Subject: Simplify-by-decoration with decorate-refs-exclude

Message-ID: <D941A96E-E5A8-4C86-A200-0BECA30216D1@voucoux.fr> (raw)
Hi there,
I've asked this question yesterday on stackoverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/q/57305719/2622010
And have been confirmed it does look like a bug.
Unfortunately I'm unable to update to latest git revision but a search through the release notes didn't show anything related to this problem.
I'm working in a git (v2.19.1) repo with lots of tags and branches. To get a glance of the git tree, I'd like to use the `--simplify-by-decoration` option while excluding some of the tags with `--decorate-refs-exclude=<pattern>` of `git log`, but, as per [the documentation](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-log/2.22.0#Documentation/git-log.txt---simplify-by-decoration):
> --simplify-by-decoration
>
> Commits that are referred by some branch or tag are selected.
Thus every tags are selected even those that are excluded from the decoration by the pattern.
Thus, when I enter
```
git log --oneline --graph --decorate=full --decorate-refs-exclude='refs/tags/<pattern>'
```
The selected tags are properly excluded but once I add the `simplify-by-decoration` option
```
git log --oneline --graph --decorate=full --decorate-refs-exclude='refs/tags/<pattern>' --simplify-by-decoration
```
The excluded tags pop back again.
Is there a workaround?
Étienne
