes ref(s). The ref
           is taken to be in refs/notes/ if it is not qualified.

           Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are being displayed. Examples:
           "--notes=foo" will show only notes from "refs/notes/foo"; "--notes=foo --notes" will show both
           notes from "refs/notes/foo" and from the default notes ref(s).

       --no-notes
           Do not show notes. This negates the above --notes option, by resetting the list of notes refs
           from which notes are shown. Options are parsed in the order given on the command line, so e.g.
           "--notes --notes=foo --no-notes --notes=bar" will only show notes from "refs/notes/bar".

       --show-notes[=<ref>], --[no-]standard-notes
           These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes options instead.

       --show-signature
           Check the validity of a signed commit object by passing the signature to gpg --verify and show
           the output.

       --relative-date
           Synonym for --date=relative.

       --date=(relative|local|default|iso|rfc|short|raw)
           Only takes effect for dates shown in human-readable format, such as when using "--pretty".
           log.date config variable sets a default value for log command's --date option.

           --date=relative shows dates relative to the current time, e.g. "2 hours ago".

           --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=raw shows the date in the internal raw Git format %s %z format.

           --date=default shows timestamps in the original timezone (either committer's or author's).

       --parents
           Print also the parents of the commit (in the form "commit parent..."). Also enables parent
           rewriting, see History Simplification below.

       --children
           Print also the children of the commit (in the form "commit child..."). Also enables parent
           rewriting, see History Simplification below.

       --left-right
           Mark which side of a symmetric diff a commit is reachable from. Commits from the left side are
           prefixed with < and those from the right with >. If combined with --boundary, those commits are
           prefixed with -.

           For example, if you have this topology:

                            y---b---b  branch B
                           / \ /
                          /   .
                         /   / \
                        o---x---a---a  branch A

           you would get an output like this:

                       $ git rev-list --left-right --boundary --pretty=oneline A...B

                       >bbbbbbb... 3rd on b
                       >bbbbbbb... 2nd on b
                       <aaaaaaa... 3rd on a
                       <aaaaaaa... 2nd on a
                       -yyyyyyy... 1st on b
                       -xxxxxxx... 1st on a


       --graph
           Draw a text-based graphical representation of the commit history on the left hand side of the
           output. This may cause extra lines to be printed in between commits, in order for the graph
           history to be drawn properly.

           This enables parent rewriting, see History Simplification below.

           This implies the --topo-order option by default, but the --date-order option may also be
           specified.

   Diff Formatting
       Below are listed options that control the formatting of diff output. Some of them are specific to
       git-rev-list(1), however other diff options may be given. See git-diff-files(1) for more options.

       -c
           With this option, diff output for a merge commit shows the differences from each of the parents
           to the merge result simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent and the
           result one at a time. Furthermore, it lists only files which were modified from all parents.

       --cc
           This flag implies the -c option and further compresses the patch output by omitting uninteresting
           hunks whose contents in the parents have only two variants and the merge result picks one of them
           without modification.

       -m
           This flag makes the merge commits show the full diff like regular commits; for each merge parent,
           a separate log entry and diff is generated. An exception is that only diff against the first
           parent is shown when --first-parent option is given; in that case, the output represents the
           changes the merge brought into the then-current branch.

       -r
           Show recursive diffs.

       -t
           Show the tree objects in the diff output. This implies -r.

       -s
           Suppress diff output.

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 sha1s 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 git-config(1)). gitconfig(1)).
       config(1)). Here are the details of the built-in formats:

           oneline

               <sha1> <title line>

           This is designed to be as compact as possible.

           short

               commit <sha1>
               Author: <author>

               <title line>

           medium

               commit <sha1>
               Author: <author>
               Date:   <author date>

               <title line>

               <full commit message>

           full

               commit <sha1>
               Author: <author>
               Commit: <committer>

               <title line>

               <full commit message>

           fuller

               commit <sha1>
               Author:     <author>
               AuthorDate: <author date>
               Commit:     <committer>
               CommitDate: <committer date>

               <title line>

               <full commit message>

           email

               From <sha1> <date>
               From: <author>
               Date: <author date>
               Subject: [PATCH] <title line>

               <full commit message>

           raw

           The raw format shows the entire commit exactly as stored in the commit object. Notably, the
           SHA-1s are displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or --no-abbrev are used, and parents
           information show the true parent commits, without taking grafts nor history simplification into
           account.

