Hi thanks, this was precisely what I was looking for. However

I run

 git log --graph --color --format='%C(auto)changeset: %h:%H%nuser:      %an%ndate:      %ad%nsummary:   %s%n'   | git name-rev --refs=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD) --name-only --stdin

And it does not work

 git log --graph --color --format='%C(auto)changeset: %h:%H%nuser:      %an%ndate:      %ad%nsummary:   %s%n'

Works but what comes after the pipe is not recognized I obtain

Illegal variable name.

I am running

git --version git version 2.7.4
