Filter after open `:DiffviewFileHistory` #292

Closed LintaoAmons closed 1 year ago

Often the case, I want to filter the commit after I :DiffviewFileHistory,

So base on what I saw, I want to find the think I'm looking for.

I know that I can use :DiffviewFileHistory --grep=xxx to filter commits, So wonder if it's possible to trigger a filter input popup, when I was in commits buffer, and then filter base on the input.

Yes, that's what the option panel is for. You can open it from the file history panel by pressing g! by default. See :h :DiffviewFileHistory for more info.

Oh, that's exactly what I want!

One thing to mention is you must quit the option panel to make the filter take effect, If it's possible to make it take effect immediately after a filter was typed in, without leaving the option panel, make it more like interactive.

Updating the file history can take up to several seconds. Having the history update every time you change a flag in the option panel sounds frustrating. I prefer the way it works currently.
