one final comment and then I promise we will never speak of this again. It is possible that this is a Windows-specific issue. On Windows the format '%H %ci' is not acceptable while the format "%H %ci" works correctly, see below:
....................................................................... C:\Users\penne_000\AppData\Roaming\InkscapeGit>git log --pretty=format:'%H %ci' 0edfdf95 fatal: ambiguous argument '%ci'': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
C:\Users\penne_000\AppData\Roaming\InkscapeGit>git log --pretty=format:"%H %ci" 0edfdf95 0edfdf950796befdb42ab9b2ef76c76483d9dbb1 2017-06-21 21:04:53 -0300