           format:<string>

           The 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:

               %H: commit hash

               %h: abbreviated commit hash

               %T: tree hash

               %t: abbreviated tree hash

               %P: parent hashes

               %p: abbreviated parent hashes

               %an: author name

               %aN: author name (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %ae: author email

               %aE: author email (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %ad: author date (format respects --date= option)

               %aD: author date, RFC2822 style

               %ar: author date, relative

               %at: author date, UNIX timestamp

               %ai: author date, ISO 8601 format

               %cn: committer name

               %cN: committer name (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %ce: committer email

               %cE: committer email (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %cd: committer date

               %cD: committer date, RFC2822 style

               %cr: committer date, relative

               %ct: committer date, UNIX timestamp

               %ci: committer date, ISO 8601 format

               %d: ref names, like the --decorate option of git-log(1)

               %e: encoding

               %s: subject

               %f: sanitized subject line, suitable for a filename

               %b: body

               %B: raw body (unwrapped subject and body)

               %N: commit notes

               %GG: raw verification message from GPG for a signed commit

               %G?: show "G" for a Good signature, "B" for a Bad signature, "U" for a good, untrusted
               signature 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

               %gD: reflog selector, e.g., refs/stash@{1}

               %gd: shortened reflog selector, e.g., stash@{1}

               %gn: reflog identity name

               %gN: reflog identity name (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %ge: reflog identity email

               %gE: reflog identity email (respecting .mailmap, see git-shortlog(1) or git-blame(1))

               %gs: reflog subject

               %Cred: switch color to red

               %Cgreen: switch color to green

               %Cblue: switch color to blue

               %Creset: reset color

               %C(...): color specification, as described in color.branch.* config option; adding auto, at
               the beginning will emit color only when colors are 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).  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

               %n: newline

               %%: a raw %

               %x__: print a byte from a hex code

               %w([<w>[,<i1>[,<i2>]]]): switch line wrapping, like the -w option of 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)

           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 placeholder will use the "short" decoration format if
           --decorate was not already provided on the command line.

       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, line-feeds that immediately precede 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


COMMON DIFF OPTIONS
       -p, -u, --patch
           Generate patch (see section on generating patches).

       -U<n>, --unified=<n>
           Generate diffs with <n> lines of context instead of the usual three. Implies -p.

       --raw
           Generate the raw format.

       --patch-with-raw
           Synonym for -p --raw.

       --minimal
           Spend extra time to make sure the smallest possible diff is produced.

       --patience
           Generate a diff using the "patience diff" algorithm.

       --histogram
           Generate a diff using the "histogram diff" algorithm.

       --diff-algorithm={patience|minimal|histogram|myers}
           Choose a diff algorithm. The variants are as follows:

           default, myers
               The basic greedy diff algorithm. Currently, this is the default.

           minimal
               Spend extra time to make sure the smallest possible diff is produced.

           patience
               Use "patience diff" algorithm when generating patches.

           histogram
               This algorithm extends the patience algorithm to "support low-occurrence common elements".

           For instance, if you configured diff.algorithm variable to a non-default value and want to use
           the default one, then you have to use --diff-algorithm=default option.

       --stat[=<width>[,<name-width>[,<count>]]]
           Generate a diffstat. By default, as much space as necessary will be used for the filename part,
           and the rest for the graph part. Maximum width defaults to terminal width, or 80 columns if not
           connected to a terminal, and can be overridden by <width>. The width of the filename part can be
           limited by giving another width <name-width> after a comma. The width of the graph part can be
           limited by using --stat-graph-width=<width> (affects all commands generating a stat graph) or by
           setting diff.statGraphWidth=<width> (does not affect git format-patch). By giving a third
           parameter <count>, you can limit the output to the first <count> lines, followed by ...  if there
           are more.

           These parameters can also be set individually with --stat-width=<width>,
           --stat-name-width=<name-width> and --stat-count=<count>.

       --numstat
           Similar to --stat, but shows number of added and deleted lines in decimal notation and pathname
           without abbreviation, to make it more machine friendly. For binary files, outputs two - instead
           of saying 0 0.

       --shortstat
           Output only the last line of the --stat format containing total number of modified files, as well
           as number of added and deleted lines.

