We already do conditional partial inclusion of that file, so reusing that
mechanism would be the cleanest.

I've looked at the generated files before and after this patch and the
differences looked reasonable.

Documentation: git-log cannot use rev-list specific options

The log family and git-rev-list share the same set of options that come
from revision walking machinery, but they both have options unique to
them.  Notably, --header, --timestamp, --stdin and --quiet apply only to
rev-list.  Exclude them from the git-log documentation.
