Diving into staging or patch building from a focused main view (by
double-clicking a line, or pressing enter on the selected line) always
landed on a single-line selection. Entering the same views through the
side panel honours the UseHunkModeInStagingView config and selects the
whole hunk by default. The two ways in should agree, so that diving in
from the main view feels like the established flow.
A non-negative line index in NewState was overloaded for two intents:
clicking directly on the patch explorer view (where a single-line range
is the start of a drag) and diving in from the main view (where we want
the default select mode). Distinguish them with SelectLineInDefaultMode
on OnFocusOpts: the main-view entry points set it; the click-to-drag
path does not.
In hunk mode the selection covers the block of changes around the
clicked line. A context line has no surrounding changes, so we snap to
the next change line (as toggling hunk mode does); the clicked context
line itself is then not part of the selection.
This is a separate commit only because the branch is a throwaway
prototype; in a real history it would be folded into the commit that
introduces the focused-main-view enter behavior rather than landing on
top of it.

EscapeFromPatchExplorer re-renders the side panel's content back into the main
view and wants to land at the scroll position and selection the user had before
diving into staging/patch building. The previous version set the origin on the
next UI tick, after the placeholder had already been painted at the wrong
position, so the restore was visible as a jump.
Instead, ask the re-render itself to restore the scroll (via
ScrollToOriginYForNextTask), so the saved position is applied in the first
paint that shows the real content. The selection still needs the diff loaded
down to the selected line, so restore it via ReadToEnd once the content is
fully read; the scroll is no longer touched there.

This was already possible, but only when a file was selected, and it woudln't
always land on the right line when a pager was used. Now it's also possible to
do this for directories, and it jumps to the right line.
At the moment this is a hack that relies on delta's hyperlinks, so it only works
on lines that have hyperlinks (added and context).
The implementation is very hacky for other reasons too (e.g. the addition of the
weirdly named ClickedViewRealLineIdx to OnFocusOpts).
When loading the files of a commit we passed --no-renames, so a rename
showed up as a separate delete and add rather than a single R entry.
That made it impossible to work with a rename that also modifies the
file: the modifications were spread across a full deletion and a full
addition instead of appearing as the handful of lines that actually
changed. The staging view already shows renames and lets you stage
their hunks, so there was no good reason for the patch builder to
differ; the flag was only there because the commit-file parser couldn't
cope with the rename record format.
Switch the commit-file loader and the per-file diff to --find-renames,
teach the parser about the rename record (a status followed by two
paths), and carry the previous path through the patch builder so the
diff for a rename is loaded with both paths, which is what makes git
emit the rename in the first place.
A whole-file selection keeps the rename in the header, so the rename
moves or is discarded together with the file's contents. A partial
selection instead strips the rename metadata and points the header at
the new path, so applying the patch only changes the contents and
leaves the rename in place; the blob index line is kept so that a 3-way
apply can still fall back to a blob merge.
Discarding a renamed file from a commit now discards both the new and
the old path, so the new file is removed and the old one is restored.
Changing the rename similarity threshold refreshes the commit files
panel too, not just the files panel, so that a rename can turn into a
delete and add or back. It is disabled while building a patch, however,
because the patch builder caches each file's diff by path and would
desync if a rename changed into a delete and add underneath it.
Finally, copying a file's diff from the commit files panel now passes
both paths for a rename, so the copied diff shows the rename instead of
a new-file add.

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.
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.
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.
So far, lines in the view corresponded 1:1 to lines in the patch. Once we turn
on wrapping for the staging view (which we don't do yet), this is no longer
true, so we need to convert from view lines to patch lines or vice versa all
over the place.
We make the name of the GetSelectedRefRangeForDiffFiles very specific on purpose
to make it clear that this is only for switching to diff files, so the
implementations can make assumptions about that (unlike GetSelectedRef, which is
used for different purposes and needs to stay more generic).
Several custom patch commands on parts of an added file would fail with the
confusing error message "error: new file XXX depends on old contents". These
were dropping the custom patch from the original commit, moving the patch to a
new commit, moving it to a later commit, or moving it to the index.
We fix this by converting the patch header from an added file to a diff against
an empty file. We do this not just for the purpose of applying the patch, but
also for rendering it and copying it to the clip board. I'm not sure it matters
much in these cases, but it does feel more correct for a filtered patch to be
presented this way.
We're going to add another argument in the next commit, and that's getting a bit
much, especially when most of the arguments are bool and you only see true and
false at the call sites without knowing what they mean.
It's not possible to reliably stage things into a custom patch when "ignore
whitespace" is on, so always treat it as off here (like we do in the staging
panel).
It looks like this is a regression that was introduced in 8edad826ca.
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
