It's only value is that it's easier to type than a hash. Well it is a bit like in mercurial, the HASH is important while these local rev numbers are just for convenience, in hg they start however from the first commit up, not like in git from HEAD down. >> That works fine for small repositories but for GNU emacs this command >> leads, at least on my 5 year old Laptop to a core dump. > Works fine for me, and my laptop is 2 years older. ;-) Then it is either the fact that I am still on Ubuntu 16.04 or more likely using git 2.7.4. >> I presume the reason is that git «calculates» these numbers on the >> fly. > Yes, probably. >> So a simple solution to the problem would be to reduce the numbers of >> name-rev git shall calculate. >> >> I cannot find any option doing this. >> >> Any idea what to do? > Do you really need to show the log back into the 80ies? You mean commits like * commit 0:ce5584125c44a1a2fbb46e810459c50b227a95e2 Author: Jim Blandy <j...@redhat.com> Date: Thu, 18 Apr 1985 00:48:29 +0000 entered into RCS Actually, not really 😇 > If not, use > something like "--since 2years" in your git log invocation. This is what is was looking for but even git log --since=6months --graph --color=always --all --decorate --pretty=short | git name-rev --stdin | less -R Segmentation fault (core dumped) I think I will try to upgrade git.
