The use case was cherry-picking a bunch of commits from one branch to another, which prevents me from working around the lack in functionality by switching to `mybranch` and typing `ll`.\r\n\r\nThe `=b` argument doesn't help because as the `git-log` man page says:\r\n\r\n    If pattern lacks ?, *, or [, /* at the end is implied.\r\n\r\nSo typing `=bmybranch` doesn't work (and IMHO that would be too many keystrokes even if it did).\r\n\r\nMaybe it's worth adding `lb` which prompts for one or more commit-ishs which get passed as arguments to `git log`?"}}
