The filter input is where the keyboard points for as long as such a menu
is open, so that the first printable key can go straight into it. The menu
still gets every key the input doesn't take, because the input view is
embedded in the menu view, and the two are drawn as one focused panel.
Which keys the input takes changes once there is a filter: until then
printable keys still drive the menu, so that the configured navigation
keys work as usual, and afterwards they are all filter text. A menu item's
own keys are never bound in such a menu, because typing one has to reach
the filter rather than execute the item.
Escape gives up the filter and leaves the menu open; the next one closes
it. The filter prompt behind '/' is gone from these menus: the row already
does that job, and a second filter would only be confusing.

Nothing shows or positions them yet. The row is two views because the
input field has to start after the "Filter:" prompt, and a gocui view is
a rectangle: the frame view draws the row and the prompt, the field sits
inside it.

The tab-assignment loop only ever set a view's tabs; it never cleared them.
That was fine when the groupings were fixed, but with gui.sidePanels a
config reload can turn a tab into a standalone panel, and the old tab strip
would linger on its title. Index the tab strips by view name and assign to
every view, so views that dropped out of a multi-tab panel get their tabs
cleared. No change for a given config; this only matters across a reload.

These two views only ever appeared as tabs (of the files and commits
panels), so unlike the other side views they had no title set; the tab
strip supplied their label. Once a tab can be promoted to its own panel
they can appear without a tab strip, so set their titles like the others.
This has no effect in the default layout, where both are always tabs.

Replace the hard-coded side panel order, tab groupings, and window
assignments with values resolved from the gui.sidePanels config. The panel
order (SideWindows and the layout boxes), the tab strips (viewTabMap), the
per-context window names, each window's default view, and the jump-label
groups all now come from the config rather than from five separate
hard-coded lists.
A panel's window name is the name of its first tab, and panels not listed
in the config get their own window name so their views stay hidden instead
of overlapping a visible panel. Three small lookups translate config names
into views, tab titles, and contexts; a test keeps them in sync with the
set of valid names. The lookups are split this way (rather than one
resolver) because configureViewProperties runs before the context tree
exists, so the title/view lookups must not depend on it.
The config is applied to a repo's contexts via applySidePanelConfig on
every repo entry, including the cached-repo path: a repo's per-repo config
can differ from the previously visited one's, so each repo's contexts must
be (re)assigned from its own config rather than kept from when they were
first built.
With the default config this reproduces today's layout exactly.

The jump-label prefixes were assigned to each side view by name, twice
(once for the on case, once for off), so the panel-to-views grouping and
the panel order were baked into 28 positional statements. Express the
grouping once as a slice of view groups and loop over it, deriving each
panel's label from its index. The label lookup is now bounds-checked, so
it no longer assumes exactly as many jump bindings as panels. Behavior is
unchanged; this prepares the grouping to come from config.

