This is so that they look the same no matter what color palette the terminal is
using. (One user complained that the text for the Open state is barely readable,
because they are using a palette that has a very pale green.)
GitHub uses slightly different colors depending on light vs. dark mode;
fortunately they are very close, so hopefully we can ignore this. I picked the
ones for dark mode here, on the assumption that this is more common.
Also, not all terminals support true hex colors; for example, Terminal.app on
macOS doesn't, so it maps the colors to the closest ones in the Xterm-256
palette. This shouldn't be a huge problem, but for some reason it displays draft
PRs as something closer to Cyan than grey, and I don't understand why.
If the repo has multiple remotes, but only one of them is on Github (the others
might for example point to a self-hosted Critic server or something like that),
lazygit would still present a menu to choose the remote for pull requests, but
it would contain only that single entry. That's pointless, pick it automatically
without prompting.
We add some tests while we're at it; these wouldn't have caught the problem,
because they only test getGithubBaseRemote which already takes the filtered
github remotes. It's still better than not having any tests; the real issue
could only have been caught with an integration test, which we don't bother
adding.
If we used to have a base remote (e.g. because there was only one), but now we
don't (e.g. because the user has added a second one, and we don't know yet which
one is the base), stop showing the cached PRs. This is especially important in
the case that the user cancels the prompt, in which case we don't have a base
remote for the rest of the session, but would keep showing the (potentially
stale) cached PRs forever.
This is useful when cancelling out of the commit panel mid-sentence (after
having typed the space for the next word); when entering the commit message
panel again, the space was gone and you had to type it again. Small thing, but
it just seems better to resume the panel in exactly the state that you left it
in. (Which we actually don't do; we don't remember the cursor position, or which
of the subject/description panels was active. That would be a separate
improvement.)
The save path and the load path used to be asymmetric. On save, the textarea
getters applied strings.TrimSpace, which stripped any leading blank lines, a
trailing newline after the cursor, or indentation on the very first line of the
description — all of which are legitimate user content. On load,
SplitCommitMessageAndDescription did TrimSpace on the description as well, and
the preserved message was routed through that same git-format split because
HandleCommitPress passed it as OpenCommitMessagePanel's InitialMessage. The
result: every round-trip through "escape and reopen" silently mutated the
message.
The fix is to treat our own preservation file as its own format, distinct from
git's canonical "summary\n\nbody" format:
- The textarea getters return raw content. strings.TrimSpace moves to the one
place that still needs it: the empty-summary check in HandleCommitConfirm (git
itself strips trailing whitespace and blank lines, so no pre-trim is needed
before -m).
- SplitPreservedCommitMessage / SetPreservedMessageInView split on the single
"\n" our Join uses, without any trimming — truly lossless.
- SplitCommitMessageAndDescription keeps its git-format behavior but replaces
TrimSpace with TrimPrefix("\n"), so it strips only the blank-line separator
and leaves body indentation intact.
- HandleCommitPress now mirrors HandleWIPCommitPress: it no longer passes the
preserved message as InitialMessage. OpenCommitMessagePanel resolves the
preserved content itself, uses it for display via the preservation-format
setter, and stores it as the initial message so the close-time "did the user
change anything?" check still correctly detects a cleared panel.
- GetInitialMessage no longer trims. With raw getters on both sides of the
comparison, trimming here caused spurious non-matches (e.g. for preserved
content with trailing whitespace). The original motivation — matching a
"WIP: " prefix with trailing space — works unchanged.
- UpdateCommitPanelView becomes dead code and is removed; its one remaining
caller (history cycling, always git-format) goes directly through
SetMessageAndDescriptionInView.

This isn't possible with the default quit binding ('q'), but there's an
alternative binding (ctrl-c) that does work while the panel is open; also, users
can rebind quit to something like ctrl-q.
We'll want to call just the preservation step when the app is quitting
with the commit message panel open: at that point the view-hiding and
context-popping in CloseCommitMessagePanel are pointless (the app is
about to exit), and some of the focus-lost side effects could be
surprising during teardown.
There's no reason for this; when opening the panel next time, it will be
populated again. Also, it doesn't make sense to do this only when not preserving
the message.
When no base repository is configured using gh, we have several heuristics for
choosing a likely base repo before prompting the user. One of these was that if
the origin remote exists, we'd choose that. This may be the right choice in some
cases, but in many others it's not; for example, in the common scenario of a
forking setup where the upstream repo's remote is called after its owner, and
the fork remote is called origin, we would choose origin as the base repo, which
results in not showing any PRs. Don't do that, and instead prompt the user for
the base repo in this case.
The assumption is that if a pull request exists on a main branch, it was usually
created by mistake and then closed, and showing it serves no purpose and is only
distracting.
We keep showing open pull requests for main branches though, because this allows
you to notice that there is one that you probably want to close.
This only affects the display (in the branches list and in the main view);
opening the PR in the browser using shift-G is still possible, as is copying its
URL to the clipboard.
This makes it easier to recover them if they were deleted accidentally.
We only do this for local branches for now, we don't bother for remote branches;
it would be trickier there, because the branch on the server might not actually
point to the same hash as our local remote tracking branch does.
For esthetic reasons, checking out a branch (or other ref) blocks the UI until
the refresh is done, so it's important that the refresh doesn't do unnecessary
work. Refreshing pull requests is unnecessary (but costly, when waiting for it)
when a branch is checked out that already existed locally. However, it is
required when checking out a remote branch for the first time, so that the PR
icon appears immediately when there is one.
For the branches panel we might consider unifying it with the existing `o`
command for creating a PR: it could check if there is a PR already, and open it
if so, or create a new one if not.
However, I also want the command in the local commits panel for the checked out
branch, and there's no existing "Create PR" command there; and the `o` command
opens the selected commit in the browser, so it's unrelated.
