Nothing shown in status bar if commit message line length is too long

[TomServo3000]

If a commit message line length is too long to display in its entirety, nothing will be displayed at all in the status bar. It would be much better to concatenate the message if possible.

Hey thomaspugliese!

Are you using commit.summary in the gitblame.statusBarMessageFormat config option and this makes the status bar element disappear?

If this is the case there is not much I can do as vscode hides all status bar items that it can no longer fit in the status bar. I could add a parameter for commit.summary where you could configure the cutoff point yourself (a basic substring) but the vscode extension API does not allow me to measure if a text will fit or not.

Yes.

vscode hides all status bar items that it can no longer fit in the status bar.

That sounds like the actual bug then.

As of now there is nothing I can do here. It is being tracked in vscode#6651.
