If the pager can recognize the end of each commit, more confortable viewing of
git-log's output will be possible.

I think people just use "/^commit .*<RET>" once and then nagivate with "n"
(and to change direction, "?<RET>") for this.

Or capital N.

It's mostly useful when one wants to view the patch as well as the message,
so an alias like

   logp = !PAGER='less -p ^commit' git log -p

Yes, moving is not so large problem. But less cannot search regex with
specified limit. Sometime I want to search string e.g. "something" only in
the commit I'm focusing on.

should work well, and also make LISP nerds giggle.

p? :)

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
