Hannes, 

Thanks for pointing that out.
I confirm that on Mac OS X that happens for rev-list as well. 

# git log --pretty=format:foo%x00bar HEAD -1 | od -c
0000000   f   o   o  \0   b   a   r
0000007

# git rev-list --pretty=format:foo%x00bar HEAD -1 | od -c
0000000   c   o   m   m   i   t       2   3   6   0   1   a   2   c   3
0000020   e   4   6   4   a   4   4   7   9   f   1   7   7   4   e   3
0000040   6   e   a   5   b   9   5   8   b   4   6   0   5   2   1  \n
0000060   f   o   o  \n
0000064

And it's not a new issue:

# git version
git version 1.7.1

So here's what we have now about this bug:
1. It happens since 1.7.1 for rev-list on all platforms (at least since 1.7.1 on Mac OS X and 1.7.3 on Linux).
2. It also happens at least since 1.7.2.3 for log on Windows.

Sorry for giving some confusion in my previous messages.
I probably tested 'rev-list' at the time when I've recovered the problem, but I reported it as a problem with 'log'.
