Unfortunately this is simply not possible in this case, as links in git are only from commit to paren(a), in one direction only. Besides as you can see we can have more than one "next>>" link: for merge commit there are multiple parents. Well, for branch points there are multiple commits which have given commit as (one of) its parent(s), so there can be multiple "<<prev" links as well. > I looked at your patch (first email in this thread) and from > what I gathered that it does, I like it (haven't tried it yet). > > What I like about it is the clear information it conveys: > it gives me both the commit-8 and what that commit-8 _is_. It is commit-7, but that can be easily changed. > Acked-by: Luben Tuikov <ltuikov@xxxxxxxxx> > (not that it matters in any way ;-) ) IIRC Junio asked for ACKs. -- Jakub Narebski Poland - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
