What if I want something in -vvvv except some in -vv? I think to avoid option explosion, maybe we can adopt --pretty=format:xxx from "git log" and let the user decideswhat (and how) to display. "pretty" code learns about alignment already, which may be useful here. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
