What
Code blocks and diffs now truncate each line at a character cap and append a dimmed [+N chars] marker showing how much was dropped, so a file with one enormous line no longer stalls rendering.
Details
The dropped count is tracked per line and the marker is re-applied after syntax highlighting, so colouring does not swallow it.
Evidence
truncatedChars
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