When you rebase a branch and there are conflicts, lazygit asks you to continue
the rebase when it detects that all conflicts have been resolved. However, it is
common to make additional changes beyond just fixing the conflicts (e.g. to fix
build failures), and when doing that while the "Continue the rebase?" prompt is
showing, lazygit detects that too and asks you if you want to stage those newly
modified files too. This is all well and good (and can be disabled for those who
don't like it); however, lazygit would treat out-of-date submodules as unstaged
changes and would offer to stage those as well, and this is pretty bad and
almost never what you want. Fix this by excluding submodules from that second
check.
Previously, when showing subcommits of a branch or tag, scrolling down, and then
going out and entering subcommits again, it would select the first commit but
keep the previous scroll position, so that the selection was not visible. Always
scroll to the top to fix this.
This is probably the less severe case, but it could still be an issue for people
who have many modified top-level files they want to discard, and have
showRootItemInFileTree set to false; they could select all those files by
pressing 'v' and '>'.
Can be used for doing additional click handling in list views.
Like the GetOnDoubleClick hook we should try to find a better design for this
than putting it in HasKeybindings and BaseContext, since it is only used by list
contexts.
Co-authored-by: Stefan Haller <stefan@haller-berlin.de>
When this was originally introduced, it handled single clicks on a list entry
(treating them similar to a double-click by checking whether the click was on
the selected entry). Arguably it should have been called OnDoubleClick back then
already; but when we later changed it to do actual double-click detection (see
37197b8e9a), we should have renamed the methods.
Actually, we simply enable them in any panel, even those that can never show a
diff. Since the commands show a toast, that's enough feedback to understand what
happened; the change will take effect the next time you switch to a panel that
does show diffs.
Same for ( and ) to change the rename threshold.
I got confused when I investigated the bug that was fixed in the previous
commit, so hopefully these will be helpful for the next person reading this
code.
The symptom of the bug was that confirmation panels with wrapped text were one
character too wide, which could sometimes result in them being one line too
heigh. One concrete example is the "Discard file changes" confirmation that
appears when pressing `d` in the commit files panel.
I got very confused when investigating this bug, and the reason is that
getPopupPanelDimensionsAux took two parameters panelWidth and panelHeight, but
the second was actually contentHeight. Rename it to contentHeight, and change
the first one to also be the content width rather than the panel width. This is
easier for clients, and less confusing.
This commit implements the ability to cycle backward through different
all branches log visualization modes, complementing the existing forward
cycling functionality. Users can now press 'A' (Shift+a) to cycle in
reverse through the available log graph views, improving navigation
efficiency when they overshoot their desired view.
Changes:
- Added RotateAllBranchesLogIdxBackward() method to BranchCommands for
backward rotation through log command candidates
- Introduced AllBranchesLogGraphReverse keybinding configuration with
default key 'A' (uppercase)
- Implemented switchToOrRotateAllBranchesLogsBackward() handler in
StatusController that mirrors forward cycling logic
- Added English translation for "Show/cycle all branch logs (reverse)"
The implementation uses modulo arithmetic with proper handling of
negative indices to ensure seamless backward cycling through the
available log visualization options.
The worktrees tab now displays the checked-out branch (or detached HEAD
state) for each worktree, making it much easier to see which worktree
holds which branch.
This is useful when you need to "unlock" a branch that's occupied by
another worktree: you can now clearly see which worktrees are on a
branch vs detached, without having to select each one individually.
Also rename the "(main)" label to "(main worktree)" to avoid confusion
with the common "main" branch name, and move it after the branch column.
Change working tree files and commit files panels to use filtering
(reducing the list) instead of search (highlighting matches). This
matches the behavior of other filterable views.
The text filter matches against the full file path, not just the
filename, which is more useful for navigating large directory trees.
When toggling a directory for a custom patch while a text filter is
active, only the visible filtered files in the directory are affected,
consistent with how staging a directory in the files panel works.

Without this check, the selection was being reset to 0 whenever
ReApplyFilter was called for the current filter context, even when
the user wasn't actively typing in the search prompt (e.g. when the
model updates in the background). This was causing unexpected cursor
jumps.

When opening a filter prompt, reset PrevSearchIndex to -1 to avoid
stale search state from a previous search/filter session.

I always press 'd' in the patch building view, expecting that I can do
exactly what I can do in the staging view, to find out I need to go
space -> ctrl+p -> d and I think it's time to honour the muscle memory
and support this convenience keybinding.
We don't add the commands to the menu when we're rebasing, so it's pointless to
check this in the handlers.
I guess alternatively we could add all commands always, and strike out the ones
that are not applicable using DisabledReasons. But we don't usually do this in
menus (except the global keybindings menu).
Only mention resetting the patch when there actually is one. This way users have
to read less text in the normal case, and the added note hopefully stands out
more if there is one. Also, separate the note from the previous text by a blank
line.
"Remove" can be confusing when a deleted file is selected; in this cases it
actually "un-removes" it. "Discard" hopefully makes it clearer that we are
talking about the change to a file, and not the file itself.
This is a regression introduced with #5135. I didn't notice it because I am
using `gui.scrollOffBehavior: jump`, in which case the problem wouldn't appear;
it only happened with `scrollOffBehavior: margin` (which is the default). In
that case, if you used the arrow keys (or j/k) to move the selection so that the
view would start to scroll, empty space would appear.
I've optimised for muscle memory backwards compatibility here:
- Outside interactive rebase: press 'f' then instead of a confirmation
panel, a menu appears where you can choose to keep the selected commit's
message
- Inside interactive rebase: press 'f' then press 'c' to see the menu
for keeping the message, where if you press 'c' again it will retain the
current message. so 'fcc' is the chord to press.
We're also now showing the -C flag (which is what enables the behaviour)
against the todo.
I've picked the 'c' keybinding because 'C' was taken and it corresponds
to the flag. Previously that showed a warning about a change in
keybinding for cherry picking but it's been ages since we've made that
change so I'm happy to retire it.
