Hi I would like to propose adding ability to display the commit message option to the Show Revision Information (in addition to Author and Id). I think the commit message information helps understand the intention of the lines added, and highly improves debugging abilities.

Both github and vs code have this information, and I find it highly useful (see pictures attached).

If you hover over the blame information of any line there's a popup showing the full commit message.
Though, I agree it might make sense to add an option allowing to show the first line of the commit message
in the revision information in the side bar.
