So I have been using the original patch for a bit over a week now, and
I have to say that I'm not sure it's the right thing to do after all.
Most of the time I much prefer the "decorations at the end" thing,
because it just looks better, and the commit log oneliners line up
nicely.
But then occasionally I end up liking the old interface better, just
because there's long commit lines, and showing the decoration at the
end effectively hides it.
So I vacillate between the two formats, and so I'm not sure this patch
is worth the change in behavior after all.
In fact, I played around with some formats, and the one I lines the
most was actually one that split the line for decorations, but that
one was admittedly pretty funky. It gives output like

(which looks better with colorization than it looks in the email).
But I'm not even going to send out that patch, because it was such an
atrocious hack to line things up.
