Hi, thanks for this great tool! Hyperlinks are really useful, it would be nice to have them working when using --name-only with git diff and git log.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with git diff --name-only and git log --name-only, then trace how delta currently adds hyperlinks to other Git output. The work is done when file paths in both name-only modes receive the expected hyperlinks without regressing existing output.
