Sort of. More like a missing feature.

When I use something like:
git log --pretty=format:'%H %s' --decorate
I do not get the decoration.
While 
git log --pretty=oneline --decorate
does decorate.

The problem is where the decoration would go. I think it makes sense not
to show the decoration automatically in that case, since its placement
depends on the user formatting.

The right solution would be a '%d' placeholder to include the
decoration. Patch series to follow:

  [1/2] decorate: allow const objects to be decorated
  [2/2] allow '%d' pretty format specifier to show decoration
