Hello,

Git can pretty-print a commit graph with git log --graph and a custom --pretty
format. I alias some uses of git log --graph --pretty, to which I then want to
manually add "-p" upon invocation.

Yep. I think this is because format:%h doesn't add a newline by
default. With tformat:%h or format:%h%n, the issue goes away. (See
"git help log" under "tformat:"—this is probably what you want in
order to get "oneline"-style format.)

FWIW, "git log --pretty=tformat:<whatever>" has a handy short-hand
that is "git log --format=<whatever>" ;-)
