Heh. You should cc git or Junio if so.

The way shortlog is done (very different from regular logs, due to the 
whole organize-by-name etc thing) that is sadly pretty ugly to do: we 
don't support the pretty-formats etc. And the way things are done, adding 
support for the generic "--pretty=xyz" (including custom formats) would be 
pretty painful.

So it would have to be a total special-case.

Junio, git people - what Andrew is asking for is for git shortlog to show 
the commit ID (in shortened form) at the end:

and I do think it would be nice. I've had some other things I would find 
shortlog format additions useful for (size of patch etc), so if it could 
be somehow generalized that would be wonderful.

As it is, that is one ugly function that only takes the one-liner thing - 
at least partly because of how it traditionally worked (as a a filter over 
the log messages, rather than as a "git shortlog xyz..abc" kind of 
stand-alone thing).
