Compare: expand LFS files (from pointer to actual content)

Andreas75 4 years ago updated by Marc Strapetz 4 years ago 3

If I want to compare two binary files (or versions of the same file) which are in lfs I only can compare the pointer files. This is nice and useful just to see if there are differences but does not help me if I want to compare those file with an external tool.

Is it possible to implement a mechanism to get the original files first before sending the link to the external diff-tool? ... or is there something I have overseen?

Git-LFS: more prominent option to enable lock status display

Andreas75 4 years ago updated by Marc Strapetz 3 years ago 0

It took me a while to find this Low-Level Option "property pull.queryRemoteLfsLocks"

I think it would be a good idea to make it better reachable for "normal" users.

Icons: fully customizable

Fabio Oleari 4 years ago 0

It would be great if we have the possibility to fully customize the icon set, used by SmartGIT.
I mean, repositories icons, folder icons, files and relative state icons, etc. so that each user can use the icon set he likes.

Repositories: optionally hide current branch

Fabio Oleari 4 years ago 0

The "Repository" windows could be more "clean" with the option to hide branch next to each repository name.
Recently added repositories, that I've never visited, only comes with their name and I really love that.

Compare: auto-format text files, e.g. JSON, for easier comparing

tbarbaro 4 years ago updated by Thomas Singer 4 years ago 0

Currently SmartGit compares unformatted files correctly but it is hard to read. I would like the option to format the JSON content and compare them. That would allow you do compare JSON files the same way you compare source files.

Reverting changes is too slow/does not work with multiple clicks and a few seconds

Bugged 4 years ago updated by Marc Strapetz 3 years ago 1

If I click in these two reverse arrows (in the picture) in a small interval, SmarGit will ignore my second click/hit.

This is quite annoying when reversing half of the changes in a file.

Smargit should have a queue of revert requests and do not wait for the last revert request to be completed to accept (completed by) to accept the next one.

Log File: Add "reveal commit"

Michel Archambault 4 years ago updated 4 years ago 3

It would be nice to have the "reveal commit" feature available in the log window, but for the log file (selection) window:

  1. In "Working Tree" window, select a file in the "Files" pane.
  2. Right-click on this file and choose "Log" or select de file and click on the arrow on the "Log" button, then select "Log <filename>.
  3. The "Log for <filename>" window open.
  4. In the "Branches" pane, select a tags or another branch.
  5. Right-click on it.

==> There is no "Reveal commit" option... it would be nice. I understand that sometime a branch/tag may not be visible since the file doesn't exist for this specific branch/tag, but for others branch/tag it would be useful.

Renaming of local branches: UI improvements

B Sauvon 4 years ago updated by Marc Strapetz 4 years ago 0

UIX improvements when renaming a local branch:

  1. After renaming in the branches pane a local branch via context menu, it would be nice to have this branch still selected after renaming 
  2. When renaming a local branch, update all other local branches that tracked this local branch

log view - Show Avatar or User letters

Vero 4 years ago updated 4 years ago 1

In Log View would be useful to see the avatar or the username who made the commit
