Nit: convert to what?  Perhaps a 's/$/ to parse-options/' would
improve the shortlog/oneline output.

But that would be hidden by getting pushed far to the right.

I am wondering if we can do something clever with the <area>: prefix.
For a series like this one, the shortlog output may be better off if
a short token that clearly identifies the topic is used there, e.g.

    diff-parseopt: convert --patch-with-raw
    diff-parseopt: convert --numstat and --shortstat
    ...

or even

    diff-parseopt: --patch-with-raw

perhaps.
