Documented steps One-line summary with `git log --oneline` (shorthand for `--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit`). Custom one-line output with placeholders: `git log --pretty=format:"%h %an %ad %s" --date=short`. Visualize branch graph: `git log --graph --oneline --decorate --all`. Limit results: `git log -n 5`, `git log --since="2 weeks ago"`, `git log --author="name"`, `git log --grep="keyword"`. Filter merge commits: `git log --merges` / `--no-merges`; follow a file across renames with `git log --follow -- <file>`. Use `tformat:` to append a newline after each entry (preferred); an unrecognized format string starting with % is treated as tformat. Official docs: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-log Known gotchas Key placeholders: %h abbreviated hash, %an/%ae author name/email, %ad author date (respects --date=), %s subject, %d ref names, %cr relative date. `A..B` means commits reachable from B but not A; `A...B` is the symmetric difference (both sides) — useful for merge reviews. Commit-limiting options (--since, -n, --author, --grep) apply before formatting/ordering options like --reverse. For script-safe output use --format=%H (full hash) rather than %h (ambiguous abbreviated-hash collision risk).
