I was looking for empty strings in en.json, that's how I found this one. It
resulted in an empty log entry when adding a co-author to an existing commit.
It seems that the embed.FS always uses foreward slashes, even on
Windows.
This not only affected generating the cheatsheets, but also loading a
translation file in production.
We write a hacky, one-off script to do that. We need this script only once, so
we don't bother polishing it much. We'll re-purpose it later in the branch to
convert the English translation set to JSON; that is an operation that we need
to do regularly in the future.
Strike it through if not applicable. This will hopefully help with confusion
about the meaning of "all" in the "Discard all changes" entry; some people
misunderstand this to mean all changes in the working copy. Seeing the "Discard
unstaged changes" item next to it hopefully makes it clearer that "all" is meant
in contrast to that.
Unfortunately it isn't possible to delete them. This would often be useful, but
our todo rewriting mechanisms rely on being able to find todos by some
identifier (hash for pick, ref for update-ref), and exec todos don't have a
unique identifier.
Put it into the individual menu items instead.
Again, this is necessary because we are going to add another entry to the menu
that is independent of the selected branch.
This broke with 81b497d186 (#3387). In that PR I claimed that we never want to
ask for force-pushing if the server rejected the update, on the assumption that
this can only happen because the remote tracking branch is not up to date, and
users should just fetch in this case. However, I didn't realize it's even
possible to have a branch whose upstream branch is not stored locally; in this
case we can't tell ahead of time whether a force push is going to be necessary,
so we _have_ to rely on the server response to find out. But we only want to do
that in this specific case, so this is not quite an exact revert of 81b497d186.
To support this, we turn the confirmation prompt of the "Create fixup commit"
command into a menu; creating a fixup commit is the first entry, so that
"shift-F, enter" behaves the same as before. But there are additional entries
for creating "amend!" commits, either with or without file changes. These make
it easy to reword commit messages of existing commits.
We pass all of them to a single editor command, hoping that the editor will be
able to handle multiple files (VS Code and vim do).
We ignore directories that happen to be in the selection range; this makes it
easier to edit multiple files in different folders in tree view. We show an
error if only directories are selected, though.
Some operations don't support switching to the editor from the commit message
panel; an example is the commit message panel that appears when moving a custom
patch into a new commit. Disable the "open in editor" menu entry in this case,
instead of silently doing nothing.
Previously we would hide it if no onSwitchToEditor function was set; that was
from a time when <c-o> was bound directly to the switch-to-editor command. Now
it is bound to showing a menu, and that menu is always available even if no
onSwitchToEditor function is set. (We rather need to disable the switch to
editor item _within_ that menu, see next commit.)
By default we now search for substrings; you can search for multiple substrings
by separating them with spaces. Add a config option gui.filterMode that can be
set to 'fuzzy' to switch back to the previous behavior.
Lazygit has two ways to decide whether it needs to ask the user to force-push:
1. if it knows ahead of time that the push will fail because the branch has
diverged, by looking at the incoming/outgoing information that it shows as ↑3↓7.
2. by examining the error that comes back when the push has failed.
The second situation should happen only rarely, because lazygit fetches every
minute by default, so the ↑3↓7 information is usually up to date. It might not
be if the user turned off auto-fetch (or increased the auto-fetch interval).
However, in this case it's almost always harmful to prompt the user to
force-push, because we know that the reason for diverging is that something was
pushed to the remote, and we would wipe it out by force-pushing. In such a
situation, the more likely user action is to pull the remote changes and then
push normally again.
So just remove the second prompt, and replace it by a better error message when
we detect that updates were rejected remotely.
A little bit of history archeology reveals that the second prompt was added at a
time where we didn't have the first one yet, so at that time it made sense to
have it; but when the first prompt was added, we should have removed the second.
This commit introduces a new feature to the commit view, allowing users
to filter commits based on the author's name or email address. Similar
to the existing path filtering functionality, accessible through <c-s>,
this feature allows users to filter the commit history by the currently
selected commit's author if the commit view is focused, or by typing in
the author's name or email address.
