Thanks, that makes it much more clear to me at least what you were asking in the original. Not that my opinion necessarily matters, but what I was trying to express elsewhere in the thread was a preference for: output is blank, and tie it to "-b" (mostly because I do not see any way in which the author name sans commit is at all useful). I _would_ consider changing the default to "-b", but that is really a separate topic from this (and quite possibly falls under the "if I were designing from scratch today, but I am not..." category of changes). -Peff -- 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
