git-gui inspiration : always view current commit message and "Amend Last Commit" shortcut. #2699

Da-Buche started this conversation in General

Hi All,

I am used to the almost native git-gui tool.

I just tried gitui which felt quite complete, nicely documented and well integrated in the terminal. (Hat down for all the work done here).

However, coming from git gui, I really like to have the current commit message always visible and editable.
It feels a bit off to have a modal dialog box popping up and go back-and-forth to gather small changes with a single commit message.

I also really like the git gui "Amend Last Commit" shortcut which is simpler to use.
To achieve a similar behavior with gitui I need to open the modal commit dialog box and then press ^a to amend the last commit.
This is not very intuitive to me and I don't know how to cancel the "amend" state.
(I believe I am not the only one : #1872 )

Is there something I am missing here?
Or maybe my way of using it is wrong?

Otherwise, this would be very nice to have inside gitui as it is an impressive tools that I would like to use more.
