Visual Studio connection

Pawel 2 months ago updated by Peter Slížik 2 days ago 5

I didnt write my request so...

What i want to see in future release of Smartgit is connection to Visual Studio.

I dont know it its possible (maybe it needs some extension in VS).

When i find some difference in commit in repository (in Smartgit), i want to click some button and magic could happen: cursor set in VS in that file in that very  line - to make my further changes.

VS have some gif functionality included, but smartgit is my favorite tool, i dont want to learn git in VS.

Pawel,

thank you for your feedback! There is some complexity to this. To open a file or to open a full solution?
In what part of the process do you want to us it? During Merge/Rebase? or from changes in the diff view?

Cheers

Daniel

just opening the file should be enough.I assume that solution is already open.

I need jump from diff window in Smartgit direcly to point in VS, where i could edit this very change.

thank you for checking this :)

Pawel

Do you mean the Changes view in SmartGit? Did you already try to add an external tool in the SmartGit preferences, that invokes VS with the selected file?

This seems (kind-of, I know...) as a duplicate of my improvement suggestion I made a few years ago:
