How to configure "Log Selected" in SourceTree preferences?

[Pulkit Singhal]

Is it possible to override how the "Log Selected" feature in SourceTree operates by configuring it somewhere in the preferences?

My motivation is that I would like my sourcetree's "Log Selected" feature to use the `--follow` flag and even list the history before any file renames occured.

I don't think you can change the behavior of the Log Selected option, but you should be able to create a custom action that uses the --follow option.

sorry that i had to use a snapshot to get my point across, apparently i used "inappropriate language or spam"

You need to include $REPO as well, $FILE only includes the path within the repository.

This worked for me when I tested it right now

Btw, the "inappropriate language or spam" is a known issue and it is being worked on, see https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Feedback-Forum-articles/Known-issue-HTML-markup-errors/ba-p/625791
