Make SmartGit use the Freedesktop XDG standard

x80486 6 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 6 years ago 1

SmartGit currently creates a `.smartgit/` folder in the user's home directory on Linux. Most programs don't create a folder in the user's Home directory anymore and instead use the Freedesktop `$XDG` standard found here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html.


Using this standard:

  • `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` – says "configuration files" go to `$HOME/.config/`
  • `$XDG_DATA_HOME` – says "data files" go to `$HOME/.local/share/`
  • `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` – says "temporal/non-essential files" go to `$HOME/.cache/`

This is just a request to consider using this standard. It makes a lot of sense; it is easy for the user to understand, makes it easier to backup/locate/restore/manage/clear user's data, and creates less clutter in the user's home directory.


Thanks in advance...and thanks so much for everyone's hard work on this program – it's amazing!

Add "View > Mixed" in the interface

Iulian Onofrei 6 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 5 years ago 7

Selecting "View > Only Index" or "View > Only Working Tree" adds a segmented control in the interface, but when you select "View > Mixed" (or not select the first two options at all), no control is present in the interface.


It would be awesome if all 3 of them would be in the interface like "Mixed | Index | Working Tree" so you can easily switch between them any time.

Analytics info between two commits

张辞武 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 2

Now I can see file diff when chose two commits in log interface

I'd request a feature that shows analytics info about the diff between the commits

For now I think add a right menu item "show diff analytics" and popup a new window would be fine


Infos can be shown:


- count of added files
- count of deleted files
- count of modified files

- count of added lines
- count of deleted lines
- count of modified lines


- every person's contribute between two commits(commit count, modified file count, line count)

Commit: optionally prevent "Commit & Push" a merge commit for certain repositories

Thomas Singer 6 years ago 0

Request by a user:

If in some projects users merge, get conflicts, solve and commit & push without further tests, it might help a little bit if the "Commit & Push" button would not be enabled while trying to commit in the merging/rebasing state. This option should be project based and triggered by a file that can be committed to the repository.

Support Mercurial 4.7

Sergey Shevchenko 6 years ago 0

Please add support for the latest Mercurial version! My org mandates using our own modified Mercurial clone branched off of 4.7, so I can't go to 4.5, which SmartGit 18.1 supports :(

Use Watchman to speed up Git by orders on magnitude

Scott Richmond 6 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 6 years ago 1

Newer versions of git support Watchman (https://github.com/facebook/watchman), which vastly improves the speed of local Git background operations. Would be awesome if SmartGit dealt with setting it up for repos.

Pull with regular intervals

Roland Bengtsson 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 1

If there is several repos that are dependent of each other it is easy to forget pull to keep all uptodate.


I suggest an option to turn on AutoPull for defined intervals per repository.

This way you can be sure to always have the latest

Filter Files: support for Ctrl + Backspace

Greg 6 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 6 years ago 1

"Filter Files" textbox doesn't support a simple, standard shortcut "Ctrl + Backspace" for a whole word deletion. It's a small inconvenience but a bit frustrating.

In other places, like "Find Action" dialog I can see the above shortcut is supported.
