Adds a "Copy commit reference" button to every commit page on GitLab.
Adds a "Copy commit reference" button to every commit page. An example of a commit reference is:
The reference format in git.git repository has been implemented in commit 1f0fc1d (pretty: implement 'reference' format, 2019-11-20).
Such references are a good way of providing context in commit messages.
The userscript puts both plain text and HTML content to the clipboard. The HTML version of the commit reference includes clickable links to the website. This is useful in rich text editors: Slack, visual mode of Jira, MediaWiki, etc.
The userscript is set up with @match rules for public hostings. You might have
to manually add your URL as a "User match" in the settings of the userscript.
Tampermonkey instructions
@match field of the metadataUserscripts for other Git hosting providers are available in set Git: copy commit reference.
If you use IntelliJ-based IDEs (IDEA, PyCharm, CLion, Goland, etc), you might also find plugin Copy Commit Reference useful.
Feel free to leave feedback on Greasy Fork, GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, or Gitea.
