This seems fairly arbitrary, doesn't it?  My own working theory is
that Nanako put it in because the git-log|sed construct inherently
bars any way to a pager, so it needs to be cut short.

So suppose we could somehow get rid of the |sed... like if we had
--pretty specifiers for the reflog information.

Sadly

  git log -g --format="%h %g: %G"

still fails to exactly replicate the reflog format: if the reflog was
cut off during garbage collection, the last entry refers to a no
longer existing commit causing a stray ':' on that line.  Oh, well.

It's also still RFC because:

* I don't like the massive code churn in 2/5, maybe someone sees a
  better option.

* 5/5 has a pretty lame excuse.  I could also just change it in 'git
  stash list' to limit the backwards-incompatibility damage, but
  that's also a maintenance headache.


Thomas Rast (5):
  reflog-walk: refactor the branch@{num} formatting
  Introduce new pretty formats %g and %G for reflog information
  stash: Use new %g/%G formats instead of sed
  stash list: drop the default limit of 10 stashes
  stash: change built-in ref to 'stash' instead of 'refs/stash'
