We can copy branch name but not a repository name (if that feature exists, I could not find it).  Please have Ctrl+c copy the highlighted repo name.

Working with many repos I regularly need to message someone with a repository name and branch name; copying the branch name works nicely but must type the repo name.

Support for the new "partial clone" feature of Git, as described at:

https://git-scm.com/docs/partial-clone

For SmartGit, this especially means to fetch missing blobs on-demand (status, Log display, ...).

I'm doing embedded development, and my main repository has lots of enormous submodules (Linux, U-Boot, Buildroot). Even worse, I'm working on a networked drive. The results: updates sometimes take a minute or more.

I'd like to have a project-level option to ignore submodule contents. When necessary, I can open the submodules separately and update them that way, but most of the time I won't need to make submodule changes.

For example, I just had went back on history where some directories were not on `.gitgnore`:

But now I just cannot continue rebasing because Smartgit `Continue` rebase button is making/keeps opening the `Commit` dialog.

Not so far ago, Smartgit would be smart and just ask whether I would like to commit the unstaged files, but now it just becomes an insane/senseless application, version: 20.1.1 #15128

The only for me to get out of this nonsenseless is to open the command line and directly run `git rebase --continue`

Every time I would like to smash some commit, remove or move it up and down, I have to use the command line with the command `git rebase -i --preserve-merges HEAD~n` because the SmartGit interface does not allow to rebase things before merge commits:

Please add a way to quickly fast-forward merge multiple branches.  

In the "branches" view, if I have multiple branches selected, I would like to be able to right click -> fast-forward merge.  

If I right click on "local branches", "origin", or similar, I would like to be able to fast-forward merge them all.

My reason for this is when I like to keep a separate clone that doesn't have any of my local changes in it.  I use this to do merging operations that my have conflicts with my current working tree.  Or to have a clean copy to run comparisons with.  However, this gets out of sync with the upstream frequently since I'm not active in it.  

When opening a repository (or an worktree), SmartGit should detect all related worktrees and display them as separate "repositories" in the Repositories view. UI might be similar as for submodules.

When I compare two text files that SmartGit detects as binary there is the option Force Text (top right above the file compare subpanel) in the main SmartGit window.

When I double click on the file I get the differences between the two files but there is no option to Force Text. Is it possible to add the Force Text action in the main File Compare window?

In the graph window, the option to 'Sort by Time' will use the commit date/time.  It would handy to be able to specify the author date/time as well when comparing two branches to identify which commits are shared and which have not been merged.
