"git show 3af71ac" is enough. With my proposal, depending on the terminal configuration, double-clicking on the hash would select it alone. Not having the hash is of course not an option, I am sure we all agree on this point. > But since the Git hash is already appended I don't see too much problem with > that. The thing is you have to think of convenience for everybody. Think of users who do barely know what a command line is, let alone what Git is: someone tells them to get a newer version of ffmpeg, they download it from somewhere, they need to be able to know which one is more recent, and by how much because upgrading from a three years old version to a two years and a half one is a bit useless. Think of advanced users replying on the mailing-lists, they have a Git tree near at hand at home, but they want to trim their mail in the subway on their phones. Having as much information as possible directly at a glance is a benefit (until it becomes too much information). Regards, -- Nicolas George
