Subject: [PATCH v2] gitk: Add a "Copy commit summary" command
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 17:29:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1437060565-4716-1-git-send-email-dev+git@drbeat.li> (raw)

When referring to earlier commits in commit messages or other text, one
of the established formats is

    <abbrev-sha> ("<summary>", <author-date>)

Add a "Copy commit summary" command to the context menu that puts this
text for the currently selected commit on the clipboard. This makes it
easy for our users to create well-formatted commit references.
