Maybe my advices will be not suitable: I know how ref-filter works,
but I know only a few about pretty system. The main point is that we
need to save backward compatibility, and that means that we can't just
drop pretty logic and start using ref-filter one there. I guess it's
not so hard to make like translation table between pretty commands and
ref-filter one. For example, 'short' in pretty means 'commit
%(objectname)%0aAuthor: %(author)' in ref-filter. So if I wanted to
change pretty logic, I would add support of all ref-filter commands
and make translation table for backward compatibility. Hope it was
helpful.
