<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1"><object>…​</dt>
<dd>
<p>The names of objects to show (defaults to <em>HEAD</em>).
For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see
"SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in <a href="gitrevisions.html">gitrevisions(7)</a>.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--pretty[=<format>]</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--format=<format></dt>
<dd>
<p>Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
where <em><format></em> can be one of <em>oneline</em>, <em>short</em>, <em>medium</em>,
<em>full</em>, <em>fuller</em>, <em>reference</em>, <em>email</em>, <em>raw</em>, <em>format:<string></em>
and <em>tformat:<string></em>. When <em><format></em> is none of the above,
and has <em>%placeholder</em> in it, it acts as if
<em>--pretty=tformat:<format></em> were given.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each
format. When <em>=<format></em> part is omitted, it defaults to <em>medium</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository
configuration (see <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>).</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--abbrev-commit</dt>
<dd>
<p>Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
name, show a prefix that names the object uniquely.
"--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies diff output, if it is displayed)
option can be used to specify the minimum length of the prefix.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
people using 80-column terminals.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-abbrev-commit</dt>
<dd>
<p>Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates
<code>--abbrev-commit</code>, either explicit or implied by other options such
as "--oneline". It also overrides the <code>log.abbrevCommit</code> variable.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--oneline</dt>
<dd>
<p>This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit"
used together.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--encoding=<encoding></dt>
<dd>
<p>Commit objects record the character encoding used for the log message
in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
defaults to UTF-8. Note that if an object claims to be encoded
in <code>X</code> and we are outputting in <code>X</code>, we will output the object
verbatim; this means that invalid sequences in the original
commit may be copied to the output. Likewise, if iconv(3) fails
to convert the commit, we will quietly output the original
object verbatim.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--expand-tabs=<n></dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--expand-tabs</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-expand-tabs</dt>
<dd>
<p>Perform a tab expansion (replace each tab with enough spaces
to fill to the next display column that is a multiple of <em><n></em>)
in the log message before showing it in the output.
<code>--expand-tabs</code> is a short-hand for <code>--expand-tabs=8</code>, and
<code>--no-expand-tabs</code> is a short-hand for <code>--expand-tabs=0</code>,
which disables tab expansion.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>By default, tabs are expanded in pretty formats that indent the log
message by 4 spaces (i.e. <em>medium</em>, which is the default, <em>full</em>,
and <em>fuller</em>).</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--notes[=<ref>]</dt>
<dd>
<p>Show the notes (see <a href="git-notes.html">git-notes(1)</a>) that annotate the
commit, when showing the commit log message. This is the default
for <code>git log</code>, <code>git show</code> and <code>git whatchanged</code> commands when
there is no <code>--pretty</code>, <code>--format</code>, or <code>--oneline</code> option given
on the command line.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the
<code>core.notesRef</code> and <code>notes.displayRef</code> variables (or corresponding
environment overrides). See <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a> for more details.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With an optional <em><ref></em> argument, use the ref to find the notes
to display. The ref can specify the full refname when it begins
with <code>refs/notes/</code>; when it begins with <code>notes/</code>, <code>refs/</code> and otherwise
<code>refs/notes/</code> is prefixed to form the full name of the ref.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are
being displayed. Examples: "--notes=foo" will show only notes from
"refs/notes/foo"; "--notes=foo --notes" will show both notes from
"refs/notes/foo" and from the default notes ref(s).</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-notes</dt>
<dd>
<p>Do not show notes. This negates the above <code>--notes</code> option, by
resetting the list of notes refs from which notes are shown.
Options are parsed in the order given on the command line, so e.g.
"--notes --notes=foo --no-notes --notes=bar" will only show notes
from "refs/notes/bar".</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--show-notes-by-default</dt>
<dd>
<p>Show the default notes unless options for displaying specific
notes are given.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--show-notes[=<ref>]</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--[no-]standard-notes</dt>
<dd>
<p>These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes
options instead.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--show-signature</dt>
<dd>
<p>Check the validity of a signed commit object by passing the signature
to <code>gpg --verify</code> and show the output.</p>
</dd>
</dl>

<h2 id="_pretty_formats">PRETTY FORMATS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If the commit is a merge, and if the pretty-format
is not <em>oneline</em>, <em>email</em> or <em>raw</em>, an additional line is
inserted before the <em>Author:</em> line. This line begins with
"Merge: " and the hashes of ancestral commits are printed,
separated by spaces. Note that the listed commits may not
necessarily be the list of the <strong>direct</strong> parent commits if you
have limited your view of history: for example, if you are
only interested in changes related to a certain directory or
file.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There are several built-in formats, and you can define
additional formats by setting a pretty.<name>
config option to either another format name, or a

<p>The <em>raw</em> format shows the entire commit exactly as
stored in the commit object. Notably, the hashes are
displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or
--no-abbrev are used, and <em>parents</em> information show the
true parent commits, without taking grafts or history
simplification into account. Note that this format affects the way
commits are displayed, but not the way the diff is shown e.g. with
<code>git log --raw</code>. To get full object names in a raw diff format,
use <code>--no-abbrev</code>.</p>

<p>The <em>format:<format-string></em> format allows you to specify which information
you want to show. It works a little bit like printf format,
with the notable exception that you get a newline with <em>%n</em>
instead of <em>\n</em>.</p>

default, colors are shown only when enabled for log output
(by <code>color.diff</code>, <code>color.ui</code>, or <code>--color</code>, and respecting
the <code>auto</code> settings of the former if we are going to a
terminal). <code>%C(auto,...)</code> is accepted as a historical
synonym for the default (e.g., <code>%C(auto,red)</code>). Specifying
<code>%C(always,...)</code> will show the colors even when color is
not otherwise enabled (though consider just using
<code>--color=always</code> to enable color for the whole output,
including this format and anything else git might color).

