✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so bestie, Std is the standard output filter for displaying log messages. That's literally its whole job and it eats every time 🫶

The log format? It's designed to be similar to the output of Subversion's log command. Family resemblance, iconic behavior, we love to see it 🌈

And here's the tea: two arguments to the log command can modify the standard output format 👀

🎀 quiet

Slap this command-line option on the log command and the contents of the log message will not be displayed. Poof. Gone. 🙈

But don't panic — all other information is displayed as usual. You're just skipping the message body, not the whole vibe ✨

🦋 verbose

Give the log command this command-line option and it will display history information for each revision 💚

That history includes:

• the kind of modification — modify, add, delete
• and any copy history for each path that was modified in the revision

so like, the full lore, not just the summary. main character energy fr fr 👑

---

💜 STASH/PROPERTY MODIFICATIONS 💜

Std leaves all properties and the stash intact. It touches nothing, it minds its business, it's a respectful queen 🧚

---

lowkey the most well-behaved filter in the whole log pipeline. not me being obsessed with a manpage 😭
