Description
Hi,
I'm not sure if I use the history search of Gittyup correctly but if I try to find all commits, that altered a specific file, the search result only contains commits with one parent. e.g. commits with multiple parents like merge commits are not listed.
Is it possible to find those commits just like if I use "git log --simplify-merges" or "git log --first-parent"?

Research direction
Start at Gittyup's history search and compare its results for a specific file with git log --simplify-merges and git log --first-parent. Done means the search includes commits with one or multiple parents, including merge commits that altered the file.
