The shortest possible output from git log containing author and date

Question

How can I show a git log output with (at least) this information:

* author
* commit date
* change

I want it compressed to one line per log

Answer 1

All aforementioned suggestions use %s placeholder for subject. I'll recommend to use %B because %s formatting preserves new lines and multiple lines commit message appears squashed.

git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%an%x09%ai%x09%B"
