Description

When viewing diffs with long lines (e.g. Tailwind styles), the line is truncated by gitu making them unhelpful. An option to make the lines wrap would be really useful.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by running gitu and viewing a diff containing long lines such as Tailwind styles, then trace the diff-rendering entry point. Done means an option allows long diff lines to wrap instead of being truncated.
