Description

**Mood:** 😊
**Category:** General

Need a "git history" view. There's a Changes view but no git log. Add a way to browse commit history on the side — possibly integrated into the Changes view rather than standalone.

Research direction

Start by examining the existing Changes view, since the issue suggests integrating commit history there rather than adding a standalone screen. Determine how the app could expose a browsable git log alongside changes; done means users can open the view and browse commit history from the side.
