Using Windows.

Yes, risk exists with killing the running process.  I was thinking of letting the current process finish but not starting another one - cancel running the rest of them.  Is this possible?

Additionally, is it possible to not disable a few options, such as Log and the "Open" operations, during the background fetch operation?

Wondering if this feature is on the radar yet?  Just looking to not have to launch gitk and git gui! :-)

Wondering if this feature is in plans for the release 18 stream?  It's my biggest usability issue - opening and closing log windows a lot - so hoping for the Repositories view on the log window.

In case this helps, I have the repositories in groups and use

  right-click on group -> Open Repository | Open Repository in New Window

I use the Open Repository in New Window one all the time to keep open a group of repos and also open another repo group.

fixup! with "Rebase Interactive From..." is working well in 18.1 preview 1 !  Thank you for adding that, I missed having it and used command line instead.

And correctly indent the second and subsequent lines for bulleted lists (e.g. lines that begin with * or -).  e.g.:

* This is my list that wraps

  onto multiple lines with a

  formatted paragraph and indent.

Added related one to configure this at the group level:

Wonderful, thank you!

Any chance of adding this to one of the 17.1 patch releases vs waiting for 18.1?

> "minimize" means to show the tray icon only after the (last) window has been minimized

Good point, agreed.

> alternatives to "nest in system tray"

The word "nest" confused me until I tried it.  Yes, I like "Show system tray icon".  It doesn't say "what for/features", but it lets me know it will display an icon in the tray and I can see what its features are.
