I've gotten the Interactive Rebase working, but it doesn't work the same way as the Journal.  It would be better if the Journal could just be extended to show as many commits as needed.

Also it seems to not handle line endings the same as the Journal did?  On Windows my Index Editor is totally red from line ending differences until I Ignore Whitespace

Hmm that doesn't work for me in 17.1 preview 9 #11076, installed: #11073

So there's no way to squash commits further back in history than 10?

"If you never pushed anything out, just re-tag it. Use "-f" to replace the old one. And you’re done."

I want to be able to do this in the GUI. Also to edit the annotation, etc.

SmartGit already makes it easy to move tags around to different commits by dragging them, so I don't think there's any justification for intentionally making other things more difficult than they need to be.

Hmm, that doesn't work for me.

However, if I edit smartgit.properties

and add

smartgit.compare.maximumFileSize=10000000

it seems to work

Yes, you have to delete it and re-create it, but it would be nice if SmartGit made it more like editing a commit or renaming a branch.

It would be nice if the tag annotation were shown in the Details box under the tag name

> "So I increased the size limit in the preferences file,"

How do you do that exactly?

Also, this should not be in the "Praises" section, since it's a feature request.

I understand that it doesn't make logical sense to open a file from the history, since it could no longer exist or exist in a different place in the present, which is why I suggested a column in the main window of the latest commit date that includes that file, so we can sort by that, and easily select the most recently-edited files and drag to IDE or right-click and open, etc.
