Feature Description

It would be very nice if gitea could display commit messages as Markdown.

This seems already be the case for PR, so I suppose it is not too complicated to be applied to commit message?

I guess in the PR timeline, and when viewing a specific file at a given commit?

hello,
sorry for late reply!

Perhaps my suggestion was wrong formulated. What I would like to have, is to be able to got my commit message not displayed as raw text, but the as MarkDown.
So I could add some text emphasis (like bold, etc.).

I don't know if Gitea already has such a feature?

Not yet. But once you review git message in other clients, like editors, git shell, they will not be rendered?

Yes, I know.
Markdown rendering will not be available everywhere, but it would be kind if Gitea could do it ;)

Then we need an option to enable/disable that.

This make sense to me, and perhaps per default it should be deactivated.
