Also, I do not think you want to make the prepending of "%m%h " conditional. If the user for whatever silly reason asks to use a format "%m%h %m%h %m%h", let her have that _after_ the "%m%h " the machinery needs to operate, i.e. "%m%h %m%h %m%h %m%h". It is far easier to explain to the users and you can lose three lines from the second patch. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
