I do not use the prefetch stuff, but unfortunately the person who
was most familiar with "maintenance" are no longer active on this
list, so let me take a crack.
I think your complaint is that "--all" really means "all", not just
"heads" and "tags" but also includes "prefetch", while the prefetch
hierarchy is not included in the "--decorate" sources.
What does
$ git log --oneline --branches --tags --decorate --graph
show, and is it closer to what you expected (note: this is not a
direct suggestion of a workaround---trying to gauge what the
direction is to move forward)?
Thanks.
Indeed, I missed the --branches (and --remotes) options; they do a
better job in my case.
Maybe --all have a "legacy behaviour" so it's on me to move to new and
better options.
Thanks.
