<div class="paragraph"><p>For tags, it shows the tag message and the referenced objects.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For trees, it shows the names (equivalent to <em>git ls-tree</em>
with --name-only).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The command takes options applicable to the <em>git diff-tree</em> command to

        The names of objects to show.

<p>
        Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
        where <em>&lt;format&gt;</em> can be one of <em>oneline</em>, <em>short</em>, <em>medium</em>,
        <em>full</em>, <em>fuller</em>, <em>email</em>, <em>raw</em> and <em>format:&lt;string&gt;</em>.  See
        the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each
        format.  When omitted, the format defaults to <em>medium</em>.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository
configuration (see <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>).</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--abbrev-commit
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
        name, show only a partial prefix.  Non default number of
        digits can be specified with "--abbrev=&lt;n&gt;" (which also modifies
        diff output, if it is displayed).
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
people using 80-column terminals.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--no-abbrev-commit
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates
        <code>--abbrev-commit</code> and those options which imply it such as
        "--oneline". It also overrides the <em>log.abbrevCommit</em> variable.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--oneline
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit"
        used together.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--encoding[=&lt;encoding&gt;]
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message
        in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
        command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
        preferred by the user.  For non plumbing commands this
        defaults to UTF-8.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--notes[=&lt;ref&gt;]
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Show the notes (see <a href="git-notes.html">git-notes(1)</a>) that annotate the
        commit, when showing the commit log message.  This is the default
        for <code>git log</code>, <code>git show</code> and <code>git whatchanged</code> commands when
        there is no <code>--pretty</code>, <code>--format</code> nor <code>--oneline</code> option given
        on the command line.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the
<em>core.notesRef</em> and <em>notes.displayRef</em> variables (or corresponding
environment overrides). See <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a> for more details.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>With an optional <em>&lt;ref&gt;</em> argument, show this notes ref instead of the
default notes ref(s). The ref is taken to be in <code>refs/notes/</code> if it
is not qualified.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are
being displayed. Examples: "--notes=foo" will show only notes from

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.

<p>
<em>git commit</em> and <em>git commit-tree</em> issues
  a warning if the commit log message given to it does not look
  like a valid UTF-8 string, unless you explicitly say your
  project uses a legacy encoding.  The way to say this is to
  have i18n.commitencoding in <code>.git/config</code> file, like this:
</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>[i18n]
        commitencoding = ISO-8859-1</code></pre>

</li>
<li>
<p>
<em>git log</em>, <em>git show</em>, <em>git blame</em> and friends look at the
  <code>encoding</code> header of a commit object, and try to re-code the
  log message into UTF-8 unless otherwise specified.  You can
  specify the desired output encoding with
  <code>i18n.logoutputencoding</code> in <code>.git/config</code> file, like this:
</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>[i18n]
        logoutputencoding = ISO-8859-1</code></pre>

<code>i18n.commitencoding</code> is used instead.</p></div>
</li>
</ol></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that we deliberately chose not to re-code the commit log
message when a commit is made to force UTF-8 at the commit
object level, because re-coding to UTF-8 is not necessarily a
reversible operation.</p></div>
