I made a commit in Github for Windows just now with an exceptionally long message. Even with the window maximized, I can’t read the whole thing, and more importantly it doesn’t let me scroll down to look at the file changes. Just make a long commit as a test and you should see what I’m talking about. I’m not a fan of typing in a console to do things that should be done with a GUI, so I’d love to know about a way to fix this. Google offers nothing.
I filed a report with Github as well, and got the response:
So it looks like it’s not possible right now, and apparently I’m the only person in the world that writes commit messages longer than 60 lines.
