+       Instead of walking the commit ancestry chain, walk

+With '\--pretty' format other than oneline (for obvious reasons),

+used in the output.  When the starting commit is specified as
+'commit@{now}', output also uses 'commit@{timestamp}' notation
+instead.  Under '\--pretty=oneline', the commit message is
+prefixed with this information on the same line.
