The version choice is a little arbitrary, but see discussion at
https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/pull/4559#issuecomment-2876201680.
The main reason why I'm updating the version now is that versions before 2.27
had a bug with branch sorting, where sorting by -committerdate (which will be
our default soon) would sort branches that point at the same commit in reverse
alphabetical order rather than alphabetical order. While this is only slightly
annoying but not a huge deal for users, it makes maintaining our integration
tests across versions very hard. So I wanted to update to at least 2.27 to get
around this problem, and went with 2.32 after the discussion linked to above.
The choice of which versions to run integration tests on is pretty arbitrary
too, I just picked some at random which are about 5 to 6 minor versions apart.
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.

This allows having per-repo config files with different languages per repo. Now
granted, this is not an important use case that we need to support; however, the
goal is to eventually make all configs hot-reloadable (as opposed to loading
them only once at startup), so this is one step in that direction.
This change reduces the number of calls during application startup to
one, calling GetRepoPaths() earlier than previously and plumbing the
repoPaths struct around to achieve this end.
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.
Afero is a package that lets you mock out a filesystem with an in-memory filesystem.
It allows us to easily create the files required for a given test without worrying about
a cleanup step or different tests tripping on eachother when run in parallel.
Later on I'll standardise on using afero over the vanilla os package
I don't know why we were setting the initial context to CurrentSideContext
and not just CurrentContext in the first place. If there is no current context
in either case it'll default to the files context. So the only issue is if
we anticipated that some random context would be focused and we didn't want to
activate that. But I can't think of any situation where that would happen.
I'll be honest, for all I know logging should be global in general: it is
a pain to pass a logger to any struct that needs it. But smart people on the
internet tell me otherwise, and I do like the idea of not having any global
variables lying around.
Nonetheless, I often need to log things when locally debugging and that's a
different kind of logging than the kind you would include in the actual
released binary. For example if I want to log something from gocui, I would
rather not have gocui depend on lazygit's logging setup.
By constructing an arg vector manually, we no longer need to quote arguments
Mandate that args must be passed when building a command
Now you need to provide an args array when building a command.
There are a handful of places where we need to deal with a string,
such as with user-defined custom commands, and for those we now require
that at the callsite they use str.ToArgv to do that. I don't want
to provide a method out of the box for it because I want to discourage its
use.
For some reason we were invoking a command through a shell when amending a
commit, and I don't believe we needed to do that as there was nothing user-
supplied about the command. So I've switched to using a regular command out-
side the shell there
This begins a big refactor of moving more code out of the Gui struct into contexts, controllers, and helpers. We also move some code into structs in the
gui package purely for the sake of better encapsulation
