277<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
278<div class="sectionbody">
Junio C Hamano7d23f5e2006-12-16 07:44:04[diff] [blame]279<p>Shows one or more objects (blobs, trees, tags and commits).</p>
280<p>For commits it shows the log message and textual diff. It also
281presents the merge commit in a special format as produced by
282<em>git-diff-tree --cc</em>.</p>
283<p>For tags, it shows the tag message and the referenced objects.</p>
284<p>For trees, it shows the names (equivalent to <a href="git-ls-tree.html">git-ls-tree(1)</a>
285with --name-only).</p>
286<p>For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents.</p>
Junio C Hamanod3339982007-02-09 08:38:48[diff] [blame]287<p>The command takes options applicable to the <a href="git-diff-tree.html">git-diff-tree(1)</a> command to
288control how the changes the commit introduces are shown.</p>
Junio C Hamanod9d71c02006-02-08 00:52:33[diff] [blame]289<p>This manual page describes only the most frequently used options.</p>

308<p>
Junio C Hamanoa3770f92007-07-25 08:53:33[diff] [blame]309 Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
Junio C Hamano0430e3a2007-05-15 03:13:17[diff] [blame]310 where <em>&lt;format&gt;</em> can be one of <em>oneline</em>, <em>short</em>, <em>medium</em>,
311 <em>full</em>, <em>fuller</em>, <em>email</em>, <em>raw</em> and <em>format:&lt;string&gt;</em>.
Junio C Hamanoa3770f92007-07-25 08:53:33[diff] [blame]312 When omitted, the format defaults to <em>medium</em>.

Junio C Hamanoee695f22007-06-21 00:35:36[diff] [blame]316--abbrev-commit
317</dt>
318<dd>
319<p>
320 Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
321 name, show only handful hexdigits prefix. Non default number of
322 digits can be specified with "--abbrev=&lt;n&gt;" (which also modifies
323 diff output, if it is displayed).
324</p>
325<p>This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
326people using 80-column terminals.</p>

328<dt>

330</dt>
331<dd>
332<p>
333 The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message
334 in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
335 command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
336 preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
337 defaults to UTF-8.
338</p>
339</dd>
340</dl>
341</div>
342<h2>PRETTY FORMATS</h2>
343<div class="sectionbody">
344<p>If the commit is a merge, and if the pretty-format
345is not <em>oneline</em>, <em>email</em> or <em>raw</em>, an additional line is
346inserted before the <em>Author:</em> line. This line begins with
347"Merge: " and the sha1s of ancestral commits are printed,
348separated by spaces. Note that the listed commits may not
349necessarily be the list of the <strong>direct</strong> parent commits if you
350have limited your view of history: for example, if you are
351only interested in changes related to a certain directory or
352file.</p>
353<p>Here are some additional details for each format:</p>

455<p>
456<em>raw</em>
457</p>
458<p>The <em>raw</em> format shows the entire commit exactly as
459stored in the commit object. Notably, the SHA1s are
460displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or
461--no-abbrev are used, and <em>parents</em> information show the
462true parent commits, without taking grafts nor history
463simplification into account.</p>

Junio C Hamanoa3fd83c2007-03-02 10:34:36[diff] [blame]465<li>
466<p>
467<em>format:</em>
468</p>
469<p>The <em>format:</em> format allows you to specify which information
470you want to show. It works a little bit like printf format,
471with the notable exception that you get a newline with <em>%n</em>
472instead of <em>\n</em>.</p>
Junio C Hamano0430e3a2007-05-15 03:13:17[diff] [blame]473<p>E.g, <em>format:"The author of %h was %an, %ar%nThe title was &gt;&gt;%s&lt;&lt;%n"</em>
Junio C Hamanoa3fd83c2007-03-02 10:34:36[diff] [blame]474would show something like this:</p>

674<div class="sectionbody">
675<p>At the core level, git is character encoding agnostic.</p>
676<ul>
677<li>
678<p>
679The pathnames recorded in the index and in the tree objects
680 are treated as uninterpreted sequences of non-NUL bytes.
681 What readdir(2) returns are what are recorded and compared
682 with the data git keeps track of, which in turn are expected
683 to be what lstat(2) and creat(2) accepts. There is no such
684 thing as pathname encoding translation.
685</p>
686</li>
687<li>
688<p>
689The contents of the blob objects are uninterpreted sequence
690 of bytes. There is no encoding translation at the core
691 level.
692</p>
693</li>
694<li>
695<p>
696The commit log messages are uninterpreted sequence of non-NUL
697 bytes.
698</p>
699</li>
700</ul>
701<p>Although we encourage that the commit log messages are encoded
702in UTF-8, both the core and git Porcelain are designed not to
703force UTF-8 on projects. If all participants of a particular
704project find it more convenient to use legacy encodings, git
705does not forbid it. However, there are a few things to keep in
706mind.</p>
707<ol>
708<li>
709<p>
710<tt>git-commit-tree</tt> (hence, <tt>git-commit</tt> which uses it) issues

Junio C Hamano775a0f42006-12-31 01:19:14[diff] [blame]712 like a valid UTF-8 string, unless you explicitly say your
713 project uses a legacy encoding. The way to say this is to
Junio C Hamano35bb3f62007-02-19 05:35:53[diff] [blame]714 have i18n.commitencoding in <tt>.git/config</tt> file, like this:

Junio C Hamano775a0f42006-12-31 01:19:14[diff] [blame]723help other people who look at them later. Lack of this header
724implies that the commit log message is encoded in UTF-8.</p>

727<p>
728<tt>git-log</tt>, <tt>git-show</tt> and friends looks at the <tt>encoding</tt>

743<p>Note that we deliberately chose not to re-code the commit log
