Subject: [BUG] git-log shows first parent and repeated last for octopus merge
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2006 13:11:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <eh5242$rar$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

When trying to find how many merges and how many octopus merges (merges with
more than two parents) are in git.git repository I have encountered the
following strange output of git-log:

 1000:jnareb@roke:~/git> git log --parents --full-history --max-count=1 \
   211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e -- a//b
 commit 211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e <last parent repeated>
 Merge: d0d0d0b... d0d0d0b... d0d0d0b... d0d0d0b... d0d0d0b...
 [...]

while git-show gives correct output

 1005:jnareb@roke:~/git> git show 211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e
 commit 211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e
 Merge: fc54a9c... 9e30dd7... c4b83e6... 6602659... b28858b...
 [...]

Same with git-rev-list, also shows correct output:

 1005:jnareb@roke:~/git> git rev-list --header --parents --max-count=1 \
   211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e
 211232bae64bcc60bbf5d1b5e5b2344c22ed767e [...]