Not used yet, we pass an empty string everywhere, to match the previous
behavior. Just extracting this into a separate commit to make the next one
smaller.

It's been ages since we changed the key, users should hopefully be used to it by
now, and we want to reuse the key for something else later in the branch.

On very large screens they would get ridiculously wide.
The limits we chose here are a little arbitrary:
- 80 for confirmations and prompts
- 90 for menus
- auto-wrap width plus 25 for the commit message editor (or 100 if auto-wrap is
off)
This fixes a bug in ListContextTrait.FocusLine whereby the view would go blank
when scrolling by page (using ',' or '.') in views that have
renderOnlyVisibleLines set to true but refreshViewportOnChange set to false.
Currently we don't have any such views; the only ones who use
renderOnlyVisibleLines are commits and subcommits, and they also use
refreshViewportOnChange. However, we are going to add one in the next commit,
and eventually it might be a good idea to convert all our list views to that by
default, and get rid of the renderOnlyVisibleLines flag.
We have this logic to avoid constantly rerendering the main view when hitting
up-arrow when you are already at the top of the list. That's good, but we do
want to scroll the selection into view if it is outside and you hit up or down,
no matter if it changed.
It is possible to scroll the selection out of view using the mouse wheel; after
doing this, it would sometimes scroll into view by itself again, for example
when a background fetch occurred. In the files panel this would even happen
every 10s with every regular files refresh.
Fix this by adding a scrollIntoView parameter to HandleFocus, which is false by
default, and is only set to true from controllers that change the selection.
We want to do this whenever we switch branches; it wasn't done consistently
though. There are many different ways to switch branches, and only some of these
would reset the selection of all three panels (branches, commits, and reflog).
We move the selection down by the number of commits that were reverted (to keep
the same commits selected). However, this only happens after refreshing, which
has rendered the main view with the wrong commit, so we need to render it again
after moving the selection.
There are many other callers of MoveSelection in LocalCommitsController, but all
of them happen before the refresh. Revert is special because it needs to move
the selection after refreshing, e.g. when reverting the only commit of a branch.
Now that we can use 'k' as a menu item binding (this was fixed in #5131), use it
for the "keep" entry in the merge menu. I don't think this will be a problem for
people's muscle memory, given that this menu is not encountered every day; and
it's simply the better keybinding.
This reverts commit b32b55201e.
The confirmation used to make sense back when the Open MergeTool command was its
own top-level command; however, that command was changed in 703f053a7e to open a
menu instead, and Open MergeTool is now just a submenu entry in that menu, so it
no longer needs a confirmation.
Users have filed issues with crash reports that seem to indicate that the
FileTreeViewModel gets swapped out (by a refresh) while a call to itemsSelected
is in progress, iterating over the previous items. Guard against this by locking
the mutex that we already have for this for the duration of the call.
I don't have a good way of testing whether the fix helps, because the crashes
only occurred very infrequently. Let's just see if the crash reports stop coming
in after we ship this.
Note also that this is only the minimal fix for the crashes that were reported.
Theoretically, the same problem could happen for a key handler itself, but we
never saw reports about that, so we don't bother doing anything about that yet.
Note also that long-term I envision a different solution to this class of
problems (discussed in https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/issues/2974),
that's why I want to avoid locking mutexes more than necessary now.
We move the code to push the branches context into CheckoutRef, this way it
works consistently no matter where we call it from. Previously, checking out
remote branches or tags would switch to the branches view, but checking out a
commit did not.
Note that it now also takes effect for undoing or redoing a checkout, which may
be a bit questionable; but I still think it makes sense for this, too.
This doesn't really solve a pressing problem, because I guess it's unlikely that
users add spaces at the beginning or end of what they type into a prompt; but it
could happen, and in this case we almost always want to strip it. Just adding
this here for completeness while I was working on this code.
The only exception is the input prompt of custom commands, because who knows
what users want to use that input for in their custom command.
Most of our prompts don't (shouldn't) allow empty input, but most callers didn't
check, and would run into cryptic errors when the user pressed enter at an empty
prompt (e.g. when creating a new branch). Now we simply don't allow hitting
enter in this case, and show an error toast instead.
This behavior is opt-out, because there are a few cases where empty input is
supported (e.g. creating a stash).
Previously it was used both for the Confirm handler and the Cancel handler, as
well as for the Confirm handler of confirmation popups (not prompts). There was
no other way to do it given how wrappedConfirmationFunction was shared between
all these; but now there is. The logic is really only needed for the Confirm
handler of prompts.
This doesn't fix anything, it just makes things clearer.
And call this new helper function from both wrappedConfirmationFunction and
wrappedPromptConfirmationFunction; this gives us more flexibility to do
different things in each of those.
When pressing '.' (next page) or ',' (previous page), the selection
now stays at the bottom or top of the viewport respectively, instead
of being centered which caused items to scroll off. If the selection is not
already on the last/first line of the view, '.'/',' moves it there without
scrolling.
This implements a special case for page navigation as suggested by
the maintainer in issue #5017, keeping the cursor position consistent
with user expectations for page-based navigation.
Fixes#5017

The existing diff parser incorrectly treated subsequent lines beginning
with "---" as filename headers while processing hunks. This caused
corruption when dashed lines appeared within diffs themselves.
Restrict filename detection to only occur between hunks.
This will put whatever git's default merge variant is as the first menu item,
and add a second item which is the opposite (no-ff if the default is ff, and
vice versa).
If users prefer to always have the same option first no matter whether it's
applicable, they can make ff always appear first by setting git's "merge.ff"
config to "true" or "only", or by setting lazygit's "git.merging.args" config to
"--ff" or "--ff-only"; if they want no-ff to appear first, they can do that by
setting git's "merge.ff" config to "false", or by setting lazygit's
"git.merging.args" config to "--no-ff". Which of these they choose depends on
whether they want the config to also apply to other git clients including the
cli, or only to lazygit.
