In order to trigger a refresh for SmartGit, you have to close the app out and re-open it.

It would be nice to have a command via shell that can trigger a refresh. I have a script that I pull down all the repos and then it would be nice to have the refresh command triggered in SmartGit to refresh all the green arrows for pull.

I expected that "modify commit" would work like cherry pick without commit. In other words, it would rewind to before the selected commit and then stage but not commit the selected commit so that you can edit it. Then when you complete it should re-apply all subsequent commits. It would be great if "modify commit" did this, or there was another functionality which provided this workflow.

During an interactive rebase the main window is not accessible.Therefore it is not possible to access the graph and to get commit specific information (files which changed and file diff support). Therefore a large rebase process could be very annoying if only the commit message is visible / accessible.

I would be nice to have an option in the contextual menu of a commit to copy the "Full commit data", similar the "copy to clipboard" -> "Full data" feature in Tortoise Git (and Tortoise SVN).

It would be very handy if remote branch context menu had option to set the current branch's upstream. So user could create a branch, then right click the remote branch tile they want to track (which is usually there in the graph) to set the upstream.

The current Git convention is changing the principal branch name from master to main but SmartGit always create the principal branch named "master". If user want to use a different name to the principal branch a rename action is required after repository is created.

Please, add a configuration option to permit user configure any preferred name for the principal branch, then when a new repository is created, the preferred name is used, instead master.

Thanks for your attention and support,

When I create a local branch which doesn't track any remote branch yet and want to push the changes to a remote it would be nice if there was an option to select the remote repository and the branch.

Basically I would like to see this dialog, which is shown when I select "Push Up To..." in the branches view:

also when I select "Push Up To..." in the logs view.

The behavior of "Push Up To..." differs between the different windows:

Working Tree Window + Log Window: A dialog is shown where I can push the commits and SmartGit will push the changes to a corresponding branch on the default remote

Standard Window: SmartGit directly pushes to a corresponding branch on the default remote

I often work with local commits where I have stored some local settings which I don't won't to push to the remote repository. That's the reason why I sometimes don't won't to push the complete branch to the remote repository.

Best regards

Martin

Please add the ability to take all blocks above/below the current position in the File Compare interface

On Github Enterprise it is possible to register an app. In the dialog you have to specify a callback URL. If I understood it correctly this registration would be needed if I wanted to generate an access token from within SmartGit. If this is the case it would be nice if there was some documentation on how to configure this.

It would be helpful to have an option that allows to reduce the complexity of the log graph by showing only commits that are tagged, or somewhat decorated (like head of branhces, etc.), still keeping branch and merge points visible.

In essence, the result should be what you get on the command line with:

git log --graph --simplify-by-decoration --oneline

That would make it much easier to grasp the history of repos that have long lived branches with hundreds of commits, which are seldom merged and tagged.

On the UI, this option could be a button/menu next to the filter text box, or could be triggered by a special "keyword" typed directly there, like "tagged" or "decorated" (with some special character perhaps? like #tagged or #decorated)
