This is no support platform! To report bugs or request support, please contact us directly. If in doubt ask us.
First search for a similar request and add your votes or comments there.
Take the time to describe your request as precisely as possible, so users will understand what you want. Please note that we appreciate your time and input, but we don't give any guarantees that a certain feature will be implemented. Usually, a minimum requirement is a sufficient number of votes. Hence, please don't comment like "when will this be implemented", but vote instead.

Push: add support for "git push refs/for/master"
We use Gerrit for code review, and integration with smartgit could be better.
Gerrit wants commits ready for review to be pushed to special branches like refs/for/master etc.
SmartGit has no sort of special support for those branches or other Gerrit features, so it's currently more convenient to use the "git-review" command instead of the GUI.
Tutorials about using SmartGit and explaining repositories
I wish I could understand more about different concepts of github instead of continuously calling my boss!
Log: Copy Relative Path when multiple files selected
In the Log window when you select multiple files in the files tab, you can't use Copy Relative Path. You can use it only when one file selected.
When commit, update headers
when commit add (if is the first commit of file) or update a header on files with user details (who create the files, who update the files, the time and date, etc) sorry for my bad english
Provide key binding for opening Log for entire repo
I often want to open the Log for the entire repo, very rarely for a specific file. So I want a keyboard binding (say Ctrl-Shift-L) that opens the Log for the repo. I'm tired of switching to the Repositories view and pressing Ctrl-L
User tools on the popup menus
Provide a mechanism where the user could add their own actions in the list of actions on some popup menu.
Take this popup for example:
Open and Open File will both invoke the program associated with the file extension. I do not always want to open the full IDE for a file but simply edit (UltraEdit) or browse (V Fileviewer) or Zip or copy the file someplace else.
It would be nice to be able to add actions to the popup list.
In the Preferences, section "Tools" you can already configure tools. Isn't this what you are looking for?
Simplify explanation of Split-feature
I suggest to simplify the message on this screen.
Here is a suggested example:
The splitting of commit ... still is in progress, but not all changes of this commit have been applied.
Do you want to apply the rest into index or stop splitting?
Buttons:
- Apply
- Stop
- Cancel
Check Out: optionally fetch first
Check Out has the wonderful feature of offering Fast-Forward Merge if there are remote commits available. But if SmartGit hasn't fetched for awhile, checking out a branch won't know to avail you of that offer.
An even more common scenario (for me) is pushing a feature branch, using a merge request in GitLab to merge it to a CI branch, and then checking out the CI branch. You've just merged it, so there are definitely changes on the CI branch to merge into the local copy.
These cases would both be solved if Check Out did a Fetch first, just like Pull does.
