Subject: [PATCH v3 7/7] pretty: add pointer and tag options to %(decorate)

From: Andy Koppe <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2023 22:16:19 +0100

Add pointer and tag options to %(decorate) format, to allow to override
the " -> " string used to show where HEAD points and the "tag: " string
used to mark tags.

Document in pretty-formats.txt and test in t4205-log-pretty-formats.sh.
