Description

Git is typically used with the convention that commit messages are written with a short one line subject and then a more descriptive paragraph.

Redmine however display the entire message in the comment field. In the repository overview this is OK, since linefeeds are added after the subject as specified in the commit-message. However, for the activity view, the entire message is displayed as one line (no line feeds where they are supposed to be), this means that many comments are unreadable.

I suggest that for git, firstly in the issue lists, only the first line should be displayed and that in the activity view, the commit message will be displayed with its first line following the revision and the message below should only contain the body of the message.
