---pretty[='<format>']::
-
- Pretty-prints the details of a commit. `--pretty`
- without an explicit `=<format>` defaults to 'medium'.
- 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. Here are some additional details for each format:

The 'format:' 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'.

---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

- preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
- defaults to UTF-8.
