Scroll through CommitView from the log

[arnold-c]

When in the log buffer (i.e., NeogitLogView), you can hit enter on a commit to open it in a split (i.e., NeogitCommitView). Is there a way to navigate back to the log view, and when you move your cursor down to the next commit, it updates the NeogitCommitView in the split, a little like how C-j opens the fold of the next commit message in the log?

Yup! There's bindings for OpenOrScrollUp and OpenOrScrollDown - bound to ]c and [c by default.

Ohh, sorry, misunderstood. No, there isn't really - <c-j/k> will go up and down opening and closing the folds, but I could extend it to work for the commit view if thats open :)

Not a problem at all - I wasn't very clear in my original message and can see how it would be easily interpreted that way. If you're willing to, I think this would be a great UX improvement as I often find myself scanning commits details when coming back to projects, navigating for bisects etc., and being able to do so without needing to continuously close and reopen the commit message would be great! Should I transfer this to an issue so it can be tracked for development?

Nah, all good, it should be pretty simple. Glad you suggested it, it's definitely the right move

Just updated Neogit and the new feature is great! Thanks so much for implementing it so quickly.

Sure thing! It was a good suggestion, glad you asked :)