       --dirstat[=<param1,param2,...>]
           Output the distribution of relative amount of changes for each sub-directory. The behavior of
           --dirstat can be customized by passing it a comma separated list of parameters. The defaults are
           controlled by the diff.dirstat configuration variable (see git-config(1)). The following
           parameters are available:

           changes
               Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the lines that have been removed from the source, or
               added to the destination. This ignores the amount of pure code movements within a file. In
               other words, rearranging lines in a file is not counted as much as other changes. This is the
               default behavior when no parameter is given.

           lines
               Compute the dirstat numbers by doing the regular line-based diff analysis, and summing the
               removed/added line counts. (For binary files, count 64-byte chunks instead, since binary
               files have no natural concept of lines). This is a more expensive --dirstat behavior than the
               changes behavior, but it does count rearranged lines within a file as much as other changes.
               The resulting output is consistent with what you get from the other --*stat options.

           files
               Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the number of files changed. Each changed file counts
               equally in the dirstat analysis. This is the computationally cheapest --dirstat behavior,
               since it does not have to look at the file contents at all.

           cumulative
               Count changes in a child directory for the parent directory as well. Note that when using
               cumulative, the sum of the percentages reported may exceed 100%. The default (non-cumulative)
               behavior can be specified with the noncumulative parameter.

           <limit>
               An integer parameter specifies a cut-off percent (3% by default). Directories contributing
               less than this percentage of the changes are not shown in the output.

           Example: The following will count changed files, while ignoring directories with less than 10% of
           the total amount of changed files, and accumulating child directory counts in the parent
           directories: --dirstat=files,10,cumulative.

       --summary
           Output a condensed summary of extended header information such as creations, renames and mode
           changes.

       --patch-with-stat
           Synonym for -p --stat.

       -z
           Separate the commits with NULs instead of with new newlines.

           Also, when --raw or --numstat has been given, do not munge pathnames and use NULs as output field
           terminators.

           Without this option, each pathname output will have TAB, LF, double quotes, and backslash
           characters replaced with \t, \n, \", and \\, respectively, and the pathname will be enclosed in
           double quotes if any of those replacements occurred.

       --name-only
           Show only names of changed files.

       --name-status
           Show only names and status of changed files. See the description of the --diff-filter option on
           what the status letters mean.

       --submodule[=<format>]
           Specify how differences in submodules are shown. When --submodule or --submodule=log is given,
           the log format is used. This format lists the commits in the range like git-submodule(1) summary
           does. Omitting the --submodule option or specifying --submodule=short, uses the short format.
           This format just shows the names of the commits at the beginning and end of the range. Can be
           tweaked via the diff.submodule configuration variable.

       --color[=<when>]
           Show colored diff.  --color (i.e. without =<when>) is the same as --color=always.  <when> can be
           one of always, never, or auto.

       --no-color
           Turn off colored diff. It is the same as --color=never.

       --word-diff[=<mode>]
           Show a word diff, using the <mode> to delimit changed words. By default, words are delimited by
           whitespace; see --word-diff-regex below. The <mode> defaults to plain, and must be one of:

           color
               Highlight changed words using only colors. Implies --color.

           plain
               Show words as [-removed-] and {+added+}. Makes no attempts to escape the delimiters if they
               appear in the input, so the output may be ambiguous.

           porcelain
               Use a special line-based format intended for script consumption. Added/removed/unchanged runs
               are printed in the usual unified diff format, starting with a +/-/` ` character at the
               beginning of the line and extending to the end of the line. Newlines in the input are
               represented by a tilde ~ on a line of its own.

           none
               Disable word diff again.

           Note that despite the name of the first mode, color is used to highlight the changed parts in all
           modes if enabled.

       --word-diff-regex=<regex>
           Use <regex> to decide what a word is, instead of considering runs of non-whitespace to be a word.
           Also implies --word-diff unless it was already enabled.

           Every non-overlapping match of the <regex> is considered a word. Anything between these matches
           is considered whitespace and ignored(!) for the purposes of finding differences. You may want to
           append |[^[:space:]] to your regular expression to make sure that it matches all non-whitespace
           characters. A match that contains a newline is silently truncated(!) at the newline.