- Squash and FastForwardOnly are mutually exclusive, and instead of asserting
this at runtime, model the API so that they can't be passed together.
- FastForwardOnly is unused, so remove it; however, we are going to need --ff
and --no-ff in the next commit, so add those instead.
- Instead of putting the enum into the MergeOpts struct, replace the struct by
the enum. We can reintroduce the struct when we add more arguments, but for
now it's an unnecessary indirection.
Stashing doesn't affect submodules, so if you have a working copy that has
out-of-date submodules but no other changes, and then you revert or paste a
commit (or invoke one of the many other lazygit commands that auto-stash, e.g.
undo), lazygit would previously try to stash changes (which did nothing, but
also didn't return an error), perform the operation, and then pop the stash
again. If no stashes existed before, then this would only cause a confusing
error popup ("error: refs/stash@{0} is not a valid reference"), but if there
were stashes, this would try to pop the newest one of these, which is very
undesirable and confusing.
Whenever git returns the error "The previous cherry-pick is now empty", we would
previously continue the rebase; this works for rebase because it behaves the
same as "git rebase --skip" in this case. That's not true for cherry-pick
though; if you continue a cherry-pick where the current commit is empty, it will
return the same error again, causing lazygit to be stuck in an endless loop.
Fix this by skipping instead of continuing; this shouldn't make a difference for
rebase, but works for cherry-pick.
Theoretically we could have a similar problem for revert (if you are trying to
revert a commit that has already been undone through some other means); this
should then be fixed in the same way with this change. However, the change is
not relevant for revert because git returns a different error in this case.
When focusing the main view, going into full screen mode by pressing '+' twice,
and then opening the search prompt ('/') or a menu (e.g. '?' or ':'), the full
screen display would switch to the focused side panel.
Fix this by always excluding popups from the window arrangement logic. No popup
should ever have any influence on how the views beneath it are laid out.
This is likely to do bad things; for example, if the prompt is the shell command
prompt, then we would run into what looks like a deadlock bug in tcell. In other
cases, the characters in the following lines might be treated as random commands
after the prompt is confirmed.
Doesn't make a difference currently, since the title is either StatusTitle when
the dashboard is showing, or LogTitle when one of the branch logs is showing.
This is going to change in the next commit, though.
Replace merge-tool with merge options menu that allows resolving all
conflicts for selected files as ours, theirs, or union, while still
providing access to the merge tool.
The root item's path is ".", and the path of a file at top level is "./file".
When using GetPath, this gives us "." and "file", respectively, and
isDescendentOfSelectedNodes would return false for these.
Working with the internal paths (i.e. without stripping the leading "./") fixes
this.
Previously, the feedback you got when pressing "-" was just a "Checking out..."
status in the bottom line. This was both easy to miss if you are used to looking
for an inline status in the branches panel, and it didn't provide information
about which branch was being checked out, which can be annoying in very large
repos where checking out takes a while, and you only see at the end if you are
now on the right branch.
Improve this by trying to figure out which branch was the previously checked out
one, and then checking it out normally so that you get an inline status next to
it (as if you had pressed space on it). There are cases where this fails, e.g.
when the previously checked out ref was a detached head, in which case we fall
back to the previous behavior.
In all other menus besides the keybindings menu it makes sense to hide
keybindings that match the confirmMenu binding. This is important to make it
clear which action will be triggered when you press the key.
In the keybindings menu this is different; the main purpose of that menu is not
to allow triggering commands by their key while the menu is open, but to serve
as a reference for what the keybindings are when it is not open. Because of
this, it is more important to show all bindings in this menu, even if they
conflict with the confirmMenu key.
This fixes a regression introduced in b3a3410a1a.
It seems useful to have the flexibility to remap "enter" in confirmations to
"y", but keep "enter" for menus and suggestions (even though we sometimes use
menus as confirmations, but it's still good to give users the choice).
The universal.confirm keybinding is the wrong one to use for this, we want
universal.goInto instead. They are both bound to "enter" by default, but when
remapping confirm to "y" we don't want to use that for entering worktrees.
Rebinding the universal.confirm keybinding currently doesn't make sense, because
the rebound key would also be used for editable prompts, which means you would
only be able to bind it to a ctrl key (not "y", which is desirable for some
people), and also it would allow you to enter a line feed in a branch name.
Fix this by always using enter for editable prompts.
So far, confirmations and prompts were handled by the same view, context, and
controller, with a bunch of conditional code based on whether the view is
editable. This was more or less ok so far, since it does save a little bit of
code duplication; however, now we need separate views, because we don't have
dynamic keybindings, but we want to map "confirm" to different keys in
confirmations (the "universal.confirm" user config) and prompts (hard-coded to
enter, because it doesn't make sense to customize it there).
It also allows us to get rid of the conditional code, which is a nice benefit;
and the code duplication is actually not *that* bad.
To fix the problem described in the previous commit, iterate backwards over the
stashes that we want to delete. This allows us to use their Index field.
In some cases we set a disabled reason but leave the text empty, so that we
don't get an error toast when the item is invoked. In such a case it looks
awkward if there is a tooltip showing "Disabled: " with no following text.
For many menus, just "Close" is fine, but some menus act more like confirmations
(e.g. the menu that appears when you cherry-pick and get conflicts); in this
case, it's good to make it more obvious that hitting esc cancels the whole
thing.
Dismissing a range selection is handled by the global escape handler for all
list views, but not for the staging and patch building views, so we need to make
the esc description dynamic for these, too.
The main reason for this is that sometimes the escape key is handled by a local
binding, in which case it appears before the '?' binding in the options status
bar, and other times it is handled by the global controller, in which case it
appeared after. Moving it to before the keybindings menu handler makes it appear
before '?' in both cases.