JumpToBlock is special: each of its 5 elements is the binding for one side
window (status / files / branches / commits / stash), not an alternate for a
single command. Change the field from []string to []Keybinding so each window
slot can have alternates of its own.
The schema becomes "an array of 5 keybindings, each itself a string or array of
strings", which falls out cleanly from how the Keybinding type inlines into the
generated schema. Existing configs (a flat array of 5 strings) keep validating
because each element is unmarshalled through Keybinding's scalar-or-sequence
decoder.
Until now every keybinding config field was a plain string. That meant a user
couldn't ask for two keys to invoke a command — the config silently accepted
only one form.
Convert every string-typed field across all 13 KeybindingXxxConfig structs to
Keybinding so the union type extends to every command. Defaults wrap their
single-key value in Keybinding{...} so the generated Config.md still renders one
scalar key per binding.
The alt fields keep their separate Binding registrations for now: this commit
does not yet introduce the merge mechanism that folds them into the main field —
that comes in a follow-up. Consumers previously calling opts.GetKeys on a string
field now call opts.GetKeys on the Keybinding, or take .String() / Keys[0] where
a single value is needed.
Adds a Keybinding.String helper for rendering, schema-generator work that
inlines the Keybinding union into each consuming property, and a unit test
covering the user-facing scalar/sequence YAML forms for quit.
I copied all files except dot files (.github and .gitignore), the _examples
folder, and go.mod/go.sum.
At some point we may want to copy the files back to the gocui repo when other
clients (e.g. lazydocker) want to use the newer versions of them.
This brings in https://github.com/jesseduffield/gocui/pull/98 with the following
fix:
Fix rendering of CRLF sequence ('\r\n')
The FirstGraphemeCluster call returns this as a single character; we want to
treat it the same way as a single \n.
This would be a problem if e.g. a progress bar used \r repeatedly to paint over
the same line, and then printed a \n to move on to the next line; the last pair
of \r and \n was swallowed.
Another scenario where this was a problem was if you stream output of a command
to the log, and the command used \r\n as line feeds. This happens for example
for a background fetch that fails with an error; in that case we print the
combined output (stdout plus stderr) to the log after the command finished, and
for some reason it uses \r\n in that case (I can't actually explain why; when I
do `git fetch --all | xxd` I see only bare \n characters). All output would
appear on one line then.
Also, filter out escape sequences for character set designation; there's nothing
useful we can do with them. In practice, the only one that you are likely to see
is `ESC ( B`, which is sent as part of tput sgr0, which is sometimes used in
scripts to reset all graphics attributes to defaults.
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.
We show it only if the "showPanelJumps" config is on, although the
focus-main-view command is not technically part of the panel jump keys; but it
looks similar.
Adaptions are for this gocui commit:
Cleanup: remove Is* error functions
- Use errors.Is instead of quality comparisons. This is better because it
matches wrapped errors as well, which we will need later in this branch.
- Inline the errors.Is calls at the call sites. This is idiomatic go, we don't
need helper functions for this.
See https://go.dev/blog/go1.13-errors for more about this.
Note that this doesn't only affect the diff views, which are the ones where we
want this, but also the status view, where the plan was to keep them underlined
always for better discoverability. We could make this configurable dynamically
(by adding another flag to ViewUpdateOpts), but actually I think it's fine this
way.
Split it so createAllViews instanciates the views, and sets those properties
that are independent of the user config, and configureViewProperties which sets
those things that do depend on the user config. For now we call the second right
after the first, but later we'll call configureViewProperties after reloading
the user config.
An inactive selection is one where the view is part of the context stack, but
not the active view. For example, the files view when you enter the staging
panel, or any view when you open a panel.
As part of making lazygit more discoverable, there are certain keys which you almost certainly
need to press when you're in a given mode e.g. 'v' to paste commits when cherry-picking. This
commit prominently shows these keybinding suggestions alongside the others in the option view.
I'm using the same colours for these keybindings as is associated with the mode elsewhere e.g.
yellow for rebasing and cyan for cherry-picking. The cherry-picking one is a bit weird because
we also use cyan text to show loaders and app status at the bottom left so it may be confusing,
but I haven't personally found it awkward from having tested it out myself.
Previously we would render these options whenever a new context was activated, but now that we
need to re-render options whenever a mode changes, I'm instead rendering them on each screen
re-render (i.e. in the layout function). Given how cheap it is to render this text, I think
it's fine performance-wise.
We're not fully standardising here: different contexts can store their range state however
they like. What we are standardising on is that now the view is always responsible for
highlighting the selected lines, meaning the context/controller needs to tell the view
where the range start is.
Two convenient benefits from this change:
1) we no longer need bespoke code in integration tests for asserting on selected lines because
we can just ask the view
2) line selection in staging/patch-building/merge-conflicts views now look the same as in
list views i.e. the highlight applies to the whole line (including trailing space)
I also noticed a bug with merge conflicts not rendering the selection on focus though I suspect
it wasn't a bug with any real consequences when the view wasn't displaying the selection.
I'm going to scrap the selectedRangeBgColor config and just let it use the single line
background color. Hopefully nobody cares, but there's really no need for an extra config.
We are also removing the single-character padding on the left/right edges of the bottom
line because it's unnecessary
Unfortunately we need to create views for each spacer: it's not enough to just
layout the existing views with padding inbetween because gocui only renders
views meaning if there is no view in a given position, that position will just
render whatever was there previously (at least that's what I recall from talking
this through with Stefan: I could be way off).

It sounds like at some point we only showed a slash as the search prompt, but I
dug a bit through the history and couldn't find a state of the code where that
was the case. (shrug)
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.
When opening lazygit with `lazygit log` the worktrees view was appearing in front of the files view.
This is because it had higher precedence than the files view in the ordered view mapping, and
that was because it originally was in the branches window so it was further down the list.
The reason this didn't cause issues on typical startup is that the files context is activated at the
start so it is brought to the front.
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.
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.
Given that we now persist search/filter states even after a side context loses focus, we need to make it really
clear to the user that the context is currently being searched/filtered
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.
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.
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
There are two reasons for doing this:
1. The view cursor position is often out of sync with the selected line; see
first commit of this branch.
2. The highlighting is already turned off when the view loses focus, and never
turned back on thereafter. So just turn it off from the start then.
