git log summary

I am new to git and I am trying to accomplish the following: I want to print a short summary listing commits title, author, timestamp(optional), and just number of addition/deletion/update.

What I have done is I use git log --shortstat --oneline and it almost achieves my requirements except it lacks the author that committed the changes. Can I tweak the command abit to show the author as well?

P/S: This is what I get from the command above and I want it to show the authors as well.

2d2b0b9 Commit#1 **[Authors]**    
 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)
e90dc73 Commit#2 **[Authors]**    
 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-)

Have a look at git log --pretty=format:<format string>, Here is a good explanation.

For exmaple

git log --pretty=format:"%h - %an (%ae): %s" --shortstat

will give you the hash (%h), the author name and email (%an, %ae) and the subject (%s), followed by the --shortstat line
