GitHub Comment Bubbles for All Commits with Comments
Currently, comment bubbles are limited to PRs, yet many valuable discussions also occur directly on individual commits. Access to these comments within SmartGit would provide a more holistic view of the dialogues around code changes and project evolution.
Therefore, my feature request is the extension of the GitHub comment bubbles to all commits that have comments.
Log, Files: reveal file directory context menu item
I really want the ability to right click the file in Files window and choose something like "Reveal file directory" in the context menu.
Alternatively have another option in the Files toolbar, something like "Directory follows selected file" to have it revealed automatically.
SmartGit version: 4.3.1 #9004, installed: #19259
Option to configure what to fetch instead of all tags & branches
Currently the way fetching works is that all tags & branches are fetched.
This is rather annoying, as it can bloat up the local repo, sometimes increasing the size substantially.
I end up having to use the terminal for fetches instead.
I'd like a way to configure which branches are being fetched, and if tags are included. I usually just fetch the `master` branch along with all tags.
Search for commit
Hi Guys,
About a year ago, when I used a filter to find a particular commit, after dropping the filter to see all commits my selection was remaining on the commit that I found and selected. After some of the releases, this functionality was dropped. Now, if I found a commit in the filtered content and want to drop the filter, my selection jumps to the top. I need to remember my commit's date and look in the three for it manually again.
Was this change done intentionally? Is it possible to get that "sticky selection" functionality back?
Best regards,
Edgar
Edit Message dialog: add option 'Signed-off-by' signature
Hi, I contribute to a few projects that require the "Signed-off-by:" footer in the commit message.
I'm forever forgetting to add it manually though, so have to ammend commit messages to add it, force push, etc.
While I know there's an option to add this in the Local->Commit dialog box, I always use the Commit pane in the main window which doesn't expose this option.
Also, the "Edit commit message" dialog box also does not have an option for this, and it's tedious to type it manually (without typos).
It would be great if there was a per-project setting to always add this (similar / next to to the options to add GPG signing to commits)
Separately, it'd be handy if the checkbox to add this was also added to the "Edit commit message" dialog.
Cheers,
Andrew
Refresh: only refresh repositories of the activated window (when switching back to SmartGit)
With Preferences option "Refresh file system also while SmartGit is in background" deselected, SmartGit currently refreshes all windows when switching back from another application.
The request is to only refresh the activated window.
Add option to exclude "Follow First Parent" when searching
It is very frustrating when I couldn't find my commit in the graph search bar simply because I had "Follow First Parent" turned on.
Implementing it as a opt-in advanced option would be ok too, although I don't see why the search have to filter the non-first-parents out. The commit is basically in the graph, just collapsed.
Customize Output View in SmartGit: Enhanced Error and Warning Highlighting
Enhancing the output view in SmartGit to enable users to distinctly and noticeably highlight specific errors and warnings, such as by using different colors (e.g., red for errors and yellow for warnings), would provide significant benefits. This improvement would be particularly helpful for those utilizing self-written tools and custom hooks.
