高级git日志-不同提交者的不同颜色

Question

I currently have this alias set up on my Windows machine: ("lastcd" = "LastCommitterDate")

[alias]

lastcd = "!f() { git log -$1 --pretty=format:'%C(yellow)%h%C(reset) - %s %C(red)(%cn)%C(reset) %C(green)(%cr)%C(reset)'; }; f"

And the output would be as expected. But all committers names are displayed in red. Is it possible to display other committers as red and my own commits as a different color??

If the answer is "just do a script"

I must disappoint you.. I have little experience with the whole script.. Unix.. thingy.. Born and raised in windows. I have tried setting up scripts for git but I could only get them to work inside the "C:\\users\\me.bashrc" file. And dumping a bunch of different copy-paste scripts in there seems like a bad practice..?

If someone could give me a walk through of the set up process for a "hello world" script that would work in git bash I would be a very happy man!

Best regards Edvin

Not sure there is a way to colorize username only using git, so you might try the following:

git log --pretty=format:"%C(yellow)%h%C(reset) - %s %C(red)(%cn)%C(reset) %C(green)(%cr)%C(reset)" | sed "s/\(($(git config --get user.name)\)/$(tput setaf 4)\1/"  | less -R

The sed command finds and adds a blue color ( $(tput setaf 4) ) to your git user name ( $(git config --get user.name) ) .

less -R emulates the git log behavior showing all colors.

This works using bash on the OS I was born and raised ;-)
