Looking at the commit message data, it has a 4 types of information: - The check-in link - The commit message - Leaf, Closed-Leaf - Detail (user, tags)
For me, the most important piece of information is the check-in link. Now, l have to search for the link because it is no longer in a consistent location. The commit message is next. Since the check-in link was usually the same length, the commit message starts in the same the same location for each timeline node for either format change. My commit messages range from 1 to 15 lines and I like to see the full commit message in the timeline (Allow block-markup in timeline = Enabled, Truncate comment at first blank line = Disabled) So the end of my commit messages varies quite a bit in the timeline. Leaf status and Details have not been that important to me, since that information can be viewed more clearly in other parts of fossil when needed. And yes, I know that I can click on the "time" to get to the check-in page with the new changes, but that is another non-obvious / counter-intuitive addition of the fossil UI. (The more famous being the "click on the timeline nodes to see a diff") tldr; This new change of the timeline makes it harder to find useful links.
