Additionally, "[PATCH]" will be stripped from the commit description.
+If no revisions are passed on the command line and either standard input
+is not a terminal or there is no current branch, 'git shortlog' will
+output a summary of the log read from standard input, without
+reference to the current repository.

OPTIONS
-------
--h, \--help::
+-h::
+--help::
Print a short usage message and exit.
--n, \--numbered::
+-n::
+--numbered::

of author alphabetic order.
--s, \--summary::

+--summary::
Suppress commit description and provide a commit count summary only.
-FILES
------
+-e::
+--email::
+ Show the email address of each author.
+
+--format[=<format>]::
+ Instead of the commit subject, use some other information to
+ describe each commit. '<format>' can be any string accepted
+ by the `--format` option of 'git log', such as '* [%h] %s'.
+ (See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section of linkgit:git-log[1].)
+
+ Each pretty-printed commit will be rewrapped before it is shown.
+
+-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]::
+ Linewrap the output by wrapping each line at `width`. The first
+ line of each entry is indented by `indent1` spaces, and the second
+ and subsequent lines are indented by `indent2` spaces. `width`,
+ `indent1`, and `indent2` default to 76, 6 and 9 respectively.
