Description Mark Macdonald CLA 2014-01-20 10:01:02 EST
When the git-log page shows the commit list, it displays the full commit message, even when it is very long (see attached pic). It should truncate the message, so that the page layout stays reasonable.

I think the status page has the same issue, but I didn't check.
