I'd like to see the commit messages of the fetched commits, when I do
git pull. Is that possible?

It would also be fine to have sth. like git log --since-last-pull ?

Best regards,

I have this alias:

alias.last=log @{1}.. --decorate --reverse --stat -C --no-merges

It uses the reflog to show the commits between the old HEAD (@{1}) and
the current HEAD. You can also specify the branch that you want to see
with branch@{1}..branch@{0}.

git log ORIG_HEAD..

after the pull should do what you want.
