File compare: charset file encoding indication
As a user I wish I could see the guessed charset encoding of each file in the File Compare tool of Smartgit. And eventually in the Conflict Solver tool of Smartgit.
Syntax Highlighting: support for Kotlin
Please add support for Kotlin syntax highlighting.
Support Git Virtual File System (GVFS)
Git Virtual File System was created by Microsoft in order to house the entirety of Windows source code history in a single repository.
Please consider adding support to SmartGit.
Microsoft has validated or committed to supporting some other tools already, such as SourceTree, Tower, and Git for Windows.
Obviously this is still in early stages, but that makes it a great time to enter this space.
Option to fix line endings that are preventing a commit.
There is nothing more frustrating than having someone on your team screw up line endings. While obviously not a long-term solution to the problem, it would be nice if SmartGit could recognize a line ending error message from Git and provide an option to automatically fix the files in question.
Add a copy short ID contextual menu entry
In both the journal and log commits views, in the contextual menu a "Copy ID" option is present. This will copy the full SHA1.
I'd like to have an option to copy the short git ID, the same that is displayed in the ID column (only 8 characters)
Multi-repository Support: Commit
When you have a project with many modules (10+) in separate repositories (modularity at all costs), it's hard to manage them together. There's already a topic about multi push / sync (https://smartgit.userecho.com/topics/219-multiple-push-sync/), what I'm missing beyond those, is committing together.
Let's say you're working on a bigger feature that affects 50% of your repos. Staging the changes individually in each repo is unavoidable I think, but when you're finished with it, you need to commit them one-by-one. Even though your commit message will be the same for all (usually).
Here, an enhanced commit window (where all staged changes for the selected repos could be listed, groupped by the repos) would be very useful, and you would need do only a single commit, with the same commit message for all, in one step. Any chance for such feature?
Highlight group name of opened repository
The names of open repositories in the repositories pane are bold. It would be nice to bold (or otherwise highlight) the group names of opened repositories as well, especially when the group is collapsed; that would make it easier to find the group with the opened repositories.
Undo/Redo for commits
Undo e.g.:
- Plain commit
- Amend commit
- Changing branch (ref pointer)
- Rebase/Merge
- ... what else?
Searching commits: show all commits and highlight the matching commits
When searching for a specific commit, only the matching commits are shown. With this option you will still see the complete commit history with the matching commits highlighted
Support for current hg (4.0+)
Mercurial has moved on to a new major version, 4.0. SmartGit needs to support this version, too.
