View log at git revision
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently you can only view the log of HEAD, tags, branches and stashes. But I can't enter an arbitrary git hash or an alias(like FETCH_HEAD).
Describe the solution you'd like
Either add a form for pasting a revision or alias, or accept a position argument to gitui similar to the way git log REV works.
I just noticed that you currently can't view the log of a branch, tag, ... without checking it out. So something like that would probably be a requirement for this issue.
well actually if its about the detail view of a specific commit:
that could be done 🧐 its only a problem if you want to jump to that commit in the log view if its not in the current branch lineage
Yea and that's exactly what I want to do :D I guess I also misinterpreted the menu in the log view since I expected those to be for viewing and not for switching. Both are obviously useful features for gitui, the question is just if one would expect modifying options within the log view :thinking:

then its more like a dupe of #506

can you specify?
#1818 will deal with the go-to-sha-in-the-current-log part. a follow-pr could figure out that a sha is in the repo but not in the current log and just open the commit details view for that one as a popup
