Show history cmd line has some issues

[gitPhate]

OS: Windows 11
Version: 2026.11

I have found some issues in history showing, I'll list them here:

1. The click on the commit hash does nothing, what should it do? I was guessing either take you to the commit in the graph or copy the hash but it does neither
2. In the 'Changes' tab the path is separated windows-style backslash '' but the files are with the unix-style slash '/' so it shows nothing:
   
3. Under the 'Files' tab there are always all files of the repo, I was expecting to find only files modified by the selected commit
4. 4. There is no way to copy the commit id whatsoever

If the target commit is displayed in current HISTORY, SourceGit will auto select it and scroll it into view. If not (for example: it has been filtered out or out-of display range), SourceGit will only show the detail info of it in details panel of HISTORY page.

In the 'Changes' tab the path is separated windows-style backslash '' but the files are with the unix-style slash '/' so it shows nothing:

I recommand you to always use Unix-style paths.

FILES panel shows all the files in the selected revision. And you can preview any file at that revision. It's may different from the files in current worktree.

CHANGES shows the only files modified by the selected commit.

If I run the history command from a cmd like so:

"C:\Program Files\SourceGit\sourcegit.exe" --history Dependencies.props

And click on the commit hash nothing happens

I recommand you to always use Unix-style paths.

It's the program that puts the windows path not me! In the example I was viewing the history of the folder docs\ux-references but when I click on 'Changes' I automatically see the filtererd path

I didn't know that, that's fine. Also for the commit hash I missed that completely, many thanks

It's because that you do not open the repository. Standalone file history viewer has some limitations.

Confirmed. It's a bug