           The regex can also be set via a diff driver or configuration option, see gitattributes(1) or git-config(1). gitconfig(1).
           config(1). Giving it explicitly overrides any diff driver or configuration setting. Diff drivers
           override configuration settings.

       --color-words[=<regex>]
           Equivalent to --word-diff=color plus (if a regex was specified) --word-diff-regex=<regex>.

       --no-renames
           Turn off rename detection, even when the configuration file gives the default to do so.

       --check
           Warn if changes introduce whitespace errors. What are considered whitespace errors is controlled
           by core.whitespace configuration. By default, trailing whitespaces (including lines that solely
           consist of whitespaces) and a space character that is immediately followed by a tab character
           inside the initial indent of the line are considered whitespace errors. Exits with non-zero
           status if problems are found. Not compatible with --exit-code.

       --full-index
           Instead of the first handful of characters, show the full pre- and post-image blob object names
           on the "index" line when generating patch format output.

       --binary
           In addition to --full-index, output a binary diff that can be applied with git-apply.

       --abbrev[=<n>]
           Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object name in diff-raw format output and
           diff-tree header lines, show only a partial prefix. This is independent of the --full-index
           option above, which controls the diff-patch output format. Non default number of digits can be
           specified with --abbrev=<n>.

       -B[<n>][/<m>], --break-rewrites[=[<n>][/<m>]]
           Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create. This serves two purposes:

           It affects the way a change that amounts to a total rewrite of a file not as a series of deletion
           and insertion mixed together with a very few lines that happen to match textually as the context,
           but as a single deletion of everything old followed by a single insertion of everything new, and
           the number m controls this aspect of the -B option (defaults to 60%).  -B/70% specifies that less
           than 30% of the original should remain in the result for Git to consider it a total rewrite (i.e.
           otherwise the resulting patch will be a series of deletion and insertion mixed together with
           context lines).

           When used with -M, a totally-rewritten file is also considered as the source of a rename (usually
           -M only considers a file that disappeared as the source of a rename), and the number n controls
           this aspect of the -B option (defaults to 50%).  -B20% specifies that a change with addition and
           deletion compared to 20% or more of the file's size are eligible for being picked up as a
           possible source of a rename to another file.

       -M[<n>], --find-renames[=<n>]
           If generating diffs, detect and report renames for each commit. For following files across
           renames while traversing history, see --follow. If n is specified, it is a threshold on the
           similarity index (i.e. amount of addition/deletions compared to the file's size). For example,
           -M90% means Git should consider a delete/add pair to be a rename if more than 90% of the file
           hasn't changed. Without a % sign, the number is to be read as a fraction, with a decimal point
           before it. I.e., -M5 becomes 0.5, and is thus the same as -M50%. Similarly, -M05 is the same as
           -M5%. To limit detection to exact renames, use -M100%.

       -C[<n>], --find-copies[=<n>]
           Detect copies as well as renames. See also --find-copies-harder. If n is specified, it has the
           same meaning as for -M<n>.

       --find-copies-harder
           For performance reasons, by default, -C option finds copies only if the original file of the copy
           was modified in the same changeset. This flag makes the command inspect unmodified files as
           candidates for the source of copy. This is a very expensive operation for large projects, so use
           it with caution. Giving more than one -C option has the same effect.

       -D, --irreversible-delete
           Omit the preimage for deletes, i.e. print only the header but not the diff between the preimage
           and /dev/null. The resulting patch is not meant to be applied with patch nor git apply; this is
           solely for people who want to just concentrate on reviewing the text after the change. In
           addition, the output obviously lack enough information to apply such a patch in reverse, even
           manually, hence the name of the option.

           When used together with -B, omit also the preimage in the deletion part of a delete/create pair.

       -l<num>
           The -M and -C options require O(n^2) processing time where n is the number of potential
           rename/copy targets. This option prevents rename/copy detection from running if the number of
           rename/copy targets exceeds the specified number.

       --diff-filter=[(A|C|D|M|R|T|U|X|B)...[*]]
           Select only files that are Added (A), Copied (C), Deleted (D), Modified (M), Renamed (R), have
           their type (i.e. regular file, symlink, submodule, ...) changed (T), are Unmerged (U), are
           Unknown (X), or have had their pairing Broken (B). Any combination of the filter characters
           (including none) can be used. When * (All-or-none) is added to the combination, all paths are
           selected if there is any file that matches other criteria in the comparison; if there is no file
           that matches other criteria, nothing is selected.

