Ah, you're totally right: good catch. I think it's avoidable by smashing
the first two lines into one. If the subshell prints nothing, then the
first line will start with "-$(git log ...)", otherwise, if it does
print something, then the echo will print a newline to separate it from
the "-$(git log ...) output which will go on the second line.

But that is definitely uglier than my first suggestion, so I'm glad that
you didn't try and make what I wrote above work :).

Thanks,
