logging - Setting git default flags on commands

I want to know if there is a way to set a flag by default for git command. Specifically, I want to set the --abbrev-commit flag so that when executing git log, I want to execute git log --abbrev-commit.

Unlike the question "is there any way to set a flag by default for a git command?", there is apparently not a configuration flag for adding --abbrev-commit to git log. Furthermore, the git manual states that I cannot create an alias: "To avoid confusion and troubles with script usage, aliases that hide existing git commands are ignored"

My third option is to invent a new alias like glog=log --abbrev-commit in my .gitconfig file. But I'd rather not invent my own DSL with new commands.

Is there another way to achieve it so that the abbrev-commit flag is set by default??

Since git version 1.7.6, git config has gained a log.abbrevCommit option which can be set to true. Thus the answer is upgrade to at least 1.7.6 (current as of this writing is 1.7.11.4) and use:

git config --global log.abbrevCommit true
