Signed-off-by: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi Junio, While reading an email from Linus earlier (RFC: dynamic "auto" date formats), I noticed that log.decorate was being set to 'auto'. Since I didn't recall that setting (even if it's easy to guess), I went looking for the documentation ... This should probably be marked RFC, since I haven't checked that the formatting is OK (I don't have the documentation toolchain installed these days).
