--commit-list-format=<format-spec>::
Specify the format in which to generate the commit list of the patch
series. The accepted values for format-spec are `shortlog`, `modern` or a
format-string prefixed with `log:`.
e.g. `log: %s (%an)`
The user is allowed to drop the prefix if the format-string contains a
`%<placeholder>`.
If not given, defaults to the `format.commitListFormat` configuration
variable.

a format-string prefixed with `log:`. E.g. `log: %s (%an)`.
`modern` is the same as `log:%w(72)[%(count)/%(total)] %s`.
The `log:` prefix can be omitted if the format-string has a `%` in it
(expecting that it is part of `%<placeholder>`).
