Hello list!

It would be very convenient if after git-pull I could see the new merged-in commits in the git-log. The simplest solution for this is to simply mark ORIG_HEAD in the output of git-log --decorate (and ideally also in gitk).

Just thought to throw in this idea to developers. Perhaps it is not that hard to implement.

Best, Yury
