cols.

How about:
git log --pretty='format:%cd [%h] %cN: %s' --date=short upstream/master
2015-06-29 [f78329d] Tom Lane: Stamp 9.5alpha1.
2015-06-29 [85c25fd] Tom Lane: Desultory review of 9.5 release notes.
2015-06-29 [cbc8d65] Tom Lane: Code + docs review for escaping of option values (commit 11a020eb6).
2015-06-29 [07cb8b0] Andres Freund: Replace ia64 S_UNLOCK compiler barrier with a full memory barrier.
2015-06-28 [c5e5d44] Peter Eisentraut: Translation updates
