Hi all,
It would be nice if we could add images directly to commit messages via git. The reason for this is so that we can view the history and see real examples of important UI elements. Usually during a PR we provide screenshots so that people can see how the change affects UI elements, or to show the output of specific commands that might show specific data in specific scenarios. I can also see this being useful for people that work on projects where code produces some sort of visual output where words cannot accurately describe the changes (a picture is worth 1000 words, right?).
It would be great if this sort of an integration could be considered, and I know that this would mean updating the clients, specifically the command-based clients, to interpret these images and provide a way to render them or display a link to them in some fashion. There's also the question of whether to embed the images directly in the commit message or to link out to them and download them as artefacts of the repo. And then there is the everlasting question of whether or not a git repo should contain build artefacts at all (since it can be argued that an image is a build artefact).
Lots of things to consider but I hope that I have at least started a dialogue for this to be explored further.
Thank you all for your time.
