Commit message history on commit

[oprichnik]

A simple usefull enhancement would be to navigate between commits messages with UP / DOWN arrows when commit popup is open (to allow something like git commit -c HEAD~X).

I have implemented it here: https://github.com/dawidd6/lazygit/tree/feature/commit_history

Cycling is done with Home and End keys currently. Would be great if you @oprichnik could test it.

The home/end approach sounds good to me. Not sure how stale that implementation is but this sounds like a small-enough feature to be a good fit for hacktoberfest

[jesseduffield]

note that home/end are now being used to jump to the start/end of the commit message so we'd need to find other keybindings

@jesseduffield I'd like to pick this up if it isn't already being worked on 👍🏻

[jesseduffield]

Sounds good @Liberatys :)

[sportshead]

@jesseduffield currently Up jumps to the start of the commit message, while Down does nothing. Since Home already jumps to the start, what do you think about Up/Down for navigating through commit messages?

This has been implemented in #2390, closing.
