+--pretty[=<format>]::
+--format=<format>::
+
+	Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
+	where '<format>' can be one of 'oneline', 'short', 'medium',
+	'full', 'fuller', 'email', 'raw', 'format:<string>'
+	and 'tformat:<string>'.  When '<format>' is none of the above,
+	and has '%placeholder' in it, it acts as if
+	'--pretty=tformat:<format>' were given.
++
+See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each
+format.  When '=<format>' part is omitted, it defaults to 'medium'.
++
+Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository
+configuration (see linkgit:git-config[1]).
+
+--abbrev-commit::
+	Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
+	name, show only a partial prefix.  Non default number of
+	digits can be specified with "--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies
+	diff output, if it is displayed).
++
+This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
+people using 80-column terminals.
+
+--no-abbrev-commit::
+	Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates
+	`--abbrev-commit` and those options which imply it such as
+	"--oneline". It also overrides the `log.abbrevCommit` variable.
+
+--oneline::
+	This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit"
+	used together.
+
+--encoding=<encoding>::
+	The commit objects record the 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 `X` and we are outputting in `X`, we will output the object
+	verbatim; this means that invalid sequences in the original
+	commit may be copied to the output.
+
+--expand-tabs=<n>::
+--expand-tabs::
+--no-expand-tabs::
+	Perform a tab expansion (replace each tab with enough spaces
+	to fill to the next display column that is multiple of '<n>')
+	in the log message before showing it in the output.
+	`--expand-tabs` is a short-hand for `--expand-tabs=8`, and
+	`--no-expand-tabs` is a short-hand for `--expand-tabs=0`,
+	which disables tab expansion.
++
+By default, tabs are expanded in pretty formats that indent the log
+message by 4 spaces (i.e.  'medium', which is the default, 'full',
+and 'fuller').
+
+ifndef::git-rev-list[]
+--notes[=<treeish>]::
+	Show the notes (see linkgit:git-notes[1]) that annotate the
+	commit, when showing the commit log message.  This is the default
+	for `git log`, `git show` and `git whatchanged` commands when
+	there is no `--pretty`, `--format`, or `--oneline` option given
+	on the command line.
++
+By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the
+`core.notesRef` and `notes.displayRef` variables (or corresponding
+environment overrides). See linkgit:git-config[1] for more details.
++
+With an optional '<treeish>' argument, use the treeish to find the notes
+to display.  The treeish can specify the full refname when it begins
+with `refs/notes/`; when it begins with `notes/`, `refs/` and otherwise
+`refs/notes/` is prefixed to form a full name of the ref.
++
+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).
+
+--no-notes::
+	Do not show notes. This negates the above `--notes` 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".
+
+--show-notes[=<treeish>]::
+--[no-]standard-notes::
+	These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes
+	options instead.
+endif::git-rev-list[]
+
+--show-signature::
+	Check the validity of a signed commit object by passing the signature
+	to `gpg --verify` and show the output.
