Yes, it's in the wiki and in my .gitconfig:

        whatis = "!sh -c 'git show -s --pretty=\"format:%h (%s, %ai\"
\"$@\" | sed -e \"s/ [012][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]
[-+][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]$/)\\n/\"' -"

Is there a reason not to simply use:

  whatis = "show -s --pretty='format:%h (%s, %ad)' --date=short"

these days?

P.S. Actually, I use --no-pager in my version, so I use 'tformat' to
explicitly end it with a newline, which is nicer for actually showing
the output on the terminal.

Er, actually, I see yours adds the newline explicitly in the sed
invocation, so it would definitely be 'tformat' to match what yours
does.
