It would be nice if git-log --merge --left-right did what git log --merge does but additionally, if the merge is a 2-way merge, marked commits with '<' or '>' according to which side of the merge they came from. Would that be possible? I think the visual indication that --left-right gives in gitk would be useful with --merge.

Paul.
