Add Context - Commit History

Validations

• [X] I believe this is a way to improve. I'll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
• [X] I'm not able to find an open issue that requests the same enhancement

Problem

It would be nice to be able to ask something based on previous commits.

do the same changes as @lastCommit, but for euros instead of dollars

And add the possibility to target a commit via a branch name / commit id / commit range.

Solution

No response

This is a cool idea! While we may not immediately prioritize this, I think it is a great area for contribution. So if anyone comes across this, some further details on what I think would be a pretty straightforward PR:

• See the CONTRIBUTING.md: https://github.com/continuedev/continue/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#writing-context-providers
• In order to give the possibility of selecting a target commit, I think a "submenu" type context provider would be best
• And then it should be fairly straightforward to call git with subprocess
