It would be great to make it possible for repository group icons to be either with customizable colors or with customizable icon images (from a predefined set of icons for instance)

So, it would make the tree of repositories easier readable and navigable.

In the log, if a commit includes a submodule pointer commit, tag with the submodule name and use a different symbol or other graphical representation on the graph.

In the Log window, when you select 2 separate files from the same commit, the Changes pane could show the diff between them, instead of showing nothing.

This means that:
• the Changes pane won't be useless in this case, and that
• this would be like a quicker version of the Show Changes context menu item.

It seems that in recent version of SmartGit, word navigation stops before and after every space.

This means that if you have a commit message "Added level 2" with the caret after 2, you need to press Ctrl+Left 3 times to go before "level".

I would rather have the caret skip any space before the next word in the pressed direction, as in other editors, so you press Ctrl+Left/Right as many times as there are words to skip.

In general, such editors also skip multiple spaces before a word. Although YMMV and you may want not to skip if there are 2+ spaces or more. Personally I'd just skip them and let the user go back with Ctrl+Left then Ctrl+Right, or reversely.

Generally speaking, if the user still wants to stop at the other boundary of the word, they can always play with Left/Right and Ctrl+Left/Right for an extra adjustment, it shouldn't take more than one extra input.

AVIF and WEBP are modern image formats that are gaining in popularity. It would be nice to be able to preview the selected images in the SmartGit Changes view prior to committing. Actual image diffs would be great, but just being able to view the image would help a lot.

When renaming a local branch, it often needs to be pushed to origin under that name and the tracked branch of the local one needs to be set to the new one on origin with that name.

That all needs a lot of clicks and typing in the new branch name by hand. I would propose to extend the Push To window by

- a third bullet point (besides Tracked or matching branch and Custom Ref): "To branch with same name as the one to be pushed"

- another option (besides Force pushing): "Set tracked branch to selected branch on origin (Push To target)"

I hope you'll find a better wording for these points.

Currently, SmartGit only for JIRA supports

- selecting an issue with message as commit message

- marking issues as resolved on push

If you want to have this feature for other issue trackers, please write one reply per issue tracker and vote for that

I would like to be able to quickly view the contents of columns with long strings such as "Relative Directory" by using tooltips. It is difficult to see the contents without widening the column.

In a repository with multiple remotes defined, when trying to Push a new branch created in SmartGit, the selected remote is always origin.

I know that Push To can be used to manually select a different remote, but still it would be useful to be able to specify which remote is to be used as default, and automatically select it if there is no tracked branch configured.

Thanks

I would love if the push to popup had a dropdown with last "custom ref" locations you used. I keep pushing to different branches and it would help a lot having last refs you pushed to as quick selection.
