Compare with Working Tree - Integrate: allows to integrate ahead and behind feature branch without requiring to push first - Syntax coloring: - support for Groovy/Gradle scripts Fixed Bugs ---------- - startup: internal error related to settings - Blame: not readable in dark theme - Branches: remote branches did not show up for git config "smartgit.refLimit.remoteBranch[Include|Exclude]RegEx" configured empty - Edit Commit Message: for the HEAD commit, the message did not ended with a newline like for non-HEAD commits - Edit Ignore File: showed only subset of all available ignore files - Refresh: - false-positive "slow clean filters" warning - upper/lower case file name problems with .gitattributes (LFS) - possible internal error related to recursive definition of symrefs - Log: - Subdirectory Log: fails with "The specified path does not exist in the repository" - Standard window: - Changes view: changing font/size in preferences did not trigger redraw - Rebase Interactive: did not warn about modifying history - Linux: - selected tab is hardly noticable for dark system theme - Working Tree window: - Show Changes did nothing on partly staged files - macOS: - macOS 11, tables: scrollbar might not match table content https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=575259 Other Noteworthy Changes ------------------------ - Built-in SSH client: support for "--" parameter used by Git-LFS - Refresh: more efficient processing of filters (e.g. LFS) - Log: - Commit Details: limit amount of displayed "merged to branches" to prevent performance problems and internal error for too long, wrapped lines - Graph: - use gray as color for the signed symbol - use subtle indicator for multi-line commit messages a tooltip shows more text for truncated messages - added Copy Name to context menu of ref - show triangle by default in refs to indicate HEAD ref (use log.graph.drawHeadRefWithTriangle to disable) - Refresh: for partial clones, avoid fetching root commits - drag and drop: don't starts scrolling too quickly - Standard window: - added LLP standard.filter.showPermanently to show the filter input field permanently - shows banner in Graph view if there are local changes - Start feature: offer "develop" as main ref, if present - Bug/crash report: if build is too old, asks to upgrade and don't send - updated the bundled JRE to 11.0.13 -

Preferences: - added page for important options of the user's git config, e.g., user.name/user.email - Standard window: - Copy path/name on local directory (context menu) - Edit git config for repository and user - Ignore on local directory (context menu) - Integrate (Feature): streamlined workflow - immediately integrates main branch (and skips tracked branch) if the local branch is a complete rewrite of its remote branch - if Integrate is a no-op, tell the user to Push the branch to finally become able to Finish it - Pull defaults to Fetch if the branch is a rewrite of its remote branch Fixed Bugs ---------- - assertion starting SmartGit with previous settings - git config writing: - empty values in config files were not preserved - empty sections should not be created, but kept if existing - Tag grouping: might have written empty "taggrouping" section to config - Graph: - aborting a drag and drop (e.g. with Esc) over a link opened this link - Refresh: possible internal error opening bare repository containing .git directory - Standard window: - Clone: - failed silently if, e.g. the Git-LFS processing caused errors - if a clone in a different tab finishs, the active cloning card also became hidden - internal error cloning into a directory which was open as repository already - Discard: internal error invoking on selection with files and submodules - Local Changes Files: conflict file showed up in Working Tree and Index lists - Pull: showed "bas revision 'HEAD'" if repository was empty - Working Tree window: - Journal, Edit Message: actually invoked Add Tag Other Noteworthy Changes ------------------------ - Add Branch/Tag: use HEAD if invoked with focus in Branches view - Clone: shows progress for "Filtering content" phase - Commit and other operations: don't check for user.name/user.email - Conflict Solver (external): set low-level property externalConflictSolver.waitForProcess to false to wait until the command has finished before showing the resolve-dialog - Graph: improved auto-scrolling for drag and drop, especially with respect to when to start scrolling - Preferences: - User interface: option to load previously open repositories in "Preferred window" or the previously used window - Repository Settings: removed "Remember as default" option (because of the possibility to edit the defaults in the preferences) - Setup wizard: don't ask for