Any way to include commit hash in the display?

Any way to include commit hash in the display without selecting a commit?

[bschaaf]

It’s not clear what you mean, can you be more specific?

I guess the qeustion is whether commit hash can be displayed in commit list - maybe as description of each item (next to author or date).

G’day @heyya,

Thank you for reaching out!

It’s currently not possible to display the commit hash in the commit graph.

I’d love to learn more about your use-case here, so I can consider the UX of including the commit hash in the graph. When you have a chance, could you please share the situations where you would benefit from the commit hash being displayed here.

Cheers,

The short/abbreviated commit hash in the commit list helps quickly visually locate a recent commit by its hash, without using the search function (which hides other commits) or reading commit messages. I do this sometimes .

IMO, short hashes are easy to scan through because they’re of fixed/similar lengths (compared to variable-length commit messages), and even more so if they’re monospaced & aligned in the commit list. They’re also very different across adjacent commits, which lets you scan faster by reading the first few characters of the hash.

perhaps the first 6 characters of the hash, like the right side column on GitHub
