That looks like an issue in gitlog-parser. Is the repo public? /cc @yorkie

[theladyjaye]

No, unfortunately the repo is not public.

@aventurella may I ask you to console.log(chunk+'') and post your result here? It seems like your commit message is invalid that has no first line :)

[theladyjaye]

I am including the chunk from line 33 and line 37.

I can -e with an email I end up at line 37, and I can -e with another name not an email and I end up at line 33.

Line 33 (no email):

Fri Nov 18 16:38:09 2016 -0800 5e7a105 (HEAD -> dev) chore(web): edit startup output  [Adam Venturella]

Line 37 (via email):

Fri Nov 18 15:59:30 2016 +0000 9cd6fbf Merge pull request #124 in PROJECT/web from feature/thing to dev  [Adam Venturella (Contractor)]

[theladyjaye]

I know what it is...

In my ~/.gitconfig I have my format set

[format]
      pretty = format:%C(blue)%ad%Creset %C(yellow)%h%C(green)%d%Creset %C(blue)%s %C(magenta) [%an]%Creset

When I turn this off it fixes it.

[yorkie]

Yup, thus can removing gitconfig fix your problem so that we could close this issue?

[IonicaBizau]

I guess it'll be better to use an option in the git log command to use the default config. There should be one, I just don't know how it should look like. 😁

[theladyjaye]

Yup, i think it's safe to close the issue. It might just be worth mentioning this in the docs.
