How do I prevent branch / tag labels being truncated in the history?

Christian Wenz February 26, 2025

In the history view, commits with more than two branches or tags have their names truncated to just three dots, as shown below.

This makes no sense, as there's always heaps of space to the right of the commit message.

How do I prevent this? It's annoying having to mouse over the label every single time I want to know what it's actually saying.

On the version I'm surrently using (3.4.17 on Win10) I don't have the issue you're showing.

It may be raletd to this: 

 

All tags are no longer shown on a commit

So it may be a bug in the newer version.


I strongly suggest Sourcetree team to allow opting out that, assuming it is a feature, or, at least, show the first 3 tags for every commit before collapsing them to a list.

Thanks for this! It does seem to be the same issue as I am also running on SourceTree 3.4.22.

I think it's an exact duplicate of my question.

To me this is a feature, but it feels like a bug to me. 

A possibility to opt out would be great.
