- enriquto 6y agoSure, sure, but why would such a sanitization remove useful things like terminal drawing codes? That would be untoward.
- theamk 6y agoit was, note the twitter had you pass "--no-pager" to get cursor movement to work. With default options, you only get colors, and this is pretty safe.
- ryan-c 6y agoIt's a bit more complicated than that. For example, if you do git log --format=%ae | sort -u the cursor movement sequences will be preserved. I haven't delved too deeply into what git actually does here in terms of processing for "pager" output vs not.
- ryan-c 6y ago...and for this "display some art" hack specifically, it looked like it can be made to work with plain git log by using `\r` characters as newlines in addition to the escape sequences, but I haven't tested that much.