This feature adds an entry to the filtering menu, to provide users with
a familiar and intuitive experience
To do that, change the "Apply fixup commits" command to show a menu with the two
choices "in current branch" and "above the selected commit"; we make "in current
branch" the default, as it's the more useful one most of the time, even though
it is a breaking change for those who are used to "shift-S enter" meaning
"squash above selected".
This adds a bunch of tooltips to keybindings and updates some keybinding descriptions (i.e. labels).
It's in preparation for displaying more keybindings on-screen (in the bottom right of the screen),
and so due in part to laziness it shortens some descriptions so that we don't need to manage both
a short and long description (for on-screen vs in-menu). Nonetheless I've added a ShortDescription
field for when we do want to have both a short and long description.
You'll notice that some keybindings I deemed unworthy of the options view have longer descriptions,
because I could get away with it.
As part of this, you must now press enter on a merge conflict file
to focus the merge view; you can no longer press space and if you do
it will raise an error.
We want to show an error when the user tries to invoke an action that expects only
a single item to be selected.
We're using the GetDisabledReason field to enforce this (as well as DisabledReason
on menu items).
I've created a ListControllerTrait to store some shared convenience functions for this.
This requires us to change the 'v' keybinding for paste to something else,
now that 'v' is used globally for toggling range select. So I'm using
'shift+v' and I'm likewise changing 'c' to 'shift+c' for copying, so
that they're consistent.
We will need to clearly communicate this change in keybindings.
This adds range select ability in two ways:
1) Sticky: like what we already have with the staging view i.e. press v then use arrow keys
2) Non-sticky: where you just use shift+up/down to expand the range
The state machine works like this:
(no range, press 'v') -> sticky range
(no range, press arrow) -> no range
(no range, press shift+arrow) -> nonsticky range
(sticky range, press 'v') -> no range
(sticky range, press arrow) -> sticky range
(sticky range, press shift+arrow) -> nonsticky range
(nonsticky range, press 'v') -> no range
(nonsticky range, press arrow) -> no range
(nonsticky range, press shift+arrow) -> nonsticky range
A common issue I have is that I want to move a commit from the top of my branch
all the way down to the first commit on the branch. To do that, I need to navigate
down to the first commit on my branch, press 'e' to start an interactive rebase,
then navigate back up to the top of the branch, then move my commit back down to
the base. This is annoying.
Similarly annoying is moving the commit one-by-one without explicitly starting
an interactive rebase, because then each individual step is its own rebase which
takes a while in aggregate.
This PR allows you to press 'i' from the commits view to start an interactive
rebase from an 'appropriate' base. By appropriate, we mean that we want to start
from the HEAD and stop when we reach the first merge commit or commit on the main
branch. This may end up including more commits than you need, but it doesn't make
a difference.
The algorithm works by blaming the deleted lines, so if a hunk contains only
added lines, we can only hope that it also belongs in the same commit. Warn the
user about this.
Note: the warning might be overly agressive, we'll have to see if this is
annoying. The reason is that it depends on the diff context size whether added
lines go into their own hunk or are grouped together with other added or deleted
lines into one hunk. However, our algorithm uses a diff context size of 0,
because that makes it easiest to parse the diff; this results in hunks having
only added lines more often than what the user sees. For example, moving a line
of code down by two lines will likely result in a single hunk for the user, but
in two hunks for our algorithm. On the other hand, being this strict makes the
warning consistent. We could consider using the user's diff context size in the
algorithm, but then it would depend on the current context size whether the
warning appears, which could be confusing. Plus, it would make the algorithm
quite a bit more complicated.
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.
Now that we no longer show it in a loader panel, but in the app status view,
it's awkwardly long (the loading animation is much further to the right than for
other waiting status texts). Hopefully seeing just "Fast-forwarding <branch>" is
enough to be able to tell what's happening.
This is useful to disable items that are not applicable right now because of
some condition (e.g. the "delete branch" menu item when the currently
checked-out branch is selected).