user.name/user.email if ~/.gitconfig exists, but can't be read, or if it contains includes - SSH fingerprint confirmation dialog: show as Base64 encoded SHA-256 (as this is the information published by, e.g., GitHub) set low-level property ssh.fingerprint.sha256 to false to see the old MD5-hex hash - Standard window: - My History, All Branches + Tags: clicking a ref should scroll it into view if already selected, but not visible - Working Tree window: - Compare: invoking on an unchanged file always compares with working tree file (to be editable), not with index SmartGit 22.1 Preview 2 (2021-11-26) ==================================== Fixed Bugs ---------- - Log window: - Graph: 'origin=branch' ref pair shows up with wrong (gray) color if only remote branch is selected in Branches view - Refresh: - Graph: - possible internal error - possible "Unexpected type 'tag' instead of 'commit'" in combination with low-level property core.tags.loadDetails=false - "Pack index for ... does not exist" error - Syntax: - JavaScript/TypeScript: problem with `strings` - PHP: end of code section not detected correctly - Standard window: - Graph: - Filter: after revealing old node, preserve node in graph until a different branch or commit is selected - dragging of commits did not work - may unexpectedly reset selection back to older state Other Noteworthy Changes ------------------------ - Preferences: added option to make the Standard window the "preferred" window, no need for a low-level property any more - added low-level property repositories.reopenUsingDefaultMode to always open the repositories that were open on exit in the "preferred" window - added experimental low-level property log.graph.highlightSelectionColor to configure a color that is used to highlight the parent connector - Standard window: - added information to the My History and All Branches + Tags views - added Move or Rename SmartGit 22.1 Preview 1 (2021-11-22) ==================================== New Features, Improvements -------------------------- - Graph view: - highlights the selected commit's first-parent history in bold (on HiDPI screens, for LoDPI screens set the low-level property log.graph.highlightStrongAtDpiScaling to 1) https://smartgit.userecho.com/en/communities/1/topics/295- - Cherry Pick, Revert: support "Continue" Fixed Bugs ---------- - Changes view: if one image is refreshed, zoom was reset for that image only but not the other - File Log: possible incorrect mapping of refs to commits for skipped merges - Refresh: - certain cherry-picking and reverting states were not detected - a symlink to a file with non-ASCII characters in the name showed up as always modified - Linux: autohiding scrollbar in Graph caused problems, replaced by separate slider - Windows: bundled JRE was not detected under very special conditions Other Noteworthy Changes ------------------------ - Commits view: - for 2 selected commits shows the commit details for both commits - for >2 selected commits shows the number of the selected commits - Graph view: - more ref colors are available - used color is based on ref name (so is reproducible even on different machines) - in standard window and Log window with Default Coloring the commit dots use the branch color - unpushed commits are shown using a filled dot - improved filter responsiveness, especially for many matching commits - Standard window: - drag and drop is more strict about dragging a ref or commit (similar to the context menu) - less intrusive filter input fields for graph and file tables - Local Changes: the filter only operates on the Working Tree files, not on the Index files, same for the selected Directory - show separate page for a cloning repository - if there are local changes, Pull will be rejected completely (to prevent less easy to understand states) - Preferences: - for the Standard window the features can be limited to not overwhelm Git newbies - made more clear which Commands option influences what window - UI page: removed "Remember Log/Working tree" option because it was obsolete now with repositories remembered in what window they were opened - Extensions for syntax coloring: show modified (compared to default) with ability to reset to default - Search Repositories: - clear found repository list on new manual search - made found repositories list sortable - UI: - remember which repository was opened in what window type (and the order and current repository for the standard window) - split "Modify or Split Commit" into 2 separate commands - unified all graph context menus to have similar, more logic grouping of commands - use larger font in some dialogs - simpler icon (on macOS 11/12 better matching the others) SmartGit 22.1 Preview 0 (2021-10-20) ==================================== New