Also, if the window is too narrow to show all keybindings, the ones that don't
fit will be truncated, and in this case it is more important to show the esc
binding because of its context sensitivity.
This also moves the esc entry up a few positions in the keybindings menu, but I
don't think this matters much.
It's maybe not totally obvious, so let's show it.
Esc now appears twice in the status bar, because the global controller also
appends its generic "Cancel". We'll fix this in the next commit.
When showing a confirmation whose text ended with a line feed, we would make the
popup panel one line less tall than it needs to be, so it would show a scroll
bar. One example where this occurred is the very first popup that users ever see
(the "seriously you rock" message for new users); that's a pretty bad first
impression.
This happens because our code to suppress trailing newlines in views doesn't
work for styled text, and the text in confirmations is bold. This code checks if
the last character of the text is a line feed, and in this case it isn't; the
escape sequence for turning bold off comes after it.
We should really fix this by improving that mechanism, but this would require
some tricky logic, so as a quick fix, trim trailing (and leading) linefeeds from
the text that we display in a confirmation, before making it bold.
When the useHunkModeInStagingView config is on and you enter the staging view
with hunk selection enabled, it is confusing to see "a: Select hunk" in the
options view at the bottom.
This makes it easier to use the full ref in the git merge-base call, which
avoids ambiguities when there's a tag with the same name as the current branch.
This fixes a hash coloring bug in the local commits panel when there's a tag
with the same name as the checked out branch; in this case all commit hashes
that should be yellow were painted as red.
Also, fix two other commands that stage all files under the hood:
- when continuing a rebase after resolving conflicts, we auto-stage all files,
but in this case we never want to include untracked files, regardless of the
filter
- likewise, pressing ctrl-f to find a base commit for fixup stages all files for
convenience, but again, this should only stage files that are already tracked
Storing it in the Tag struct makes loading tags a lot slower when there is a
very large number of tags; so determine it on the fly instead. On my machine,
the additional call takes under 5ms, so it seems we can afford it.
There's no reason not to allow these.
Technically we could enable a few more, but I chose not to because some might be
surprising or confusing in filtering mode. For example, creating a fixup commit
would work (shift-F), but the newly created commit might not show up if it
doesn't match the filter. Similarly, pressing `f` to fixup a commit into its
parent would work, but that parent commit might not be visible, so users might
expect to be fixing up into the next visible commit.
This is not a behavior change, we already include these in the menu, but that's
because of a bug that we will fix in the next commit.
I find it useful to see these commands, especially for rarely-used custom
commands that you don't want to waste a keybinding on.
When filtering for a file path we use the --follow option for "git log", so it
will follow renames of the file, which is great. However, if you then selected
one of the commits before a rename, you didn't see a diff, because we would pass
the original filter path to the "git show" call.
To fix this, call git log with the --name-status option when filtering by path,
so that each commit reports which file paths are touched in this commit;
remember these in the commit object, so that we can pass them to the "git show"
call later.
Be careful not to store too many such paths unnecessarily. When filtering by
folder rather than file, all these paths will necessarily be inside the original
filter path, so detect this and don't store them in this case.
There is some unfortunate code duplication between loading commits and loading
reflog commits, which I am too lazy to clean up right now.
I don't know why this function argument was added, but I don't like unnecessary
indirections, so I'm removing it as SubCommitsHelper has access to everything it
needs to do it itself.
Recycle reflog commits only for the non-filtered ones.
If we're not filtering, FilteredReflogCommits and ReflogCommits are the same. If
we then enter filtering and get reflog entries again, and pass a
lastReflogCommit, we'd recycle the previous FilteredReflogCommits, which are
unfiltered, so that's no good. Work around this by simply never using the
recycle mechanism when getting the filtered reflog commits.
We could do better by remembering what the last filter path or author was, and
only suppressing the recycling when it changed; but that's more complexity than
I want to add, so hopefully this is good enough.
Using the filtered one is probably not a good idea. It didn't do much harm
because the split of ReflogCommits and FilteredReflogCommits doesn't really work
right now (FilteredReflogCommits is always the same as ReflogCommits, even in
filtering mode), but we'll fix this in the next commit.
I can only guess what happened here: in aa750c0819, this code to manually load
the reflog commits was added, to make sorting branches by recency work when the
reflog is filtered by path. At that time we didn't have separate ReflogCommits
and FilteredReflogCommits models yet. Then, FilteredReflogCommits was introduced
(in 8822c409e2), probably for the very purpose of being able to get rid of this
again; but then it was forgotton to actually get rid of it.
The funny thing is that the introduction of FilteredReflogCommits happened in
the very next commit, 15 minutes later.
Since filtering switches to half-screen mode in the local commits panel, most
people probably didn't notice, but we do also filter those other views. So when
leaving half-screen mode (but not filtering), you could switch to sub-commits or
stashes, and those would show the filtered view only after the next refresh
(e.g. after a background fetch). It's worse when leaving filtering, because this
goes back to normal screen mode, and you would often see an empty stashes panel
after that (until the next background fetch), which is quite confusing.
I also find it questionable to always switch focus to the commits panel when
entering filtering. If it is initiated from subcommits, reflog, or stashes,
maybe we want to stay there. I'm not changing this now since I'm unsure how much
people rely on the current behavior.
When exiting filtering mode while the focus is not in the local commits panel,
the call to HandleFocus would render the selection in the commits panel as if
the panel had the focus.
The call to HandleFocus was introduced recently in 4981419ba9 in an attempt to
rerender the main view correctly, but it should only have been called when local
commits is the focused context. But instead, we can use PostRefreshUpdate, which
handles this distinction.
Previously a click was detected as a double-click whenever the click was on the
already selected line, regardless of how long ago the last click was (or even
when it wasn't selected by clicking at all). Now that gocui supports proper
double-click detection, we can do better.
When entering filtering we would only call FocusLine, which takes care of
highlighting the selected line in the commits list, but not of re-rendering the
main view. HandleFocus does that.
