Cute idea. :) What about objects with multiple decoration? How about producing a comma-separated list like git-log does? How about making %d imply --decorate? You could load the decorations lazily when it's first encountered. > Maybe %d should expand to " (<name decoration>)" instead of "<name > decoration>"? foobar2000 (http://foobar2000.org/) has a kind of music tagging language, and one of its features might be interesting for us here: you can group a placeholder and other stuff inside brackets. The construct resolves to an empty string if the placeholder is NULL, i.e. in your example "[ (%d)]" would resolve to either " (the decoration)" or "", depending on the object having a decoration or not. (It might be a better fit for --pretty=format: to use %[ and %].) By the way, your patch reminds me that I wanted to add a placeholder for git-describe's output. I doubt I'll find time for that in the near future, though..
