GIT-SHORTLOG(1)

NAME
git-shortlog - Summarize 'git log' output

SYNOPSIS

    git-log --pretty=short | git-shortlog [-h] [-n] [-s] [-e] [-w]
    git-shortlog [-n|--numbered] [-s|--summary] [-e|--email] [-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]] [<committish>...]

DESCRIPTION
Summarizes git log output in a format suitable for inclusion in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by author and the first line of the commit message will be shown. Additionally, "[PATCH]" will be stripped from the commit description.

OPTIONS

-h, --help
    Print a short usage message and exit.

-n, --numbered
    Sort output according to the number of commits per author instead of author alphabetic order.

-s, --summary
    Suppress commit description and provide a commit count summary only.

-e, --email
    Show the email address of each author.

-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.

FILES
If the file .mailmap exists, it will be used for mapping author email addresses to a real author name. One mapping per line, first the author name followed by the email address enclosed by < and >. Use hash # for comments. Example:

    .ft C
    # Keep alphabetized
    Adam Morrow <adam@localhost.localdomain>
    Eve Jones <eve@laptop.(none)>
    .ft