When a DisabledReason is set on a menu item, we
- show it in a tooltip (below the regular tooltip of the item, if it has one)
- strike through the item's key, if it has one
- show an error message with the DisabledReason if the user tries to invoke the
command
Add co-author to commits
Add addCoAuthor command for commits
- Implement the `addCoAuthor` command to add co-authors to commits.
- Utilize suggestions helpers to populate author names from the suggestions list.
- Added command to gui at `LocalCommitsController`.
This commit introduces the `addCoAuthor` command, which allows users to easily add co-authors to their commits. The co-author names are populated from the suggestions list, minimizing the chances of user input errors. The co-authors are added using the Co-authored-by metadata format recognized by GitHub and GitLab.
This should already have been done when adding the "View divergence from
upstream" command, but now we're going to add yet another item to the menu that
is unrelated to setting or unsetting the upstream.
Only do this when an onSwitchToEditor function is actually provided. For the
"Move patch into new commit" command we don't, because it isn't totally
straightforward in that case.
If the command used by OSCommand.OpenLink fails, lazygit crashes. With this change, if the OpenLink command fails, lazygit just shows a dialog inviting the user to visit the relevant URL.
Fixes#2882
This allows to do the equivalent of "git rebase --onto <target> <base>", by
first marking the <base> commit with the new command, and then selecting the
target branch and invoking the usual rebase command there.
For marking as good or bad, the current commit is pretty much always the one you
want to mark, not the selected. It's different for skipping; sometimes you know
already that a certain commit doesn't compile, for example, so you might
navigate there and mark it as skipped. So in the case that the current commit is
not the selected one, we now offer two separate menu entries for skipping, one
for the current commit and one for the selected.
This can be useful if you want to find the commit that fixed a bug (you'd use
"broken/fixed" instead of "good/bad" in this case), or if you want to find the
commit that brought a big performance improvement (use "slow/fast"). It's pretty
mind-bending to have to use "good/bad" in these cases, and swap their meanings
in your head.
Thankfully, lazygit already had support for using custom terms during the bisect
(for the case that a bisect was started on the command-line, I suppose), so all
that's needed is adding a way to specify them in lazygit.
Previously we used a single-line prompt for a tag annotation. Now we're using the commit message
prompt.
I've had to update other uses of that prompt to allow the summary and description labels to
be passed in
It said "Press tab to toggle focus", which is wrong for people who remapped
their togglePanel key binding to something else. Print the actual key binding
instead.
For consistency with the previous commit.
Note that this menu entry is used both for unstaged and for staged changes, and
for staged changes it is not quite accurate, as we are not discarding changes in
that case (just unstaging them). Not sure it's worth fixing this; it's still
better than "Delete", anyway.
The title was saying "Unstage lines", which was just wrong. The text said
"Delete lines", which can be seen as a bit misleading; we are only discarding
the changes to the selected lines, not deleting the lines themselves.
For consistency, rename the config variable skipUnstageLineWarning accordingly.
We use CommitFilesController also for the files of commits that we show
elsewhere, e.g. for branch commits, tags, or stashes. It doesn't make sense to
discard changes from those (for stashes it might be possible to implement it
somehow, but that would be a new feature), so we disallow it unless we are in
the local commits panel.
Discarding changes to an entire directory doesn't quite work correctly in all
cases; for example, if the current commit added files to the directory (but the
directory existed before) then those files won't be removed.
It might be possible to fix the command so that these cases always work for
directories, but I don't think it's worth the effort (you can always use a
custom patch for that), so let's display an error for now.
We have not been good at consistent casing so far. Now we use 'Sentence case' everywhere. EVERYWHERE.
Also Removing 'Lc' prefix from i18n field names: the 'Lc' stood for lowercase but now that everything
is in 'Sentence case' there's no need for the distinction.
I've got a couple lower case things I've kept: namely, things that show up in parentheses.
The option doesn't have any affect in these views, so we don't need to toggle it
here. But the problem was the HandleFocus call at the end: this would activate
the wrong view, so we need to avoid it here.
