I think this is behaving as designed. git log is a porcelain command, which means it's designed for the user to use, but is not intended for scripting. The documentation for `log.showSignature` says this: If true, makes git-log(1), git-show(1), and git-whatchanged(1) assume --show-signature. As long as the output is what you would have gotten if you manually added --show-signature, the result is correct. However, if you want to script things, you can use git rev-list, which is a plumbing command that's specifically designed to allow scripting. It works very similarly to git log, but doesn't have configuration options that change its behaviour, so it doesn't suffer from this problem. For example, on one of my branches, I get this: $ git rev-list -n 1 --oneline HEAD 404bf1f83a credential: add an argument to keep state Note that the implicit HEAD of git log doesn't work with git rev-list, so you need to specify HEAD explicitly. -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
