To help make the ellipses more visible, you could put them in their own <span> and let the skin figure out what looks best. Also, instead of using "...", what about "[+]"?
Something that I consider a functional inconsistency with the current implementation is that after the "..." is clicked on, there is no way to hide the now visible details. A possible solution would be have a "[-]" to re-hide the info. Another issue that I noticed with timeline?commentformat=2 is the the hash does not always appear at the end of the commit message. Take this commit line as an example: "Edit [a46b9e77]: Edit check-in comment. •••" On Sat, Nov 25, 2017 at 5:31 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Man, are those ellipses absolutely necessary? > (So close with the previous uncluttered timeline.) > Is it possible to make the 1st word/sentence of the checkin comment a > hyperlink to the extra info? > > On Sat, Nov 25, 2017 at 5:51 PM, Marc Simpson <[email protected]> wrote: > >> One other (potential) problem: without the hash prefix, descriptions >> run together. >> >> Example: http://www.sqlite.org/src/timeline, 2017-11-24.
