Although I've already decided to merge it up, there are small
fallout from this.  I've fixed the ones I noticed, but there
probably remain some backward compatibility issues in commands
that I do not usually use.  We'll see.

Also I merged the commit prettyprinter change, but I was hoping
we could instead pass down the commit object and commit format
to places where log message needs to be output and write it out
to the standard output instead of formatting in core.
