Some default settings should be changed #5030
Comments

That's not really linked to that but since we discuss about it... What do you think about displaying only the abbreviated sha1 in the revision grid? |
|
I like all of these proposals and will keep an eye out for other defaults we may like to change. Can you move the idea about abbreviated SHA-1 in the grid to a new issue please? It would likely be a separate PR to one about default settings. What's required to reset my settings to factory defaults? I'd like to share the unboxing experience. |

@jbialobr Are you sure that's a good idea? This option is more to rescue lost commits and could make the display cumbersome when doing some rebase/amend. I'm afraid that the beginners won't understand why there are commits dangling like that...
I'm pretty sure that it's the default to display date as relative. Because I don't like that option and that's one of the first disable when using a new computer... But I don't want to enforce my choice on this one because I don't know if it's just a matter of taste or if there is a real value to use on format more than the other. I let you choose about this one... |

Doesn't git already give you the shortest it can say is unique. Shortest
is still variable length.

Show SHA-1" in the revision grid (I show it multiple times and devs found
it very convenient once they know it ;) )

I believe "relative dates" is on by default. I don't mind it personally.
Sha1 in the grid? I never had it on, don't care either way. I think the
font for Sha1 is different from the rest and needs to be aligned.

Can we close this? |

🤓 good first issue
up-for-grabs
There are some settings that I think that the default value is not well chosen.
And to improve the discoverability and because that's easier to disable a feature than enabling it because we don't know it exists, I think that the default value should be changed.
I could think about 3 at the moment.
What do you think about?
Are there others?
