As a user, I want to find the commit I'm interested in quickly and easily.
In the date column, much of the data shown is needed only infrequently—for example, the year for recent commits, and the timestamp for older commits. Implementing an optional compact date view with rules like the following might clean up the interface and make it easier to find commits by date or time:
commit age
display
< 24 hours
10:34 PM
current year
Oct 27
older
Nov 2021
The full date and time should always be shown on hover.
