The `%d` placeholder will use the "short" decoration +format if `--decorate` was not already provided on the command line. + +If you add a `{plus}` (plus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, a line-feed +is inserted immediately before the expansion if and only if the +placeholder expands to a non-empty string. + +If you add a `-` (minus sign) after '%' of a placeholder, line-feeds that +immediately precede the expansion are deleted if and only if the +placeholder expands to an empty string. + +* 'tformat:' ++ +The 'tformat:' format works exactly like 'format:', except that it +provides "terminator" semantics instead of "separator" semantics. In +other words, each commit has the message terminator character (usually a +newline) appended, rather than a separator placed between entries. +This means that the final entry of a single-line format will be properly +terminated with a new line, just as the "oneline" format does. +For example: ++ +--------------------- +$ git log -2 --pretty=format:%h 4da45bef \ + | perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/' +4da45be +7134973 -- NO NEWLINE + +$ git log -2 --pretty=tformat:%h 4da45bef \ + | perl -pe '$_ .= " -- NO NEWLINE\n" unless /\n/' +4da45be +7134973 +--------------------- ++ +In addition, any unrecognized string that has a `%` in it is interpreted +as if it has `tformat:` in front of it.
