We use a custom script to generate reports based on the git-log output. However, it appears that the output of git-log has changed in 1.4.1, and I have been unable to discover a set of flags to recreate the log format to which I have become accustomed.

In git 1.4.0, the following command...

Is there a way to generate this same format with git 1.4.1?

Thanks, Robin
