Shortlog can work as a filter to "git log", but if you give revs to work on, e.g. "git shortlog -s -n v1.5.6.5.." or "git shortlog HEAD", it can generate the log and feed to itself. Somehow it (perhaps incorrectly, I did not look at the command line input) judging that your command line is telling it not to do the log generation itself but instead you will feed the log from its standard input, which happens to be your terminal. So another workaround would be to type the series of log messages ;-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
