<ul></ul><p>git actually guides the users to use the first line of the log message as a subject, like in email.</p>

DISCUSSION
Though not required, it's a good idea to begin the commit message with
a single short (less than 50 character) line summarizing the change,
followed by a blank line and then a more thorough description. Tools
that turn commits into email, for example, use the first line on the
Subject: line and the rest of the commit in the body.
</pre><br />from <code>git-commit</code> manual page
<p>I think it's generally a good idea to show only the one line summary of the revision when there are lot of them to list, since I can get better view of the whole, than each commits having different heights from different lines of commit logs.</p>
<p>For instance, <a href="https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commits/master" class="external">github commits page</a> shows only the first line, and have a button where you could expand to the whole message. I personally wouldn't mind if there is no expand button, since I could click the the revision and read it inside.</p> Redmine - Feature #10968: Restore comments nowrap for revisionshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/10968?journal_id=1027002021-06-06T12:50:56ZGo MAEDA
