[PATCH] add pretty format configuration to git log/show/whatchanged

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



 * New configuration variable "format.pretty" can be used
    in git log/show/whatchanged.

the "format.pretty" configuration's design background is that I often use
"--pretty=fuller" on my command line, and different "--pretty=format:..."
 on my different local repos, I hope there is a configuration to store this
to git-config, and I think many people also need this to avoid specifying
"--pretty=..." every time.

with applying the patch, code in `git log/show/whatchanged` executed in
the following order:
1. call to gitconfig will set static fmt_pretty according to user's git-config:
   if the user never config "format.pretty", fmt_pretty doesn't need to be
   initialized;
2. rev->commit_format set to CMIT_FMT_DEFAULT in init_revisions;
3. set rev->commit_format according to fmt_pretty if the user has configured
   "format.pretty" in git-config, else default to CMIT_FMT_DEFAULT;
4. setup_revisions will accept "--pretty=" from the command line;

so the pretty format's setting precedence will be:
1. the command line "--pretty=";
2. "format.pretty" from the git-config;
3. default CMIT_FMT_DEFAULT;

here documentation of `git config/log/show/whatchanged` also updated.

to Johannes: rev->commit_format default to CMIT_FMT_DEFAULT instead of fmt_pretty
could avoid an extra call to get_commit_format.
