+--pretty[=<format>]::
+--format=<format>::
+
+ Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format,
+ where '<format>' can be one of 'oneline', 'short', 'medium',
+ 'full', 'fuller', 'reference', 'email', 'raw', 'format:<string>'
+ and 'tformat:<string>'. When '<format>' is none of the above,
+ and has '%placeholder' in it, it acts as if
+ '--pretty=tformat:<format>' were given.
++
+See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each
+format. When '=<format>' part is omitted, it defaults to 'medium'.
++
+Note: you can specify the default pretty format in the repository
+configuration (see linkgit:git-config[1]).
+
+--abbrev-commit::
+ Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object
+ name, show a prefix that names the object uniquely.
+ "--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies diff output, if it is displayed)
+ option can be used to specify the minimum length of the prefix.
++
+This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for
+people using 80-column terminals.
+
+--no-abbrev-commit::
+ Show the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name. This negates
+ `--abbrev-commit`, either explicit or implied by other options such
+ as "--oneline". It also overrides the `log.abbrevCommit` variable.
+
+--oneline::
+ This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit"
+ used together.
+
+--encoding=<encoding>::
+ The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message
+ in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the
+ command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding
+ preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this
+ defaults to UTF-8. Note that if an object claims to be encoded
+ in `X` and we are outputting in `X`, we will output the object
+ verbatim; this means that invalid sequences in the original
+ commit may be copied to the output.
+
+--expand-tabs=<n>::
+--expand-tabs::
+--no-expand-tabs::
+ Perform a tab expansion (replace each tab with enough spaces
+ to fill to the next display column that is multiple of '<n>')
+ in the log message before showing it in the output.
+ `--expand-tabs` is a short-hand for `--expand-tabs=8`, and
+ `--no-expand-tabs` is a short-hand for `--expand-tabs=0`,
+ which disables tab expansion.
++
+By default, tabs are expanded in pretty formats that indent the log
+message by 4 spaces (i.e. 'medium', which is the default, 'full',
+and 'fuller').
+
+ifndef::git-rev-list[]
+--notes[=<ref>]::
+ Show the notes (see linkgit:git-notes[1]) that annotate the
+ commit, when showing the commit log message. This is the default
+ for `git log`, `git show` and `git whatchanged` commands when
+ there is no `--pretty`, `--format`, or `--oneline` option given
+ on the command line.
++
+By default, the notes shown are from the notes refs listed in the
+`core.notesRef` and `notes.displayRef` variables (or corresponding
+environment overrides). See linkgit:git-config[1] for more details.
++
+With an optional '<ref>' argument, use the ref to find the notes
+to display. The ref can specify the full refname when it begins
+with `refs/notes/`; when it begins with `notes/`, `refs/` and otherwise
+`refs/notes/` is prefixed to form a full name of the ref.
++
+Multiple --notes options can be combined to control which notes are
+being displayed. Examples: "--notes=foo" will show only notes from
+"refs/notes/foo"; "--notes=foo --notes" will show both notes from
+"refs/notes/foo" and from the default notes ref(s).
+
+--no-notes::
+ Do not show notes. This negates the above `--notes` option, by
+ resetting the list of notes refs from which notes are shown.
+ Options are parsed in the order given on the command line, so e.g.
+ "--notes --notes=foo --no-notes --notes=bar" will only show notes
+ from "refs/notes/bar".
+
+--show-notes[=<ref>]::
+--[no-]standard-notes::
+ These options are deprecated. Use the above --notes/--no-notes
+ options instead.
+endif::git-rev-list[]
+
+--show-signature::
+ Check the validity of a signed commit object by passing the signature
+ to `gpg --verify` and show the output.
