Claude Code v2.1.285 ·

Your git log format setting no longer affects Claude Code's git commands

Claude Code now runs its own git commands with format.pretty=medium so a custom log format cannot break how it reads the output

What

When Claude Code runs git itself, it forces a few settings so your personal git configuration cannot change the output. It now also sets format.pretty to medium, git's standard layout for commit logs.

Why

If you have set a custom log format in your git configuration, Claude Code can still read git's output correctly. Your own git commands are not affected.
