Often I want to share my guthub branch with a co-worker.  At the moment I have to open github and find the branch, then copy the url.  Would be nice to have a content menu on the remote -> branch "Copy github url" 

Currently, this small dialog doesn't allow full keyboard searching -- it only searches the first character.  In a repo with a lot of "sub-directory" branches (e.g. "feature/xxx/yyy") and the list is long, trying to find a branch is pain.

Currently, I have to go to the command line and do `git rebase -i HEAD~3`, then this appears:

pick f7f3f6d changed my name a bit
pick 310154e updated README formatting and added blame
pick a5f4a0d added cat-file

# Rebase 710f0f8..a5f4a0d onto 710f0f8
#
# Commands:
#  p, pick = use commit
#  r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message
#  e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending
#  s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit
#  f, fixup = like "squash", but discard this commit's log message
#  x, exec = run command (the rest of the line) using shell
#
# These lines can be re-ordered; they are executed from top to bottom.
#
# If you remove a line here THAT COMMIT WILL BE LOST.
#
# However, if you remove everything, the rebase will be aborted.
#
# Note that empty commits are commented out

So, if I would like to edit some commit contents, I would change it to:

pick f7f3f6d changed my name a bit
pick 310154e updated README formatting and added blame
edit a5f4a0d added cat-file

Then, git would use commit, but stop for amending. Allowing me to freely edit the git history, amending changes the the picked commit, or adding new commits after it. Once I am done with it, I can do `git rebase --continue` and git would rewrite the history with the new updates.

The current SmartGit interface for Iterative Rebase only allows-me to edit the commit message, it cannot edit like `use commit, but stop for amending`.

Sorry if a feature like this already exists, but I haven't seen it yet.

In the git command line, if there is an untracked directory, the command git status only displays the name of the directory, but not its contents. This is very practical and I would love to see an option in SmartGit's Files view to get this.

Use case: Say you have a project that contains a large temporary directory (build artifacts, script output). Normally you would exclude this directory via .gitignore. However during development it may become necessary to do a quick backup of that directory, usually by renaming it and letting the project regenerate it. Now your renamed version does not exist in gitingore, so now there exists a directory with hundreds of files/subdirectories that will be deleted soon, but for the time being clogs up the Files view.

Having the option to show untracked directories as single directories instead of a huge number of files would be very helpful here. The command line client does it this way, so I think SmartGit at least should offer the option.

In the Log Graph, if a particular commit (A) has been reverted in a future commit (B), add some indicator on commit A to highlight this status.

Ways to highlight include italicizing the text, graying out (graying out is being used for merge-commits), strike-through, different color, different font, smaller font size, etc.  (I vote for strike-through).

Benefits: When reading a graph from bottom to top, it would be helpful to tell the user that this particular commit has been reverted.  This allows the user to get even more meaningful data from the log. 
I find it particularly useful when writing Release Notes, or to avoid making quick assumptions that a particular feature has been implemented just because a commit for it exists.

Potential implementation:  It may be taxing to the CPU to scan the entire repository, so we could limit it to just visible commits (branches/refs that are checked).

I often find myself copying the current draft commit message (in case something goes wrong), close the commit window, open the log for one of the files I'm about to commit and then re-open the commit window.

It would be nice to be able to open the log window for one of the files I'm about to commit from the commit window directly.

Since v18.1 : "The default log coloring now uses adedicated color for each selected refs (unless there are too much)"

This is stunning when having 4-5 branches checked, it really helps the log readability !
But I saw also that if I check the tags then they are counted as selected refs, and the log switch to 2 colors (white for current branch and purple for other branches).

May this count be done only on branches and not tags ?

SmartGit currently creates a `.smartgit/` folder in the user's home directory on Linux. Most programs don't create a folder in the user's Home directory anymore and instead use the Freedesktop `$XDG` standard found here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html.

Using this standard:

• `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` – says "configuration files" go to `$HOME/.config/`
• `$XDG_DATA_HOME` – says "data files" go to `$HOME/.local/share/`
• `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` – says "temporal/non-essential files" go to `$HOME/.cache/`

This is just a request to consider using this standard. It makes a lot of sense; it is easy for the user to understand, makes it easier to backup/locate/restore/manage/clear user's data, and creates less clutter in the user's home directory.

Thanks in advance...and thanks so much for everyone's hard work on this program – it's amazing!

Selecting "View > Only Index" or "View > Only Working Tree" adds a segmented control in the interface, but when you select "View > Mixed" (or not select the first two options at all), no control is present in the interface.

It would be awesome if all 3 of them would be in the interface like "Mixed | Index | Working Tree" so you can easily switch between them any time.
