It should be possible to implement this for equal lines and changes for which left change side size = right change side size. But what about changes which have different size on left and right side?

Thanks, I have adjusted topic title and subject.

We could probably offer an editable combo-box instead of a plain text field.

That's a completely different operation because it's not using pure Git functionality but instead adds and interprets special lines of the commit message.

I would suggest the following: convert this topic to "Commit: support for 'Co-authored-by'" (https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-commit-with-multiple-authors) and have another topic for the editable Author combo-box in Edit Author?

I'm not exactly sure which links you are interested in, but SmartGit 19.1 preview shows links in the Output view. I.e., if Gerrit sends back the appropriate link, you should be able to click it there already. Can you please confirm?

We have an internal RFE "Log: filter should (optionally) not hide but gray unmatched commits" (SG-12145). This seems to be a more general approach to the problem. zuber, will it be OK for you if I will change this topic to match the more general approach?

Fixed for 19.1 preview, build 14114.

Fixed in 19.1 preview.

Completed in 19.1 preview 5.
