Allow to open multiple log windows for the same repository [SG-10350]
I often want to review commits from different long running branches in the same repository side by side.
Currently I have to use a different git client or clone repository multiple time to be able to do that.
Cherry-pick/revert: allow to select the file(s) to cherry-pick/revert
In the Log window's Files view, allow to cherry-pick/revert just the selected files. This also would solve the request https://smartgit.userecho.com/topics/221
Show tag labels in the Journal view in the same way as in the Log
Would be great to see the tag labels also in the Journal view, especially now when it looks exactly as the Log view. Add/Remove tags in the context menu here would be also great.
Full multi profile system
A full system that allows you to use smartgit with multiple profiles/workspaces and automatically manages different .gitconfig and smartgit configurations would be awesome. Git Kraken has a very nice support for this which could be used as an example.
Conflict Solver: show timestamp change for files
It is possible to add to the "Conlict Solver", the timestamp information of a change and file modification date ?
When I compare code, I dont' know wich file is more recent. And if we can have the chnage date of a line, you win ! :-D
Perforce like Time-lapse view or some "git log -LX,Y:myfile" view
Would be great to have a graphic view that at least retrieve all commits done on a certain line range of a file.
At best something like the Perforce Time-lapse view would be awesome: https://www.perforce.com/support/tutorial-video-library/video/using-time-lapse-view
Custom tools should be available in the Journal window
Custom tools could be made accessible on the Journal's context menu, this would avoid having to open the Log window to use them.
GitHub: Open Source Workflow
With GitHub I usually fork a project so I have the upstream project repository and my own repository. The upstream repository is read-only to me. I push to branches on my own repository and then I open a pull request from my repo to the upstream repository. Frequently I want to take the latest changes from the upstream repository and merge them into my current branch (or rebase). Currently I do all the fetching/merging/rebasing from the git command line because I don't know how to do it easily from SmartGit. I use SmartGit mainly for reviewing changes, handling conflicts and commits. If this workflow were easier in SmartGit I would not have to use any other tools. If there's an easy way to do this already, point me to the docs!
Diff: Make it possible to quickly compare file with another branch/commit
Sometimes it is useful to compare the file (modified, staged or non-modified) with its version in another branch or commit:
git diff my-feature1 src/file.copp
This could be added into the context menu when one clicks on a file