       -S<string>
           Look for differences that introduce or remove an instance of <string>. Note that this is
           different than the string simply appearing in diff output; see the pickaxe entry in
           gitdiffcore(7) for more details.

       -G<regex>
           Look for differences whose added or removed line matches the given <regex>.

       --pickaxe-all
           When -S or -G finds a change, show all the changes in that changeset, not just the files that
           contain the change in <string>.

       --pickaxe-regex
           Make the <string> not a plain string but an extended POSIX regex to match.

       -O<orderfile>
           Output the patch in the order specified in the <orderfile>, which has one shell glob pattern per
           line.

       -R
           Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from index or on-disk file to tree contents.

       --relative[=<path>]
           When run from a subdirectory of the project, it can be told to exclude changes outside the
           directory and show pathnames relative to it with this option. When you are not in a subdirectory
           (e.g. in a bare repository), you can name which subdirectory to make the output relative to by
           giving a <path> as an argument.

       -a, --text
           Treat all files as text.

       --ignore-space-at-eol
           Ignore changes in whitespace at EOL.

       -b, --ignore-space-change
           Ignore changes in amount of whitespace. This ignores whitespace at line end, and considers all
           other sequences of one or more whitespace characters to be equivalent.

       -w, --ignore-all-space
           Ignore whitespace when comparing lines. This ignores differences even if one line has whitespace
           where the other line has none.

       --inter-hunk-context=<lines>
           Show the context between diff hunks, up to the specified number of lines, thereby fusing hunks
           that are close to each other.

       -W, --function-context
           Show whole surrounding functions of changes.

       --ext-diff
           Allow an external diff helper to be executed. If you set an external diff driver with
           gitattributes(5), you need to use this option with git-log(1) and friends.

       --no-ext-diff
           Disallow external diff drivers.

       --textconv, --no-textconv
           Allow (or disallow) external text conversion filters to be run when comparing binary files. See
           gitattributes(5) for details. Because textconv filters are typically a one-way conversion, the
           resulting diff is suitable for human consumption, but cannot be applied. For this reason,
           textconv filters are enabled by default only for git-diff(1) and git-log(1), but not for git-format-patch(1) gitformat-patch(1)
           format-patch(1) or diff plumbing commands.

       --ignore-submodules[=<when>]
           Ignore changes to submodules in the diff generation. <when> can be either "none", "untracked",
           "dirty" or "all", which is the default Using "none" will consider the submodule modified when it
           either contains untracked or modified files or its HEAD differs from the commit recorded in the
           superproject and can be used to override any settings of the ignore option in git-config(1) or
           gitmodules(5). When "untracked" is used submodules are not considered dirty when they only
           contain untracked content (but they are still scanned for modified content). Using "dirty"
           ignores all changes to the work tree of submodules, only changes to the commits stored in the
           superproject are shown (this was the behavior until 1.7.0). Using "all" hides all changes to
           submodules.

       --src-prefix=<prefix>
           Show the given source prefix instead of "a/".

       --dst-prefix=<prefix>
           Show the given destination prefix instead of "b/".

       --no-prefix
           Do not show any source or destination prefix.

       For more detailed explanation on these common options, see also gitdiffcore(7).

GENERATING PATCHES WITH -P
       When "git-diff-index", "git-diff-tree", or "git-diff-files" are run with a -p option, "git diff"
       without the --raw option, or "git log" with the "-p" option, they do not produce the output described
       above; instead they produce a patch file. You can customize the creation of such patches via the
       GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF and the GIT_DIFF_OPTS environment variables.

       What the -p option produces is slightly different from the traditional diff format:

        1. It is preceded with a "git diff" header that looks like this:

               diff --git a/file1 b/file2

           The a/ and b/ filenames are the same unless rename/copy is involved. Especially, even for a
           creation or a deletion, /dev/null is not used in place of the a/ or b/ filenames.

           When rename/copy is involved, file1 and file2 show the name of the source file of the rename/copy
           and the name of the file that rename/copy produces, respectively.