<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <em>tformat:</em> format works exactly like <em>format:</em>, except that it
provides "terminator" semantics instead of "separator" semantics. In
other words, each commit has the message terminator character (usually a
newline) appended, rather than a separator placed between entries.
This means that the final entry of a single-line format will be properly
terminated with a new line, just as the "oneline" format does.
For example:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git log -2 --pretty=format:%h 4da45bef \
| perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'

$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef \
| perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'
4da45be
7134973</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In addition, any unrecognized string that has a <code>%</code> in it is interpreted
as if it has <code>tformat:</code> in front of it. For example, these two are
equivalent:</p>

<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef

passing it a comma separated list of parameters.
The defaults are controlled by the <code>diff.dirstat</code> configuration

The following parameters are available:</p>
<div class="openblock">
<div class="content">
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1"><code>changes</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the lines that have been
removed from the source, or added to the destination. This ignores
the amount of pure code movements within a file. In other words,
rearranging lines in a file is not counted as much as other changes.
This is the default behavior when no parameter is given.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><code>lines</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Compute the dirstat numbers by doing the regular line-based diff
analysis, and summing the removed/added line counts. (For binary
files, count 64-byte chunks instead, since binary files have no
natural concept of lines). This is a more expensive <code>--dirstat</code>
behavior than the <code>changes</code> behavior, but it does count rearranged
lines within a file as much as other changes. The resulting output
is consistent with what you get from the other <code>--*stat</code> options.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><code>files</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the number of files changed.
Each changed file counts equally in the dirstat analysis. This is
the computationally cheapest <code>--dirstat</code> behavior, since it does
not have to look at the file contents at all.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><code>cumulative</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Count changes in a child directory for the parent directory as well.
Note that when using <code>cumulative</code>, the sum of the percentages
reported may exceed 100%. The default (non-cumulative) behavior can
be specified with the <code>noncumulative</code> parameter.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><limit></dt>

<dt class="hdlist1">--submodule[=<format>]</dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify how differences in submodules are shown. When specifying
<code>--submodule=short</code> the <em>short</em> format is used. This format just
shows the names of the commits at the beginning and end of the range.
When <code>--submodule</code> or <code>--submodule=log</code> is specified, the <em>log</em>

<p>Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and

<div class="paragraph">
<p>It affects the way a change that amounts to a total rewrite of a file
not as a series of deletion and insertion mixed together with a very
few lines that happen to match textually as the context, but as a
single deletion of everything old followed by a single insertion of
everything new, and the number <code>m</code> controls this aspect of the -B
option (defaults to 60%). <code>-B/70%</code> specifies that less than 30% of the
original should remain in the result for Git to consider it a total
rewrite (i.e. otherwise the resulting patch will be a series of
deletion and insertion mixed together with context lines).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When used with -M, a totally-rewritten file is also considered as the
source of a rename (usually -M only considers a file that disappeared
as the source of a rename), and the number <code>n</code> controls this aspect of
the -B option (defaults to 50%). <code>-B20%</code> specifies that a change with
addition and deletion compared to 20% or more of the file’s size are

<p>If generating diffs, detect and report renames for each commit.
For following files across renames while traversing history, see
<code>--follow</code>.
If <code>n</code> is specified, it is a threshold on the similarity
index (i.e. amount of addition/deletions compared to the
file’s size). For example, <code>-M90%</code> means Git should consider a
delete/add pair to be a rename if more than 90% of the file
hasn’t changed. Without a <code>%</code> sign, the number is to be read as
a fraction, with a decimal point before it. I.e., <code>-M5</code> becomes
0.5, and is thus the same as <code>-M50%</code>. Similarly, <code>-M05</code> is
the same as <code>-M5%</code>. To limit detection to exact renames, use

repositories created on such systems will not work properly on
UTF-8-based systems (e.g. Linux, Mac, Windows) and vice versa.

extended ASCII encodings are also supported. This includes
ISO-8859-x, CP125x and many others, but <em>not</em> UTF-16/32,
EBCDIC and CJK multi-byte encodings (GBK, Shift-JIS, Big5,
EUC-x, CP9xx etc.).</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>Although we encourage that the commit log messages are encoded
in UTF-8, both the core and Git Porcelain are designed not to
force UTF-8 on projects. If all participants of a particular
project find it more convenient to use legacy encodings, Git
does not forbid it. However, there are a few things to keep in
mind.</p>

<li>
<p><em>git commit</em> and <em>git commit-tree</em> issue
a warning if the commit log message given to it does not look
like a valid UTF-8 string, unless you explicitly say your
project uses a legacy encoding. The way to say this is to
have <code>i18n.commitEncoding</code> in <code>.git/config</code> file, like this:</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>[i18n]
commitEncoding = ISO-8859-1</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Commit objects created with the above setting record the value
of <code>i18n.commitEncoding</code> in their <code>encoding</code> header. This is to
help other people who look at them later. Lack of this header
implies that the commit log message is encoded in UTF-8.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p><em>git log</em>, <em>git show</em>, <em>git blame</em> and friends look at the
<code>encoding</code> header of a commit object, and try to re-code the
log message into UTF-8 unless otherwise specified. You can
specify the desired output encoding with
<code>i18n.logOutputEncoding</code> in <code>.git/config</code> file, like this:</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>[i18n]
logOutputEncoding = ISO-8859-1</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If you do not have this configuration variable, the value of
<code>i18n.commitEncoding</code> is used instead.</p>
</div>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that we deliberately chose not to re-code the commit log
message when a commit is made to force UTF-8 at the commit
object level, because re-coding to UTF-8 is not necessarily a
reversible operation.</p>
