Vscode-gitlens: Add the option to show heatmap when the blame sidebar is collapsed

[dkniffin]

• GitLens Version: 5.5.0
• VSCode Version: 1.16.1
• OS Version: Mac OSX 10.12.3

I really like the heatmap functionality provided by this extension, but I'd like to see it without all the extra info that shows up when the blame sidebar is open

[eamodio]

So you'd want to see the heatmap visible all the time? Or just on a toggle -- like the normal blame, but without the extra info?

I think a toggle would be good. I'd probably leave it on all the time, but I could see others not wanting it.

[eamodio]

@dkniffin So you'd want to be able to toggle the heatmap by itself, but still have access to toggle the blame annotations too right? I ask because today you could configure the blame annotations to not have a message and just the heatmap (but of course then you can't turn on the messages without editing the config).

[dkniffin]

Ideally, yeah, that's how I'd like it. Removing the messages is a good workaround though.

Added in 7.2

@eamodio I've installed 7.2, but I don't see gitlens.toggleFileHeatmap to toggle the heatmap annotations on and off. Below are all the settings i can see related to heatmap:

[eamodio]

@cateyes99 gitlens.toggleFileHeatmap is a command that can be executed via the command palette --
Toggle File Heatmap Annotations, or by adding a custom keyboard shortcut like:

    {
        "key": "alt+m",
        "command": "gitlens.toggleFileHeatmap",
        "when": "editorTextFocus && gitlens:activeIsBlameable"
    },

Hope that helps.