        2. It is followed by one or more extended header lines:

               old mode <mode>
               new mode <mode>
               deleted file mode <mode>
               new file mode <mode>
               copy from <path>
               copy to <path>
               rename from <path>
               rename to <path>
               similarity index <number>
               dissimilarity index <number>
               index <hash>..<hash> <mode>

           File modes are printed as 6-digit octal numbers including the file type and file permission bits.

           Path names in extended headers do not include the a/ and b/ prefixes.

           The similarity index is the percentage of unchanged lines, and the dissimilarity index is the
           percentage of changed lines. It is a rounded down integer, followed by a percent sign. The
           similarity index value of 100% is thus reserved for two equal files, while 100% dissimilarity
           means that no line from the old file made it into the new one.

           The index line includes the SHA-1 checksum before and after the change. The <mode> is included if
           the file mode does not change; otherwise, separate lines indicate the old and the new mode.

        3. TAB, LF, double quote and backslash characters in pathnames are represented as \t, \n, \" and \\,
           respectively. If there is need for such substitution then the whole pathname is put in double
           quotes.

        4. All the file1 files in the output refer to files before the commit, and all the file2 files refer
           to files after the commit. It is incorrect to apply each change to each file sequentially. For
           example, this patch will swap a and b:

               diff --git a/a b/b
               rename from a
               rename to b
               diff --git a/b b/a
               rename from b
               rename to a

COMBINED DIFF FORMAT
       Any diff-generating command can take the `-c` or --cc option to produce a combined diff when showing
       a merge. This is the default format when showing merges with git-diff(1) or git-show(1). Note also
       that you can give the `-m' option to any of these commands to force generation of diffs with
       individual parents of a merge.

       A combined diff format looks like this:

           diff --combined describe.c
           index fabadb8,cc95eb0..4866510
           --- a/describe.c
           +++ b/describe.c
           @@@ -98,20 -98,12 +98,20 @@@
                   return (a_date > b_date) ? -1 : (a_date == b_date) ? 0 : 1;
             }

        1. It is preceded with a "git diff" header, that looks like this (when -c option is used):

               diff --combined file

           or like this (when --cc option is used):

               diff --cc file

        2. It is followed by one or more extended header lines (this example shows a merge with two
           parents):

               index <hash>,<hash>..<hash>
               mode <mode>,<mode>..<mode>
               new file mode <mode>
               deleted file mode <mode>,<mode>

           The mode <mode>,<mode>..<mode> line appears only if at least one of the <mode> is different from
           the rest. Extended headers with information about detected contents movement (renames and copying
           detection) are designed to work with diff of two <tree-ish> and are not used by combined diff
           format.

        3. It is followed by two-line from-file/to-file header

               --- a/file
               +++ b/file

           Similar to two-line header for traditional unified diff format, /dev/null is used to signal
           created or deleted files.

        4. Chunk header format is modified to prevent people from accidentally feeding it to patch -p1.
           Combined diff format was created for review of merge commit changes, and was not meant for apply.
           The change is similar to the change in the extended index header:

               @@@ <from-file-range> <from-file-range> <to-file-range> @@@

           There are (number of parents + 1) @ characters in the chunk header for combined diff format.

       Unlike the traditional unified diff format, which shows two files A and B with a single column that
       has - (minus -- appears in A but removed in B), + (plus -- missing in A but added to B), or " "
       (space -- unchanged) prefix, this format compares two or more files file1, file2,... with one file X,
       and shows how X differs from each of fileN. One column for each of fileN is prepended to the output
       line to note how X's line is different from it.

       A - character in the column N means that the line appears in fileN but it does not appear in the
       result. A + character in the column N means that the line appears in the result, and fileN does not
       have that line (in other words, the line was added, from the point of view of that parent).

       In the above example output, the function signature was changed from both files (hence two - removals
       from both file1 and file2, plus ++ to mean one line that was added does not appear in either file1
       nor file2). Also eight other lines are the same from file1 but do not appear in file2 (hence prefixed
       with +).

       When shown by git diff-tree -c, it compares the parents of a merge commit with the merge result (i.e.
       file1..fileN are the parents). When shown by git diff-files -c, it compares the two unresolved merge
       parents with the working tree file (i.e. file1 is stage 2 aka "our version", file2 is stage 3 aka
       "their version").

