Log Formats

===========

A log format controls how information about each revision is displayed.
5
 
The standard log formats are compared below::
6
 
 
7
 
  Feature                 long           short         line
8
 
  ----------------------  -------------  ------------  -------------------

  design goal             detailed view  concise view  1 revision per line

The default format is ``long``. To change this, define the ``log_format``
25
 
setting in the ``[DEFAULT]`` section of ``bazaar.conf`` like this (say)::
26
 
 
27
 
  [DEFAULT]
28
 
  log_format = short
29
 
 
30
 
Alternatively, to change the log format used for a given query, use the
31
 
--long, --short or --line options.
32
 
 
33
 
If one of the standard log formats does not meet your needs, additional
34
 
formats can be provided by plugins.