When exiting filtering, the HandleFocus call was missing entirely.
The tests needed to be reworked a little bit to make this testable.
At the same time, we change the defaults for both of them to "date" (they were
"recency" and "alphabetical", respectively, before). This is the reason we need
to touch so many integration tests. For some of them I decided to adapt the test
assertions to the changed sort order; for others, I added a SetupConfig step to
set the order back to "recency" so that I don't have to change what the test
does (e.g. how many SelectNextItem() calls are needed to get to a certain
branch).
When toggling the value in the UI we simply overwrite the value in UserConfig;
this would be bad if there was ever a chance that we want to write the user
config back to disk, but it is very unlikely that we can do that, because
currently we have no way to tell which parts of the config come from the global
config file and which ones come from a repo-local one.
The code was copied from StagingController in 0496e3af50, and I did add the new
text in that commit, I just forgot to adapt the code to actually use it.
We only want to do this when the function is called from the remote branches
panel. It can also be called with a selection of local branches in order to
delete their remote branches, but in this case the selection shouldn't be
collapsed because the local branches stay around.
We had code already that was supposed to do this, but it didn't work. It should
have used SetSelection() instead of SetSelectedLineIdx(); the latter doesn't
actually cancel a range selection.
Introduce a new function specifically for collapsing the range after deleting
multiple items, so that clients don't need two calls (we'll add a bunch more in
this branch).
While it's true that the behavior is a little different from the staging panel,
where the staged lines are actually removed from the view and in many cases the
selection stays more or less in the same place, it is still very useful to move
to the next stageable thing in the custom patch building view too.
This improves the experience when selecting a hunk generously with the mouse, by
dragging over it including some context lines above and below. Previously we
would consider the "moving end" of the selection range for whether things need
to be added or removed, but this doesn't make sense if it's a context line. Now
we consider the first actual change line that is included in the range.
CheckMergeOrRebase calls Refresh already. However, it does an async refresh by
default, so we must turn this into a sync refresh so that moving the selection
down by one works even for the very first commit in history. Also, we must add
an explicit call to FocusLine so that the view selection is in sync with the
model selection; previously this was taken care of by the PostRefreshUpdate call
that happens as part of a refresh.
Keep the same commit selected, by moving the selection down by the number of
cherry-picked commits. We also do this when reverting commits, and it is
possible now that we use a sync waiting status.
We also need to turn the refresh that happens as part of CheckMergeOrRebase into
a sync one, so that the commits list is up to date and the new selection isn't
clamped.
For the case of creating a new branch by moving commits to it, we were using the
current (old) branch name in the stash name; change this to use the new name
instead.
Unlike moving a patch to the index, applying or reverting a patch didn't
auto-stash, which means that applying a patch when there's a modified (but
unstaged) file in the working tree would error out with the message "error:
file1: does not match index", regardless of whether those modifications conflict
with the patch or not.
To fix this, we *could* add auto-stashing like we do for the "move patch to
index" command. However, in this case we rather simply stage the affected files
(after asking for confirmation). This has a few advantages:
- it only changes the staging state of those files that are contained in the
patch (whereas auto-stashing always changes all files to unstaged)
- it doesn't unnecessarily show a confirmation if none of the modified files are
affected by the patch
- if the patch conflicts with the modified files, the conflicts were "backwards"
("ours" was the patch, "theirs" the modified file); it is more logical if "ours"
is the current state of the file, and "theirs" is the patch.
It's a little unfortunate that the behavior isn't exactly the same as for "move
patch to index", but for that one we do need the auto-stash because of the
rebase that runs behind the scenes.
Refresh is one of those functions that shouldn't require error handling (similar
to triggering a redraw of the UI, see
https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/issues/3887).
As far as I see, the only reason why Refresh can currently return an error is
that the Then function returns one. The actual refresh errors, e.g. from the git
calls that are made to fetch data, are already logged and swallowed. Most of the
Then functions do only UI stuff such as selecting a list item, and always return
nil; there's only one that can return an error (updating the rebase todo file in
LocalCommitsController.startInteractiveRebaseWithEdit); it's not a critical
error if this fails, it is only used for setting rebase todo items to "edit"
when you start an interactive rebase by pressing 'e' on a range selection of
commits. We simply log this error instead of returning it.
This was added after this PR comment:
https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/pull/3276#discussion_r1469077611
> Can we do a refresh after this reset so that the screen shows that the patch

I don't understand what "cancel on the next popup" means; there is no further
popup after this code.
I took the set of enabled checks from revive's recommended configuration [1],
and removed some that I didn't like. There might be other useful checks in
revive that we might want to enable, but this is a nice improvement already.
The bulk of the changes here are removing unnecessary else statements after
returns, but there are a few others too.

The function would return "head/branchname" when there was either a tag or a
remote with the same name.
While fixing this we slightly change the semantic of the function (and of
determineCheckedOutBranchName, which calls it): for a detached head it now
returns an empty string rather than the commit hash. I actually think this is
better.
Pretty basic fix, didn't seem to have any complications.
I only added the refs/ prefix to the FullRefName() method
to align with other similar methods, and to make this change
not impact any user facing modals.

Also adds a test demonstrating that the stash show behavior is now fixed
Previously we would call pullFiles() from the pick() handler if we were not in a
rebase, assuming that the default keybinding for both is "p". This needn't be
the case of course, if the user has remapped one or the other.
The consequence of this was that swapping the keybindings for "pullFiles" and
"pushFiles" would work in all panels except the Commits panel (unless "pick" was
also remapped in the same way).
Fix this by using the new AllowFurtherDispatching mechanism of DisabledReasons
to pass the keybinding on to the next handler.
Moving the getter of the suggested branch name to a separate function
allows us to reuse it in situations where we are not calling the regular
create new branch function, such as move commits to a new branch

When refreshing the branches list, we have code to keep the same branch selected
even when the refresh changes the sort order; this code remembers the selected
branch before the refresh, and then tries to select it again afterwards (looking
it up by name) if it is still there.
