Subject: git shortlog --committer=name is documented, alas not implemented
Date: Sat, 11 May 2024 14:34:12 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <77e42d15-fcaf-5c1b-3a00-f1f1e3cedfc4@pfeifer.com> (raw)

`man git shortlog` (from git 2.45.0) has the following:

   --author=<pattern>, --committer=<pattern>
       Limit the commits output to ones with author/committer header lines 
       that match the specified pattern (regular expression). With more 
       than one --author=<pattern>, commits whose author matches any of 
       the given patterns are chosen (similarly for multiple 
       --committer=<pattern>).

Now `git shortlog --author=gerald` works as expected.

However `git shortlog --committer=gerald` results in an error:

  error: option `committer' takes no value

This is either a doc bug or an implementation issue?


Also, how does one list all commits by a certain committer (as opposed 
to author) then?


Thanks,
Gerald
