+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #57468 +++ R3.4. Bug 75468 got marked as FIXED but it is definitely not. Only the author is shown but neither the date nor the commit comment. This is justified in bug 57468 with: > Also, the date and commit >comment are not shown becuase of the lack of space where the information is >displayed. I disagree with that. Like the author, the commit comment and the date can be very important information and if a user decides to need it, it will love to pay for the additional required space (e.g. an additional line below the revision). Currently my workflow when reviewing incoming changes is: 1. click on file in Synchronize view 2. click on History fast view icon to see the comment 3. look at the changes Yes, I could pin the History view (i.e. not have it as fast view) but then the horizontal space for the compare editor becomes very small. Also, another approach would be to show this information when hovering over the revision (area).
Dani, are you able to display the file author in a compare editor? I did turn on the option mentioned by Michael in bug 57468, comment 6 (btw, don't know why, but it's in Team preferences page now) but I can see no difference.
>Dani, are you able to display the file author in a compare editor? Yes, but it depends how you open it (argh!), see bug 80577. Open it via Synchronize view.
Created attachment 107725 [details] Adds comment to ResourceDiffCompareInput and FileRevisionTypedElement First step: enhances the model with a comment.
No time to address the issue now. However I'm keen provide help in case someone creates a patch.
I'd like to see at least the comment. I'll see what I can do for 3.7.
(In reply to comment #5) > I'd like to see at least the comment. I'll see what I can do for 3.7. Dani, is it still in the 3.7 plan?

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