However, we stored the previously selected branch too early, before even
obtaining the branches list; if the user moved the selection between that point
and the end of the refresh, it would jump back. Fix this by remembering the
previous selection only at the last moment, right before assigning the new
branches slice.
We still have a race condition here between the UI code that manages the
selection as the user presses arrow keys, and the background thread doing the
refresh that reads and restores the selection; however, the race was there
before, and we make it neither better nor worse with this PR. It doesn't seem to
be a problem in practice.
The click handler of MainViewController was registered as a global handler, so
it was used when a side panel was focused that doesn't have a
SwitchToFocusedMainViewController attached (e.g. Status, Worktrees, or
Submodules). This handler would then push the main view context, but with the
code that is meant only for toggling between the main view pair contexts, i.e.
with taking over the parentContext from the otherContext, which doesn't have one
at that point. This would later lead to a crash in onClick because the
parentContext was nil.
Fix this by splitting the click handler in two, one for when it already has the
focus, and one for toggling from the other view, and make these focus specific.
I'm not aware of any real scenario where this can happen, but we have seen one
stack trace where it crashed with an out-of-bounds error in the range expression
below, so there must be a way. And it seems better to guard against it anyway,
rather than assuming it can't happen.
This now allows for leaving the status panel and returning back to the
same log command. Previously any return to the status panel would result
in the next command in the list being shown. Now, you need to press `a`,
with a log command being rendered, to rotate to the next
allBranchesLogCmd.
In one case it was actually called *before* making a commit (when switching from
the commit message panel to committing in the editor). And clearing the
preserved message is the only thing it does, so name it after what it does
rather than when it's called.
Previously it would only clear the message if the panel had been opened with
preserveMessage=true; we don't need this check, because callers know how they
opened the panel, and whether they want to clear the message.
This is no change in behavior because OnCommitSuccess only clears the message
when the commit message panel was opened with preserveMessage=true, which it
isn't in the case of creating a tag.
And this is in fact the desired behavior, because we don't want creating a tag
to interfere with preserving commit messages in any way.
The default binding for ConfirmInEditor is <a-enter>, which has two problems:
- some terminal emulators don't support it, including the default terminal on
Mac (Terminal.app)
- on Windows it is bound to toggling full-screen
Ideally we would use <c-enter> instead (and Command-Enter on Mac), but neither
is possible without https://github.com/gdamore/tcell/issues/671, so for the time
being add an alternate keybinding which works everywhere.
Show both bindings in the footer of the commit description panel if they are
both non-null. While we're at it, fix the footer for the case where either or
both of the keybindings are set to <disabled>.
And finally, change "commit" to "submit" in that footer; we use the same panel
also for creating tags, in which case "commit" is not quite right.
It's never called, the binding ListController.HandleGotoBottom wins.
The functionality of loading more commits is implemented by GetOnFocus, and this
way it works not only for '>', but also for other navigation keys like page
down.
This in itself is not an improvement, because hashes are unique (they are shared
between real commits and rebase todos, but there are so few of those that it
doesn't matter). However, it becomes an improvement once we also store parent
hashes in the same pool; but the real motivation for this change is to also
reuse the hash pointers in Pipe objects later in the branch. This will be a big
win because in a merge-heavy git repo there are many more Pipe instances than
commits.
This makes it easier to copy diff hunks and paste them into code. We only strip
the prefixes if the copied lines are either all '+' or all '-' (possibly
including context lines), otherwise we keep them. We also keep them when parts
of a hunk header is included in the selection; this is useful for copying a diff
hunk and pasting it into a github comment, for example.
A not-quite-correct edge case is when you select the '--- a/file.txt' line of a
diff header on its own; in this case we copy it as '-- a/file.txt' (same for the
'+++' line). This is probably uncommon enough that it's not worth fixing (it's
not trivial to fix because we don't know that we're in a header).
This is very similar to what we are doing for staging or discarding hunks in the
Files panel. Git doesn't allow applying patches with a zero context size (unless
you use the --unidiff-zero option, which is discouraged).
The long story: I want to call this function from RefsHelper; however, I can't
make WorkingTreeHelper a field of RefsHelper because RefsHelper is already a
field in WorkingTreeHelper, so that would be a circular dependency.
The shorter story: there's really little reason to have to instantiate a helper
object in order to call a simple function like this. Long term I would like to
get to a state where a lot more of these helper functions are free-standing, and
you pass in the data they need.
While at it, simplify the implementation of AnyStagedFiles and AnyTrackedFiles
to one-liners.
It's the same, really, except that GetCheckedOutRef() does a check if any
branches exist and returns nil if not. Since we are accessing the returned
branch unconditionally without checking for nil, it seems this check is not
needed here. (The functions we are touching here are called from handlers that
are guarded with itemSelected or singleItemSelected, so we know that at least
one branch exists.)
The goal is to get rid of the dependency to refsHelper.
In this commit this is only possible by pressing '0' in a side panel; we'll add
mouse clicking later in the branch.
Also, you can't really do anything in the focused view except press escape to
leave it again. We'll add some more functionality in a following commit.
Previously we would render the diff for a directory to the main/secondary pair,
but a diff for a file to the staging/stagingSecondary pair. (And similar for
commit files: main/secondary for directories, but
patchBuilding/patchBuildingSecondary for files.)
I always found this confusing and couldn't really understand why we are doing
this; but now it gets in my way because I want to attach a controller to
main/secondary so that they can be focused. So change it to always use the main
context pair for everything we render from a side panel.
We do this because
- it's closer to what you would do on the command line
- it simplifies the code a bit
- it will allow us to support cherry-picking merge commits.
