Is it possible (somehow) to have in Git (local) relative revision (commit) numbers, like in Mercurial 0, 1, 2, 3, … instead of short hashes?
Or anything more user friendly?

Just use:
master~10to get the 10th last commit on branchmaster.master^to get the second last commit on branchmaster.master^^to get the third last commit on branchmaster.They can even be combined:
master^^~5^.mastercan be any branch name (local or remote) orHEADto reference the current commit.You can use
master^2to get the second merge parent.
