I am just starting out with git and have a noob question about got-log.
 I cannot get any output out of it and am wondering if I am using it
correctly or it is broken.  As I understand it, git-log should just
print out the log messages but not the changes, whereas git-whatchanged
will print out both.  But while git-whatchanged works, git-log never
does.  I have a trivial example below which shows what I mean.  But I
get the same result using my real archives and out of git.git as well.

Thanks, Bob

PS I'm using git 1.3.0 and have tried this on both Mac OS X and Linux with the same results.

Trivial example:
git-test> mkdir test-log
git-test> cd test-log
test-log> git-init-db
defaulting to local storage area
test-log> echo "Hello World" >hello
test-log> git add .
test-log> git commit -a -m 'One line hello'

test-log> echo "Hello World 2" >>hello
test-log> git commit -a -m 'Two line hello'
test-log> git whatchanged -p

As you can see git log produces no output.  I've tried it with other
options with the same result.
