This certainly makes it more visible which one is left and which one is right: < commit <205ffa9... | Author: Gustaf Hendeby <hendeby@xxxxxxxxxx> | | Make git add -n and git -u -n output consistent | < commit <38ed1d8... | Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> | | "git-add -n -u" should not add but just report ... than * commit <205ffa9... | Author: Gustaf Hendeby <hendeby@xxxxxxxxxx> | | Make git add -n and git -u -n output consistent | * commit <38ed1d8... | Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> | | "git-add -n -u" should not add but just report | ... But is it just me who now finds the original marker redundant and ugly? IOW, I wonder if it is better to show this: < commit 205ffa9... | Author: Gustaf Hendeby <hendeby@xxxxxxxxxx> | | Make git add -n and git -u -n output consistent | < commit 38ed1d8... | Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> | | "git-add -n -u" should not add but just report ... This is with --pretty=short, --pretty=oneline makes the issue even more obvious.
