add commit count options to git-shortlogv1.4.3-rc2
This patch does 3 things: 1) Output the number of commits along with the name for each author (nice to know for long lists spending more than a screen worth of commit lines). 2) Provide a switch (-n) to sort authors according to their number of commits instead of author alphabetic order. 3) Provide a switch (-s) to supress commit lines and only keep a summary of authors and the number of commits for each of them. And for good measure a short usage is displayed with -h. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
