From the screenshots provided, it seems that the description is currently being cut off for some reason. This area should adjust its height automatically based on the text and shouldn’t have a fixed height set.

@andrewgolovanov we set a line-clamp-3 here as well, since max characters can be 1024, it would be spread to almost the bottom of the page. what do you think?

@shaurya-harness In that case, I’d reduce the maximum number of characters allowed in the description. We could follow GitHub’s example. Here’s what it looks like when I fill in the repository description with the maximum number of characters:

okay, will need a backend change for this, I'll mention in our PIPE sync today

@andrewgolovanov just had a word with @bradrydzewski , we can't reduce the max chars support at backend as some of our old customers might have long descriptions. we should be looking at truncating to a few lines, earlier it used to be line-clamp-3, we can change that to 8 maybe for parity with github?

Alright, no problem. In that case, yes, we can limit it to 8 lines, like on GitHub. In the future, we could consider adding a Tooltip that appears when hovering over the description, allowing users to see the full text. But for now, that’s just a rough idea - I plan to discuss it with the design team soon.

@andrewgolovanov I have also added full width for the repo-summary page as per the figma - https://www.figma.com/design/Lu5QJyq9tQEjHMeQmQhbAd/Gitness-Product-Design---Stage-2?node-id=5318-41915&node-type=canvas&t=kwQAdKoUWXZT5HPm-0
