Log: custom tools should work on Files (as in the main window)
Tools configured in the Preferences should work on the Log's File view in a similar way as in the main window
Add support for activating Python venv when switching between repositories
Many Python users work with virtual environments (venvs), typically one per project. For pre-commit hooks to run correctly, the appropriate venv must be active; otherwise, issues such as missing modules can occur (e.g., Pylint will report "module missing" errors if the wrong venv is being used).
A workaround that currently can be used is to launch SmartGit via scripts individually crafted per project to activate the respective venv, e.g.:
call C:\Users\username\PycharmProjects\project_name\.venv\Scripts\activate
C:\Apps\SmartGit\bin\smartgit.exe
However, this is not a general solution, since SmartGit allows users to switch between projects within the tool, which leads to the wrong venv being used again. It would be great if there was a way to have Smartgit automatically activate the correct venv of the respective project.
Ability to abort commit
Especially when pre-commit hooks are active, commits can take a couple seconds. Would be helpful to be able to abort the commit if you realize that you do not actually want to perform this exact commit while waiting for hook execution.
Standard Window: Customisable layout
The "Log Window" and "Working Tree Window" allow flexible customisation of the layout, so why not the "Standard Window"?
The left sidebar uses a lot of dead space, taking the entire height, and I can't see checked-out branches and stashes at the same time.
I want to give some of that dead space to the Changes view, ideally the full width of the window (I prefer side-by-side diffs).
Support signing commits with ssh keys
Given the recent slew of vulnerabilities in gpg (gpg.fail), al well as several years of recommendations by security experts (latacora, soatok), I'm currently phasing out gpg. In alternative to gpg, git also supports signing commits with SSH keys (gitlab, github).
It would be great if SmartGit could support SSH signatures.
Hi,
Documented the steps required:

Hope this helps

Optionally show all dates in UTC
Any chance of showing all the timestamps in UTC?
communicating with a team across the Atlantic, sometimes I'd like to talk about commits (a commit-hash is pretty darn specific) but having a correct universal way of stating a time would also be helpful.
Pull: optionally don't show confirmation dialog
When clicking the pull toolbar button while using the log graph startup window, it opens up another window requiring another click to do the pull. It would be nice to have a dedicated pull button that only requires one click.