Features, Improvements -------------------------- - Standard window: - targets non-tech users or simple workflows (e.g. single or feature branches) - more restricted workflows than in other windows to prevent common pitfalls - rather "there is just one way to do something" than "you can do something anytime" - support for single-remote (central) repositories only - strict separation between working tree (Local Changes) and graph (History) with smart switching between both - modes for operations on local branches (My History), checkout/search other branches/tags (All Branches + Tags), see stash details (Stashes) or find historic commits (Reflog) - reveal refs on single-click, in My History a delayed second click reveals remote/tracked branch - repositories open in tabs - Changes view: support for diff filter textconv - Modify or Split Commit: Modify and Modify All have been unified; there is a Continue button to get the old Modify behavior - Submodule Add: option to define at which branch to add the submodule Fixed Bugs ---------- - Branches view: - pull request nodes did not preserve selection on refresh - Changes view: - changes to .gitattributes did not trigger a refresh - may interfere/block too much with main operations - Clone: - false-positive detection of local URLs - created unexpected "develop" branch if ".gitflow" file was present - GitHub/others: fetching invalid pull request may fail with "conflicting" error - Log: - Files/Changes view: file content for specific unicode file names may not be loaded/found - Files: selecting the next file did not work in all conditions - Pull: "Remember as default" did not work for Rebase option if .git/config contained "branch.autosetuprebase" - Refresh: - no proper refreshing after specific case-change-only renames - internal error if .git/index (or commit tree) contains path "." - possible internal error if reading .git/config failed - .gitignore/.gitattributes: first line misinterpreted if file was encoded with UTF8 with BOM - various commands: possible false-positive "commit already pushed warning" for detached HEADs - layout of some windows was not always remembered/restored correctly - macOS: failed to launch from path with umlauts Other Noteworthy Changes ------------------------ - Branches view (Log, Working Tree windows): - show ahead/behind commits at right side - Commit: - select Index file change if commit message input field receives focus - context menu item to rewrap message - Log: - Graph: - ref labels use configured colors - HEAD history is shown with bold lines - pushable commits are shown with bold dots - added low-level properties "log.graph.head.line.bold" and "log.graph.head.line.constantColor" to tweak the look of the HEAD history lines - uses ref-name-based coloring instead of a possible changing color for up to 6 refs - for selected "Show Only Selected Branches" and unselected "Include Tracked Remote Branches" still show the remote/tracked ref if it is at the same commit - File log: - removed (almost) nonsensical commands - own toolbar configuration - no switchable perspectives any more - Files: optionally shows unchanged directories - Commit details: - when diffing commits, show details about selected commits (so the user not just blindly compares 2 hashes), including the merge base - Discard is only available if Working Tree node is selected - perspective specific toolbar layouts - Merge: - added squash merge, so the squash-merge workflow is more consistent with command line Git - merging from a commit uses a ref on the commit only if it is unambiguous - Push To: is now applicable on "Other" refs, too - Refresh: - faster refresh if basic state in case of many refs - does not display repository-related notifications when opening worktree repositories - GitHub/GitLab: improved error message in case of missing API token - GUI: - new more consistent icon set - in several controls: own platform-indepdenent double-click/word selection handling - autoupdate switched to https - replaced JGit with own code - git config: support for includeif - support for .mailmap - support for git replace - Search Repositories: - add repositories at same (best matching) group as Add Repository would do - imported repositories get selected in Repositories view - clear repository list on new manual search - list of found repositories is sortable with path and selected - Low level properties: - renamed "stash.*" to "bitbucketServer.*" - renamed "bitbucket.*" to "bitbucketCloud.*" - Modify or Split Commit: Modify and Modify All have been unified; there is a Continue button to get the old Modify behavior - Windows: use "Windows-ROOT" trust store - updated SWT to v4948r8 with support for dark theme on Windows 11
