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.
Notify when TODO items are found in code
I'd like for a notification to pop up when committing code that has TODO comments in it. IntelliJ's git plug-in does this. It looks through all the code you're about to commit and if it sees any TODO comments, it says something like "You've got outstanding TODO items, are you sure you want to commit this code?" and it lists the file name, line number, and the contents of the TODO note.
The feature can be disabled if it bothers the user, but I really like having it as a reminder.
Have an option to checkout branch automatically after fetching that branch using "Fetch More..."
I've fallen victim multiple times fetching a branch from my remote repository (right click origin > "Fetch More") and committing to what I think was the branch I just fetched. In reality, I forgot to double click the branch after fetching it which to me seems redundant. It'd be nice to have a checkbox with a default option of "checkout after fetching branch"
Log window should be the main window
Log window should be the main window.
The current unstaged and changed files should be visible in the log view.
It should be possible to stage/unstage/commit files in the log view.
Integration with SublimeText
It would be nice to synchronize bidirectionally SublimeText projects with SmartGit repos. If I have project in Sublime, I'd like to see it as repo (if git initialized) and if I have repository in SmartGit I'd like to quickly switch between project based on repos in Sublime.
Order files by how much changes were made.
would be nice to have identifier how many lines of code changed in file
