Sure, there are a number of those (eldoc comes to mind). I think the
hardest part is figuring out what to show. A 40-charater hash is
probably not very useful. The problem is that the committer information,
date, and commit message first line takes up a lot of space. But we can
of course let the echo area grow to two lines, or even three.

I don't think I'll have time to cook something up right now, though.