EXAMPLES
       git log --no-merges
           Show the whole commit history, but skip any merges

       git log v2.6.12.. include/scsi drivers/scsi
           Show all commits since version v2.6.12 that changed any file in the include/scsi or drivers/scsi
           subdirectories

       git log --since="2 weeks ago" -- gitk
           Show the changes during the last two weeks to the file gitk. The "--" is necessary to avoid
           confusion with the branch named gitk

       git log --name-status release..test
           Show the commits that are in the "test" branch but not yet in the "release" branch, along with
           the list of paths each commit modifies.

       git log --follow builtin-rev-list.c
           Shows the commits that changed builtin-rev-list.c, including those commits that occurred before
           the file was given its present name.

       git log --branches --not --remotes=origin
           Shows all commits that are in any of local branches but not in any of remote-tracking branches
           for origin (what you have that origin doesn't).

       git log master --not --remotes=*/master
           Shows all commits that are in local master but not in any remote repository master branches.

       git log -p -m --first-parent
           Shows the history including change diffs, but only from the "main branch" perspective, skipping
           commits that come from merged branches, and showing full diffs of changes introduced by the
           merges. This makes sense only when following a strict policy of merging all topic branches when
           staying on a single integration branch.

       git log -3
           Limits the number of commits to show to 3.

DISCUSSION
       At the core level, Git is character encoding agnostic.

          The pathnames recorded in the index and in the tree objects are treated as uninterpreted
           sequences of non-NUL bytes. What readdir(2) returns are what are recorded and compared with the
           data Git keeps track of, which in turn are expected to be what lstat(2) and creat(2) accepts.
           There is no such thing as pathname encoding translation.

          The contents of the blob objects are uninterpreted sequences of bytes. There is no encoding
           translation at the core level.

          The commit log messages are uninterpreted sequences of non-NUL bytes.

       Although we encourage that the commit log messages are encoded in UTF-8, both the core and Git
       Porcelain are designed not to force UTF-8 on projects. If all participants of a particular project
       find it more convenient to use legacy encodings, Git does not forbid it. However, there are a few
       things to keep in mind.

        1.  git commit and git commit-tree issues a warning if the commit log message given to it does not
           look like a valid UTF-8 string, unless you explicitly say your project uses a legacy encoding.
           The way to say this is to have i18n.commitencoding in .git/config file, like this:

               [i18n]
                       commitencoding = ISO-8859-1

           Commit objects created with the above setting record the value of i18n.commitencoding in its
           encoding header. This is to help other people who look at them later. Lack of this header implies
           that the commit log message is encoded in UTF-8.

        2.  git log, git show, git blame and friends look at the encoding header of a commit object, and try
           to re-code the log message into UTF-8 unless otherwise specified. You can specify the desired
           output encoding with i18n.logoutputencoding in .git/config file, like this:

               [i18n]
                       logoutputencoding = ISO-8859-1

           If you do not have this configuration variable, the value of i18n.commitencoding is used instead.

       Note that we deliberately chose not to re-code the commit log message when a commit is made to force
       UTF-8 at the commit object level, because re-coding to UTF-8 is not necessarily a reversible
       operation.

CONFIGURATION
       See git-config(1) for core variables and git-diff(1) for settings related to diff generation.

       format.pretty
           Default for the --format option. (See "PRETTY FORMATS" above.) Defaults to "medium".

       i18n.logOutputEncoding
           Encoding to use when displaying logs. (See "Discussion", above.) Defaults to the value of
           i18n.commitEncoding if set, UTF-8 otherwise.

       log.date
           Default format for human-readable dates. (Compare the --date option.) Defaults to "default",
           which means to write dates like Sat May 8 19:35:34 2010 -0500.

       log.showroot
           If false, git log and related commands will not treat the initial commit as a big creation event.
           Any root commits in git log -p output would be shown without a diff attached. The default is
           true.

       mailmap.*
           See git-shortlog(1).

       notes.displayRef
           Which refs, in addition to the default set by core.notesRef or GIT_NOTES_REF, to read notes from
           when showing commit messages with the log family of commands. See git-notes(1).

           May be an unabbreviated ref name or a glob and may be specified multiple times. A warning will be
           issued for refs that do not exist, but a glob that does not match any refs is silently ignored.

           This setting can be disabled by the --no-notes option, overridden by the GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF
           environment variable, and overridden by the --notes=<ref> option.
