Ok, I got a SIGSEGV on the regexp, because I didn't react to the "first 
group" part. So I did

	git shortlog --pretty=%cD --sort-key-regex ' [0-9]*:' -ns

and it immediately segfaulted for me.

I realize that I _should_ have done

	git shortlog --pretty=%cD --sort-key-regex ' \([0-9]*\):' -ns

and then I get the expected hourly statistics, but it shouldn't have 
SIGSEGV'd either.

But cool small patch-series. This was exactly what I was looking for.
