Only relevant commits for range

[cpfaff]

Will there be a command to only show relevant commits to a range of lines that have been visual selected?

Interesting suggestion, thanks. :GV command is now enabled in visual mode and in that case -L option is set which tracks down the commits for the selected lines. Needs some polishing though, but it works as expected.

Wow that was fast thank you. Tried it and it works nicely. However I find it a bit confusing having the patches listed all in one buffer all opened to browse through. Could you implement the same behaviour as it is with just calling :GV. Having a browser like experience and that selecting a commit on the left then opens the patch on the right? That would be amazing.

I felt the same way at first. But that's how git log -L works, and this plugin does not perform any post-processing on the output of the command which is why it's much faster than gitv, and I'm not going to change that. So until git adds a native option to exclude the diff content, we'll stick with the current format. Note that you can move between commits with ]] and [[ mappings. Those might help in a little.

OK. Thanks. I will try out the mappings.
