In the branches list we show the checks icon (✓, ✗ etc) instead of the
gihub icon for branches that are open and have a state. It is a little
confusing, because the ✓ in front of the name means something very
different than the ✓ after it, but the checks status is just too useful
to see in the list.
In the main view we show it as a compact status before the PR title,
with a hyperlink that takes you directly to the checks tab in Github.
The branch controller should decide which pull request to show, not how its
header is styled and linked. Move the existing formatter and state badge next
to the branch presentation helpers so subsequent header changes stay in one
layer.
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.
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.
The only information that this carries is whether an entry is a real branch or a
detached head. Detached heads can only be at the top, and they are easy to tell
apart from the other branches by their name, so the icon is not really very
useful.
We are going to show PR icons in this column.
If the showDivergenceFromBaseBranch config is not none, the expanded branches
panel would no longer show the remote branch and subject; the reason was that we
padded the name all the way to the right edge of the view so that the divergence
information is right-aligned.
To fix this, we simply don't right-align the divergence in half or full screen
mode. This is a bit unfortunate, but it's hard to do any better, because we
don't know the width of our column in advance. One thing I tried is to make the
divergence a separate column in that case (with an explicit right-alignment set
on it via getColumnAlignments; however, this makes it harder to properly
truncate the name when the window is too narrow.
When a branch is checked out by another worktree, show the worktree
name in the label, e.g. "(worktree cosmos2)" instead of just
"(worktree)", so you can immediately see which worktree holds it.
We used to automatically color branches starting with "feature/", "bugfix/", or
"hotfix/". For those who don't want this, it's a bit non-obvious to turn off,
but it's actually pretty easy to configure manually for those who want this, so
we just remove this default coloring.
runewidth.StringWidth is an expensive call, even if the input string is pure
ASCII. Improve this by providing a wrapper that short-circuits the call to len
if the input is ASCII.
Benchmark results show that for non-ASCII strings it makes no noticable
difference, but for ASCII strings it provides a more than 200x speedup.

Previously the entire status was colored in a single color, so the API made
sense. This is going to change in the next commit, so now we must include the
color in the string returned from BranchStatus(), which means that callers who
need to do hit detection or measure the length need to decolorize it.
While we're at it, switch the order of ↑3↓7 to ↓7↑3. For some reason that I
can't really explain I find it more logical this way. The software out there is
pretty undecided about it, it seems: VS Code puts ↓7 first, and so does the
shell prompt that comes with git; git status and git branch -v put "ahead" first
though. Shrug.
We upgraded our minimum Go version to 1.21 in commit
57ac9c2189. We can now replace our
`utils.Min` and `utils.Max` functions with the built-in `min` and `max`.

When pulling/pushing/fast-forwarding a branch, show this state in the branches
list for that branch for as long as the operation takes, to make it easier to
see when it's done (without having to stare at the status bar in the lower
left).
This will hopefully help with making these operations feel more predictable, now
that we no longer show a loader panel for them.
The model will be used for logic, so the full hash is needed there; a shortened
hash of 8 characters might be too short to be unique in very large repos. If
some view wants to display a shortened hash, it should truncate it at
presentation time.
We've been sometimes using lo and sometimes using my slices package, and we need to pick one
for consistency. Lo is more extensive and better maintained so we're going with that.
My slices package was a superset of go's own slices package so in some places I've just used
the official one (the methods were just wrappers anyway).
I've also moved the remaining methods into the utils package.
Branches can now be colored based on their prefix, if it matches
a user defined prefix in the config file. If no user defined
prefix matches, then it will fallback to the defaults: green for
'feature', yellow for 'bugfix', and red for 'hotfix'. All
remaining branches will be set to the default text color.
