I found this term ("pretty") in the man page. There there're some additional info about what kind of formatting you can do:
You could customize the changelog format via some git config options.
- git config changelog.format $format controls the format of each commit. It will be passed as git log --pretty=format:$format. The default value is `* %s`.
- git config changelog.mergeformat $format is like changelog.format but only used when --merges-only is specified. The default value is * %s%n%w(64,4,4)%b.Do you believe that some examples of this would be useful? Or the removal of "pretty" would be best?

@mfrw can you take a look at this and give me your thoughts as well?
