As you had --decorate and a lot of %C(cruft), I was assuming that you do want to see all the bells and whistles when I suggested to omit --branches and --remotes. If you do not want --decorate, I think you can omit that from the command line without changing what the output means. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