We treat the .git/sequencer/todo file as read-only. Technically it seems it
would be possible to treat it as modifiable in the same way as
.git/rebase-merge/git-rebase-todo, effectively turning a cherry-pick or revert
that stops at a conflict into an interactive rebase; however, git itself doesn't
allow this (there is no "git cherry-pick --edit-todo"), so it seems safer not to
rely on it.
Theoretically it would be possible to allow modifying the rebase todos when a
cherry-pick or revert conflicts in the middle of a rebase. However, it would
introduce a bit of complexity to support this, as we would have to be able to
distinguish between rebasing todos and cherry-picking/reverting todos, which we
currently can't; it could also be a bit error-prone as far as edge cases are
concerned. And it's really a pretty uncommon situation, so it doesn't seem worth
it, and we just forbid all modifications to todos whenever we are cherry-picking
or reverting.
It is useful to see if the conflicted commit was a "pick" or an "edit". What's
more, we're about to add support for showing cherry-picks and reverts, and
seeing that a conflicted commit was a revert is important because its diff is
backwards compared to the diff of the conflicting files in the Files panel.
This is equivalent in the current state of the code, but it will no longer be
after the next commit, because we will introduce a new status value
StatusConflicted. And in a later PR we might add yet another value
StatusCherryPicking to distinguish rebase todos from cherry-pick todos; using
commit.IsTODO is a safer way to check whether a commit is any of these.
When you are in the middle of a rebase, and you cherry-pick a commit which
conflicts, it helps to be clear on whether you are prompted to continue the
cherry-pick or the rebase.
It looks like enums.go was supposed to be file that collects a bunch of enums,
but actually there's only one in there, and since it has methods, it deserves to
be in a file of its own, named after the type.
- Remove REBASE_MODE_NORMAL. It is not the "normal" mode anyway, rather a legacy
mode; we have removed support for it in eb0f7e3d02, so there's no point in
representing it in the enum.
- Remove distinction between REBASE_MODE_REBASING and REBASE_MODE_INTERACTIVE;
these are the same now.
- Rename StatusCommands.IsInInteractiveRebase to IsInRebase.
- Remove StatusCommands.RebaseMode; use StatusCommands.IsInRebase instead.
It is shown either when committing with `w`, or when typing the skipHooks prefix
if there is one. This should hopefully make it clearer when the hooks are run
and when they are not.
We removed prefilling the skipHook prefix in b102646b20 with the intention of
making it clearer that using the prefix in normal commits and typing `w` to skip
hooks are now two independent features.
It turns out that some people liked it with prefilling the prefix and perceive
it as a regression, so put it back in.
But only if we don't have a preserved message; this is an important use case,
when you try to make a normal commit, the hook fails, and then you want to make
the same commit with skipping the hook, but with the same message that you
already typed.
This makes it possible to use date and time in initial values like this:
```yaml
initialValue: 'ruudk/{{ runCommand "date +\"%Y/%-m\"" }}/'
```
I want to use this to configure my BranchPrefix like this:
```yaml
git:
branchPrefix: 'ruudk/{{ runCommand "date +\"%Y/%-m\"" }}/'
```
For the less common conflict types DD, AU, UA, DU, and UD, we would previously
only show "* Unmerged path" in the main view, which isn't helpful. Also, for
some of these we would split the main view and show this text both in the
unstaged changes and staged changes views, which is a bit embarrassing.
Improve this by offering more explanation about what's going on, and what the
most likely way to resolve the situation is for each case.
I can only guess here: maybe they were added to more clearly document the public
interface of the classes? If so, I don't think that works. Developers who are
not familiar with the convention will just add a new public method to the class
without updating the interface.
Apparently this was an attempt at working around go's lack of default arguments,
but it's very unidiomatic and a bit confusing. Make it a normal parameter
instead, so all clients have to pass it explicitly.
The current rules for discarding submodule changes is that no other changed item
must be also selected. There are some bugs with the current implementation when
submodules are in folders.
For example, selecting and discarding a folder with only a nested submodule
change will currently do nothing. The submodule changes should be discarded. The
folder only contains submodule changes so it should be no different than
pressing discard on the submodule entry itself.
Also, I noticed range selecting both the folder and the submodule and then
pressing discard would be incorrectly disallowed.

This is useful for copying the entire content of the selected file as it was at
the selected commit.
We only add it to the commit files panel; it is not needed in the files panel,
because there you can simply press "e" to edit the file.
Before we changed the commitPrefix config to a list in #4261, we had this bug
where the defaults section in Config.md would erroneously list the default for
commitPrefix as
git:
commitPrefix:
pattern: ""
replace: ""
This was not correct, commitPrefix was a pointer, and the default for that was
nil, which is not the same.
Now, some people copied and pasted the entire defaults section into their config
files, setting the commitPrefix to an empty pattern (which is not the same as
not setting it at all). And this caused the branch name to be filled in to the
subject field for every commit; see for example
https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/discussions/3632.
New users copying the defaults section into their config file in the current
version no longer have this problem because now that commitPrefix is a list, it
is no longer included in the defaults section. However, the migration that we
added in #4261 would happily carry over those empty strings into a list entry,
so people migrating from an older version still have the broken config in their
config files.
To work around the issue, ignore commit prefix settings whose pattern is an
empty string. I can't imagine a valid reason why people would actually want to
set the pattern to an empty string, so I assume this only comes from the broken
defaults problem described above.
Rewording a commit at the beginning of a long branch can take very long;
without this change, the commit message panel would stay visible with a blinking
cursor during that time, which is very confusing.
This has the slight downside that it will say "Rebasing" in the lower right
corner until the operation is done; but we already have this problem when doing
custom patch operations, or dropping changes from a commit, so it's not new, and
we can think about how to fix all these another time.
WithGpgHandling already does an async refresh when done, so there's no need to
do one here for the case of amending the head commit. On top of that,
WithGpgHandling uses WithWaitingStatus and works in the background, so the
Refresh here would come too early anyway.
