Decorations, like color and refs pointing to a commit, are for humans,
and humans read the terminal.  If the command's output doesn't go to a
terminal, then no such decorations are shown by default.

Try invoking 'git log --decorate'; or, better yet, use your custom
'--format=', especially if you intend to parse the output,
