Make the status panel show more useful info

Currently, the status panel shows a large logo of lazygit with copyright and help links. I think it would be more useful to show status information of the current git state.
Your thoughts
Things I'd like to know:
- If the current branch name does not fit inside the "small status" panel (top left), I'd like to see its full name in the "large status" panel (right-hand side).
- Is my installed version of lazygit out of date? Has there been a new release?
- What is the full path of this repository (locally on my filesystem)?
- What is the URI of the "upstream" repository?
