The --author-format option allows some customization for how the author is displayed.

  • both: The current default, username and email
  • name: Only the author's name.
  • email: Likewise, only the email
  • none: No author info please.

The --omit-author option allows for pruning author's from the output. This is very nice for single-developer projects where including "Some Name <somename@gmail.com>" for every single entry is redundant, and a waste of bytes. What I prefer for my projects is to omit my own author info (it is assumed) and include the author info for every other contribution made to my project.

If these features are of interest I can work up some tests in the future.
