Git log format error

When I type git log, it shows:

ESC[33m0136a75  ESC[34m%>(12)Fri Feb 10 07:19:55 2017   
ESC[32m%<(7)Tran Le     
ESC[31m (HEAD, origin/jpt-dev, jpt-dev) 
ESC[mImprove search in jpTlogMonitor
ESC[33m809b3a9  ESC[34m%>(12)Wed Feb 8 09:54:38 2017    
ESC[32m%<(7)Tien Pham   ESC[31m ESC[mFix jpTgenNetconf_SUITE test_timeout testcase
ESC[33me366d23  ESC[34m%>(12)Tue Feb 7 10:33:57 2017

So I think something wrong in my config. What is the main reason?

As @poke commented : what you see are escape sequences (see for example this link), which should be interpreted by your terminal as signals to say "display the following text in yellow", "display the following text in bold", etc ...

  • you can try another terminal (e.g : git bash under windows),

  • git should turn off colors if it detects it is not writing to a terminal :

    $ git log | less

  • or you can tell git to never display colors on your PC :

    $ git config --global color.ui false

    ( see the documentation : Colors in git )
