Cancel a request (e.g. fetch) when not connected to VPN

Mirko 3 years ago updated 3 years ago 2

When not connected to a VPN where my repo is, SmartGit just hangs in "Fetching..." for 2 minutes and I must force exit it if I don't want to wait for it to show me a "Command failed" popup with message "Command Fetch failed!" message. Event when I connect to the VPN in meantime it still continues to hang. Because of it I must take care that I am connected to the VPN before I do some action related to a remote repository.

So, the potential resolution will be to automatically break the request or to have an option to cancel it (with similar warning like it is on force exit attempt)

When viewing logs, add a way to highlight search results rather than filtering the list

aatwo 3 years ago 0

When viewing logs, add a way to highlight entries rather than filter the list. This will make it much easier to find a commit in the list and examine it relative to other commits and branchs.


Benefits:

  • You can easily locate a commit and see other changes that happened before and after it.
  • You can more easily find two commits and examine the changes that occured between them.
  • You can look at a commit and quickly determine where is lies within the history of the branch(s).

Sort Tags in folders

Philippe 3 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 3 years ago 2

For each release of our SW (every 6 months), we create tags for the version Alpha0..n, Beta0..n, ReleaseCandidate0..n

This creates a lot of tags and what makes the search unpleasant in the "Branches" window. It would be nice if we could create folders to gathers all tags belonging to one SW release.

push again

steffen roeber 3 years ago 0

I'm using smartgit behin a company proxy. This proxy has sometimes connection issues like

 Commit: unable to access 'https://github.com/...': Received HTTP code 407 from proxy after CONNECT

Would it be possible to have kind of a 'auto repeat until success' feature für push(pull commands?

Two line stash list

Wlf 3 years ago 0

With the stash prefix including the date and time, the single line stash list format doesn't allow much room for reading the note with the stash. 

Please consider an optional 2 line stash list, with the stash comment on the 2nd line.

Branches view: Auto-scroll-to-checked-out-branch is frustrating

Joshua 3 years ago updated 10 months ago 3

I work with multiple repositories where I switch between them multiple times a day. Typically the first thing I want to do when switching to a repository is to check out a particular branch on it. So I usually start scrolling/drilling-into branches to find what I'm looking for. But SmartGit has multiple background tasks it runs when switching to a repository, and after each task completes, it auto-scrolls the branches list make the currently-checked-out branch be at the top of the list.

This gets very frustrating as this is my typical workflow:

1. I open a repository

2. I scroll branches to try to find one

3. SmartGit finishes a task ("Refreshing...") and auto-scrolls branches list

4. I scroll again to try to find one

5. SmartGit finishes another task ("Initializing Subtree-Cache...") and auto-scrolls branches list again.

6. Now it seems done with background tasks and I can scroll again.

It would be great if it only auto-scrolls to the selected branch once, immediately upon opening a repository, and not again multiple times as background tasks complete.

Windows explorer context menu "SmartGit log" command

Davide F 3 years ago updated 4 weeks ago 1

Hi

I know there are several tools to customize the Windows explorer context menu. 

The command I would need is "smartgitc.exe --log C:\path\to\repository\path\to\file", as documented in the SG help.

However, it would be very nice if, during the installation, SmartGit would allow to add this command by itself, therefore without the need of an external and possibly unsafe program (which by the way I cannot install so easily because I don't have admin rights in my company and I have to justify the need of a "not authorized" tool).

Thanks in advance.
