Well, then try an option that does work. On my system less and more are essentially the same and -i just causes it to ignore case on searches. The PAGER is automatically setup to 'less -XRse' on my system (not sure why). Changing it to 'more' makes git-log work, but it should work with 'less -XRse' as well since that works with other commands on the system (e.g. man) and git-whatchanged as well.
