How to resize Command Log view?

[mloskot]

The CTRL+@ gives "Toggle show/hide command log" and "Focus command log" where the latter simply opens (vertically) full view.

Is there any way to resize the toggled command log view, perhaps in configuration file, similarly to how the gui: sidePanelWidth: 0.4 setting works?

It would be helpful to have larger log when using with pre-commit hooks which tend to dump longish outputs, so this view could be (vertically) larger:

No, there's no way to do that currently. I wonder what's wrong with temporarily focusing the log when you get this kind of output (you can easily do that by simply clicking in the log view), and then pressing esc when you're done? To me this feels like a better workflow than permanently enlarging the log, where it would take away space from the diff view.

There is nothing wrong with it.

Perhaps my wondering about it may be due to perhaps a peculiar workflow of mine.
I use multiple screens (3-4) where one screen is dedicated to fullscreen terminal with lazygit opened permanently. That screen is my all-git-operations dashboard. So, having plenty of space for lazygit, I thought that seeing larger (bottom/last) piece of pre-commit hooks logs would save me some keystrokes (I tend to avoid mouse).

However, I take that such is a whim and not necessarily a feature useful for other lazygit users.

Is the command log size property what you are looking for @mloskot ? Default is 8 in config file.

gui:
  # Height of the command log view
  commandLogSize: 8

@carloscalla This is great as the commandLogSize: 16 does the thing for me. No idea how I missed that setting in the docs. Thanks!