Show an error if the user tries to turn the option on, to let them know that it
doesn't work here.
When we use the one panel for the entire commit message, its tricky to have a keybinding both for adding a newline and submitting.
By having two panels: one for the summary line and one for the description, we allow for 'enter' to submit the message when done from the summary panel,
and 'enter' to add a newline when done from the description panel. Alt-enter, for those who can use that key combo, also works for submitting the message
from the description panel. For those who can't use that key combo, and don't want to remap the keybinding, they can hit tab to go back to the summary panel
and then 'enter' to submit the message.
We have some awkwardness in that both contexts (i.e. panels) need to appear and disappear in tandem and we don't have a great way of handling that concept,
so we just push both contexts one after the other, and likewise remove both contexts when we escape.
We already show "merge" todo entries when starting an interactive rebase with
--rebase-merges outside of lazygit. Changing the type of a merge entry to "pick"
or "edit" doesn't make sense and shouldn't be allowed. Earlier in this branch we
have started to show "update-ref" entries, these can't be changed either (they
can be moved, though).
You might argue that it should be possible to change them to "drop", but in the
case of "update-ref" this doesn't make sense either, because "drop" needs a Sha
and we don't have one here. Also, you would then be able to later change it back
to "pick", so we would have to remember that this isn't allowed for this
particular drop entry; that's messy, so just disallow all editing.
This is useful when working with stacked branches, because you can now move
"pick" entries across an update-ref command and you can tell exactly which
branch the commit will end up in.
It's also useful to spot situations where the --update-refs option didn't work
as desired. For example, if you duplicate a branch and want to rebase only one
of the branches but not the other (maybe for testing); if you have
rebase.updateRefs=true in your git config, then rebasing one branch will move
the other branch along. To solve this we'll have to introduce a way to delete
the update-ref entry (maybe by hitting backspace?); this is out of scope for
this PR, so for now users will have to type "git rebase --edit-todo" into the
custom command prompt to sort this out.
We will also have to prevent users from trying to turn update-ref commands into
other commands like "pick" or "drop"; we'll do this later in this branch.
We print this to the terminal after lazygit quits rather than showing it in a
panel at startup, so as to not annoy people too much. Hopefully it will still be
prominent enough this way.
Previously we would have tried to do the rebase, resulting in a long and
somewhat cryptic error message from git; now we check ourselves and show a less
intimidating message.
It's not so much the total number of commits that matters here, it's just
whether we are on the first one. (This includes the other condition.)
This allows us to get rid of the condition in rebase.go.
The 8.2 release of OpenSSH added support for FIDO/U2F hardware
authenticators, which manifests in being able to create new types of SSH
key, named `ecdsa-sk` nad `ed25519-sk`. This is relevant to lazygit,
as those SSH keys can be used to authorise git operations over SSH, as
well as signing git commits. Actual code changes are required for
correct support, as the authentication process for these types of keys
is different than the process for types supported previously.
When an operation requiring credentials is initialised with a U2F
authenticator-backed key, the first prompt is:
Enter PIN for ${key_type} key ${path_to_key}:
at which point the user is supposed to enter a numeric (and secret) PIN,
specific to the particular FIDO/U2F authenticator using which the SSH
keypair was generated. Upon entering the correct key, the user is
supposed to physically interact with the authenticator to confirm
presence. Sometimes this is accompanied by the following text prompt:
Confirm user presence for key ${key_type} ${key_fingerprint}
This second prompt does not always occur and it is presumed that the
user will know to perform this step even if not prompted specifically.
At this stage some authenticator devices may also begin to blink a LED
to indicate that they're waiting for input.
To facilitate lazygit's interoperability with these types of keys, add
support for the first PIN prompt, which allows "fetch", "pull", and
"push" git operations to complete.
Show a proper notification popup once an update has been installed successfully
so the user knows we're done (so far a popup is only shown if an error occurred).
The popup also reminds him to restart lazygit for the changes to take effect.
