Is there a way to list the commit's author in `git rebase -i` (interactive)?

When I do a git rebase -i on a branch shared with a co-worker, I often want to just rebase my own commits. However, because the interactive rebase tool doesn't add the author information to the rebasing file (all t gives is the commit hash and description), I wind up having to go check commits in another tab to see if they are mine or not.

Is there any way to give git rebase -i a --format flag (or something like it), to make it include the author?

As of git 2.6, git rebase -i uses rebase.instructionFormat (default %s) to generate the text after pick NNNNN....

Since this is a git-config item, you can set the value per repository, for yourself in general, or even using the -c option on a one-time basis.

EDIT:

As jdknight suggested in the comments, the specific command for this would be:

git config --add rebase.instructionFormat "(%an <%ae>) %s" 

or, to avoid item repetition, as oalders suggested, you can instead set the config globally:

git config --global rebase.instructionFormat "(%an <%ae>) %s"

git -c "rebase.instructionFormat=(%an <%ae>) %s" rebase -i COMMIT_HASH

Interactive output is going to look as follows:

pick b596a7b (Nik Sumeiko <email@example.com>) Refactors type checking utilities
pick c8b815f (Attila Kerekes <email@example.com>) Implements commit message linting

Edit your .gitconfig to add:

[rebase]
    instructionFormat = %s [%an]

That will show the short commit message and then the author name in square brackets.
