It looks OK, tho I'm not convinced about the vc-log-short-style customization. Maybe I misunderstand what is meant by "short log", but I have the impression that you might want both short and long logs both for dirs and for files, depending on the situation. So maybe a better solution would be to use a different command or a prefix arg to choose, rather than a custom-var. Stefan
