Is there a way to switch it off ? cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weigelt@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ``` ## Andreas Schwab, 2011-07-24 07:36 Subject: Re: git-show / tig: no indention for commit message Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/m2pql0m8og.fsf%40linux-m68k.org In-Reply-To: <20110511113655.GB24644@nibiru.local> ``` Enrico Weigelt writes: > I often have to copy+paste commit messages from tig (when putting > changes into TFS manually ;-o), and the 4-spaces indention is quite > unhandy here. Is there a way to switch it off ? You could use git cat-file instead.

Is there a way to switch it off ? Why not configure a keybinding to run a small shell script, where you can use xclip or something similar to copy to the clipboard? The following .git/config example abuses a git alias (in place of a shell script) to output the raw commit text when P is pressed: [tig "bind"] generic = P !git copy-commit-message %(commit) [alias] copy-commit-message = !"git log --format=%B -1" -- Jonas Fonseca ```
