Something else (~9000 commits, most of them imported from CVS). I have gitk running all the time because I want a quick way to see "where I am". That I get by pressing F5 (instead of typing in a longish command to fire up gitk) and the mentioned argument list. Also, quite a lot of the work I do is to polish a topic branch using 'git rebase -i'. By browsing through the commits, I quickly get an overview whether the branch is fine or needs more work. > Am I correct in interpreting `--all --not origin' as meaning "every > branch except those in origin/*" (i.e., all branches except the > remote-tracking ones)? Not quite. It means the same as for 'git log': The commits from all branches *but not* the commits from branch 'origin' (which is an alias for origin/master, in my case, that's what is "published"). This is my way to reduce the number of commits that are displayed and it amounts to ~300 commits. -- Hannes
