How about 'n' or > '#' since it's just a count? Seconded, sorry for discussing the color of bikeshed, but 'v' is also not intuitive to me. Since it is still a counter, and we are removing the 'g' in the second part, cXXXXX-HASH is still distinguishable with the old cXXXXX-gHASH. Or, maybe call it gXXXXX-HASH which stands for git commit count XXXXX, with hash value HASH? Best, Li-Wen
