And if you want to be _really_ fancy, you can even make it a git alias. Just add somethign like this to your ~/.gitconfig file: [alias] mylog=!GIT_PAGER='git --no-pager shortlog' git log --pretty='format:commit %H%nAuthor: %an <%ae>%n%n %s (%h)%n' which is the _real_ git-mans way to do it. It does the "shortlog" output by using "git shortlog" as a pager, but then to avoid recursion, we have to turn off paging of shortlog output itself. Heh. And the reason to do that is that the arguments always go to the end, so since we want to give the args to "git log", we can't put the pipe at the end. I will have to go wash up after writing the above.
