8 SYNOPSIS
9 --------
10 [verse]
11 git log --pretty=short | 'git shortlog' [-h] [-n] [-s] [-e] [-w]
12 'git shortlog' [-n|--numbered] [-s|--summary] [-e|--email] [-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]] [<committish>...]
14 DESCRIPTION
15 -----------
16 Summarizes 'git log' output in a format suitable for inclusion
17 in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by author and
18 the first line of the commit message will be shown.
20 Additionally, "[PATCH]" will be stripped from the commit description.
22 OPTIONS
23 -------
25 -h::
26 --help::
27 Print a short usage message and exit.
29 -n::
30 --numbered::
31 Sort output according to the number of commits per author instead
32 of author alphabetic order.
34 -s::
35 --summary::
36 Suppress commit description and provide a commit count summary only.
38 -e::
39 --email::
40 Show the email address of each author.
42 -w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]::
43 Linewrap the output by wrapping each line at `width`. The first
44 line of each entry is indented by `indent1` spaces, and the second
45 and subsequent lines are indented by `indent2` spaces. `width`,
46 `indent1`, and `indent2` default to 76, 6 and 9 respectively.
49 MAPPING AUTHORS
50 ---------------
52 The `.mailmap` feature is used to coalesce together commits by the same
53 person in the shortlog, where their name and/or email address was
54 spelled differently.
