I suppose this is somewhat related to https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/issues/990 except this is for the commit log.

[extrawurst]

there is a pending MR for this: https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/pull/672

[jfrob]

Aww, I completely missed that one. That should do it then.

I don't suppose that MR will include the ability to display something like git log --first-parent, will it? Should I open a separate feature request?

[extrawurst]

I don’t know, the MR is outdated for a long time. I did not have the time to revive it
