+PRETTY FORMATS
+--------------
+
+If the commit is a merge, and if the pretty-format
+is not 'oneline', 'email' or 'raw', an additional line is
+inserted before the 'Author:' line.  This line begins with
+"Merge: " and the sha1s of ancestral commits are printed,
+separated by spaces.  Note that the listed commits may not
+necessarily be the list of the *direct* 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.
+
+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
+'format:' string, as described below (see
+linkgit:git-config[1]). Here are the details of the
+built-in formats:
+
+* 'oneline'
+
+	  <sha1> <title line>
++
+This is designed to be as compact as possible.
+
+* 'short'
+
+	  commit <sha1>
+	  Author: <author>
+
+	      <title line>
+
+* 'medium'
+
+	  commit <sha1>
+	  Author: <author>
+	  Date:   <author date>
+
+	      <title line>
+
+	      <full commit message>
+
+* 'full'
+
+	  commit <sha1>
+	  Author: <author>
+	  Commit: <committer>
+
+	      <title line>
+
+	      <full commit message>
+
+* 'fuller'
+
+	  commit <sha1>
+	  Author:     <author>
+	  AuthorDate: <author date>
+	  Commit:     <committer>
+	  CommitDate: <committer date>
+
+	       <title line>
+
+	       <full commit message>
+
+* 'email'
+
+	  From <sha1> <date>
+	  From: <author>
+	  Date: <author date>
+	  Subject: [PATCH] <title line>
+
+	  <full commit message>
+
+* 'raw'
++
+The 'raw' format shows the entire commit exactly as
+stored in the commit object.  Notably, the SHA-1s are
+displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or
+--no-abbrev are used, and 'parents' 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
+`git log --raw`. To get full object names in a raw diff format,
+use `--no-abbrev`.
+
+* 'format:<string>'
++
+The 'format:<string>' 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 '%n'
+instead of '\n'.
++
+E.g, 'format:"The author of %h was %an, %ar%nThe title was >>%s<<%n"'
+would show something like this:
++
+-------
+The author of fe6e0ee was Junio C Hamano, 23 hours ago
+The title was >>t4119: test autocomputing -p<n> for traditional diff input.<<
+
+-------
++
+The placeholders are:
+
+- Placeholders that expand to a single literal character:
+'%n':: newline
+'%%':: a raw '%'
+'%x00':: print a byte from a hex code
+
+- Placeholders that affect formatting of later placeholders:
+'%Cred':: switch color to red
+'%Cgreen':: switch color to green
+'%Cblue':: switch color to blue
+'%Creset':: reset color
+'%C(...)':: color specification, as described under Values in the
+	    "CONFIGURATION FILE" section of linkgit:git-config[1].  By
+	    default, colors are shown only when enabled for log output
+	    (by `color.diff`, `color.ui`, or `--color`, and respecting
+	    the `auto` settings of the former if we are going to a
+	    terminal). `%C(auto,...)` is accepted as a historical
+	    synonym for the default (e.g., `%C(auto,red)`). Specifying
+	    `%C(always,...)` will show the colors even when color is
+	    not otherwise enabled (though consider just using
+	    `--color=always` to enable color for the whole output,
+	    including this format and anything else git might color).
+	    `auto` alone (i.e. `%C(auto)`) will turn on auto coloring
+	    on the next placeholders until the color is switched
+	    again.
+'%m':: left (`<`), right (`>`) or boundary (`-`) mark
+'%w([<w>[,<i1>[,<i2>]]])':: switch line wrapping, like the -w option of
+			    linkgit:git-shortlog[1].
+'%<(<N>[,trunc|ltrunc|mtrunc])':: make the next placeholder take at
+				  least N columns, padding spaces on
+				  the right if necessary.  Optionally
+				  truncate at the beginning (ltrunc),
+				  the middle (mtrunc) or the end
+				  (trunc) if the output is longer than
+				  N columns.  Note that truncating
+				  only works correctly with N >= 2.
+'%<|(<N>)':: make the next placeholder take at least until Nth
+	     columns, padding spaces on the right if necessary
+'%>(<N>)', '%>|(<N>)':: similar to '%<(<N>)', '%<|(<N>)' respectively,
+			but padding spaces on the left
+'%>>(<N>)', '%>>|(<N>)':: similar to '%>(<N>)', '%>|(<N>)'
+			  respectively, except that if the next
+			  placeholder takes more spaces than given and
+			  there are spaces on its left, use those
+			  spaces
+'%><(<N>)', '%><|(<N>)':: similar to '%<(<N>)', '%<|(<N>)'
+			  respectively, but padding both sides
+			  (i.e. the text is centered)
+
+- Placeholders that expand to information extracted from the commit:
+'%H':: commit hash
+'%h':: abbreviated commit hash
+'%T':: tree hash
+'%t':: abbreviated tree hash
+'%P':: parent hashes
+'%p':: abbreviated parent hashes
+'%an':: author name
+'%aN':: author name (respecting .mailmap, see linkgit:git-shortlog[1]
+	or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%ae':: author email
+'%aE':: author email (respecting .mailmap, see linkgit:git-shortlog[1]
+	or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%ad':: author date (format respects --date= option)
+'%aD':: author date, RFC2822 style
+'%ar':: author date, relative
+'%at':: author date, UNIX timestamp
+'%ai':: author date, ISO 8601-like format
+'%aI':: author date, strict ISO 8601 format
+'%cn':: committer name
+'%cN':: committer name (respecting .mailmap, see
+	linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%ce':: committer email
+'%cE':: committer email (respecting .mailmap, see
+	linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%cd':: committer date (format respects --date= option)
+'%cD':: committer date, RFC2822 style
+'%cr':: committer date, relative
+'%ct':: committer date, UNIX timestamp
+'%ci':: committer date, ISO 8601-like format
+'%cI':: committer date, strict ISO 8601 format
+'%d':: ref names, like the --decorate option of linkgit:git-log[1]
+'%D':: ref names without the " (", ")" wrapping.
