Let's quickly fire up your CLI window from our cappuccino repository and try out the following command:
git shortlog
This should give an output as shown in the following screenshot:
We just listed out comments of 24 commits segregated by the authors who were responsible for those commits; the authors were arranged in alphabetical order in a single shot. Sounds compact and presentable, right?
It's not over yet! Shortlog has a few defined parameters which can be used to reorder or narrow down your search to extract a particular set of information from your logs.
