Inline blame gutter (author + commit age per line) #466

Description

@benvinegar

Gap

No blame context anywhere in the review.

What competitors do

revdiff shows a blame gutter (author + commit age per line); delta has syntax-highlighted blame with forge hyperlinks.

Why it matters for hunk

When judging an agent's edit, 'who/when last touched this line' is cheap, high-signal context — especially for distinguishing the agent's change from surrounding human code.

Sketch

  • Optional gutter column showing short author + relative commit age on context lines.
  • Toggle via key + config; git first (jj/sl best-effort).
