need vertical split on range browser #49

Open sitaramc opened 11 years ago

sitaramc commented 11 years ago

I can’t find a way to make the range browser (as described in http://www.gregsexton.org/2011/05/gitv-range/) do a vert split.

I have a terminal that is much wider than it is tall, and some of the functions I wanted to really test/play with this feature on require as much vert space as possible.

I realise a horizontal split is better if you anticipate opening up a diff view on that file later, so that is certainly a good default but it would be nice to be able to override that.

Thanks...

The range browser just makes use of the current file-based browsing capabilities. If I remember correctly, this works by making assumptions about the layout of the windows. As a result, I imagine implementing this may be quite a lot more work than it sounds.

I'm currently not making changes to gitv I'm afraid. I'll leave this issue open though so that I can revisit it in the future.

Sorry you're dealing with functions that are so long! :)

Thanks,

Greg

Hey thanks for getting back...

I'm not terribly worried about this specific issue, but I hope "currently not making changes to gitv" does not mean anything long term!
