A custom pager config could either hide it or transform it into a lore link. That would avoid the need to wait for a new git version to trickle out to everyone. With a new atom_type, there doesn't seem to be a simple way to turn on or off a field in git-log. We'd need '--pretty=3Dlinus' or some new git config setting. Rob
