I have the following log:

Add initial skeleton files & a few interfaces for new kizi/sc16 stuff
This is still FAR from complete....
I want to generate changelogs, using github markdown list format. I tried doing that using this command:
$ git log --pretty=format:"* %s%n%w(100,2,2)%+b"
However, the 2nd newline is not inserted:
* Add initial skeleton files & a few interfaces for new kizi/sc16 stuff This is still FAR from complete....
The format I'm expecting is:
* Add initial skeleton files & a few interfaces for new kizi/sc16 stuff
This is still FAR from complete....
This seems to work, but I do not get the 2-space indentation required to continue text on the current list item:
$ git log --pretty=format:"* %s%n%+b"
* Add initial skeleton files & a few interfaces for new kizi/sc16 stuff
This is still FAR from complete....
So why isn't it working when I use %w before the %+b? Am I doing something wrong? Note I'm using git version 2.10 on Windows through Git Bash.
