Re: Cleaning up log messages

Hi,

How do you do it with git log? --pretty overrides the default of medium

    Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,

email, raw and format:<string>. When omitted, the format defaults to
medium.

You get it _almost_ with

$ f='commit %H%nAuthor: %aN <%ae>%nDate:    %ad%n%n%s%n%n%b'
$ git log --pretty="format:$f"

The only difference being that the commit message is not indented.  If you 
really need that, it is easy to add.

But I rather doubt that you need it, as you want to make statistics, and 
therefore need to pipe the output into a script anyway.