+'%S':: ref name given on the command line by which the commit was reached
+       (like `git log --source`), only works with `git log`
+'%e':: encoding
+'%s':: subject
+'%f':: sanitized subject line, suitable for a filename
+'%b':: body
+'%B':: raw body (unwrapped subject and body)
+ifndef::git-rev-list[]
+'%N':: commit notes
+endif::git-rev-list[]
+'%GG':: raw verification message from GPG for a signed commit
+'%G?':: show "G" for a good (valid) signature,
+	"B" for a bad signature,
+	"U" for a good signature with unknown validity,
+	"X" for a good signature that has expired,
+	"Y" for a good signature made by an expired key,
+	"R" for a good signature made by a revoked key,
+	"E" if the signature cannot be checked (e.g. missing key)
+	and "N" for no signature
+'%GS':: show the name of the signer for a signed commit
+'%GK':: show the key used to sign a signed commit
+'%GF':: show the fingerprint of the key used to sign a signed commit
+'%GP':: show the fingerprint of the primary key whose subkey was used
+	to sign a signed commit
+'%gD':: reflog selector, e.g., `refs/stash@{1}` or `refs/stash@{2
+	minutes ago`}; the format follows the rules described for the
+	`-g` option. The portion before the `@` is the refname as
+	given on the command line (so `git log -g refs/heads/master`
+	would yield `refs/heads/master@{0}`).
+'%gd':: shortened reflog selector; same as `%gD`, but the refname
+	portion is shortened for human readability (so
+	`refs/heads/master` becomes just `master`).
+'%gn':: reflog identity name
+'%gN':: reflog identity name (respecting .mailmap, see
+	linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%ge':: reflog identity email
+'%gE':: reflog identity email (respecting .mailmap, see
+	linkgit:git-shortlog[1] or linkgit:git-blame[1])
+'%gs':: reflog subject
+'%(trailers[:options])':: display the trailers of the body as
+			  interpreted by
+			  linkgit:git-interpret-trailers[1]. The
+			  `trailers` string may be followed by a colon
+			  and zero or more comma-separated options:
+** 'key=<K>': only show trailers with specified key. Matching is done
+   case-insensitively and trailing colon is optional. If option is
+   given multiple times trailer lines matching any of the keys are
+   shown. This option automatically enables the `only` option so that
+   non-trailer lines in the trailer block are hidden. If that is not
+   desired it can be disabled with `only=false`.  E.g.,
+   `%(trailers:key=Reviewed-by)` shows trailer lines with key
+   `Reviewed-by`.
+** 'only[=val]': select whether non-trailer lines from the trailer
+   block should be included. The `only` keyword may optionally be
+   followed by an equal sign and one of `true`, `on`, `yes` to omit or
+   `false`, `off`, `no` to show the non-trailer lines. If option is
+   given without value it is enabled. If given multiple times the last
+   value is used.
+** 'separator=<SEP>': specify a separator inserted between trailer
+   lines. When this option is not given each trailer line is
+   terminated with a line feed character. The string SEP may contain
+   the literal formatting codes described above. To use comma as
+   separator one must use `%x2C` as it would otherwise be parsed as
+   next option. If separator option is given multiple times only the
+   last one is used. E.g., `%(trailers:key=Ticket,separator=%x2C )`
+   shows all trailer lines whose key is "Ticket" separated by a comma
+   and a space.
+** 'unfold[=val]': make it behave as if interpret-trailer's `--unfold`
+   option was given. In same way as to for `only` it can be followed
+   by an equal sign and explicit value. E.g.,
+   `%(trailers:only,unfold=true)` unfolds and shows all trailer lines.
+** 'valueonly[=val]': skip over the key part of the trailer line and only
+   show the value part. Also this optionally allows explicit value.
+
+NOTE: Some placeholders may depend on other options given to the
+revision traversal engine. For example, the `%g*` reflog options will
+insert an empty string unless we are traversing reflog entries (e.g., by
+`git log -g`). The `%d` and `%D` placeholders will use the "short"
+decoration format if `--decorate` was not already provided on the command
+line.
+
+If you add a `+` (plus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, a line-feed
+is inserted immediately before the expansion if and only if the
+placeholder expands to a non-empty string.
+
+If you add a `-` (minus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, all consecutive
+line-feeds immediately preceding the expansion are deleted if and only if the
+placeholder expands to an empty string.
+
+If you add a ` ` (space) after '%' of a placeholder, a space
+is inserted immediately before the expansion if and only if the
+placeholder expands to a non-empty string.
+
+* 'tformat:'
++
+The 'tformat:' format works exactly like 'format:', 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:
++
+---------------------
+$ git log -2 --pretty=format:%h 4da45bef \
+  | perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'
+4da45be
+7134973 -- NO NEWLINE
+
+$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef \
+  | perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/'
+4da45be
+7134973
+---------------------
++
+In addition, any unrecognized string that has a `%` in it is interpreted
+as if it has `tformat:` in front of it.  For example, these two are
+equivalent:
++
+---------------------
+$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef
+$ git log -2 --pretty=%h 4da45bef
+---------------------
