ANSI control characters include cursor positioning, so in theory you could implement marquee messages. The problem would be introducing delay. I don't recall if you can do that using ANSI. You can emulate it by doing repeated cursor repositioning, but that would be rendered so quickly that the commit message would have to be enormous to include any appreciable delay.
