Git log with formatting options do not work when using -L:<funcname>:<file>

Works as intended for path --------------------------- aidan@AidanLaptop:~/Repos/git$ git log --oneline -- advice.c a20f70478f add: warn when asked to update SKIP_WORKTREE entries 3b990aa645 push: parse and set flag for "--force-if-includes" c4a09cc9cc Merge branch 'hw/advise-ng' ---------------------------

Does not work tracking a function --------------------------- aidan@AidanLaptop:~/Repos/git$ git log -L:vadvise:advice.c --oneline b3b18d1621 advice: revamp advise API

Is this a bug or am I invoking the command incorrectly?

Kind regards,
