Description
gitg hangs when displaying a big commit.
Testcase: https://github.com/endlessm/chromium-browser
Just go back to the start of the master branch and try to display any of the "import chromium tarball" commits. gitg will hang and mutter will open a dialog prompting the user to kill it.
It's probably doing sync I/O on the UI thread.
