Nice work @extrawurst !

We were just talking about how to recover old versions of projects last Friday. Using Fugitive's :GcLog is one of my go to ways to walk through the log of the repo, or :GcLog % to walk through the history of a single file.

The History log view is a great alternative to :GcLog %. Everyone on my team has gitui installed, but not all use vim, its so nice to have some common ground between everyones setup.
