git makes `rev-parse --show-toplevel` fatal when there's no work tree,
so asking for it together with everything else meant we never got an
answer at all for a bare repo: GetRepoPaths returned an error, nobody
ever saw IsBareRepo() == true, and lazygit either died with a stack
trace or decided we weren't in a repository. That's what you got for
opening it in a directory holding a bare repo and a .git file pointing
at it, which is a normal way to keep a repo and its worktrees together.
Ask again without --show-toplevel when the first query fails: the other
queries work fine without a work tree, so if they now succeed we know
we're in a bare repo, and the existing prompt offering to open a recent
repo does its job. If they fail too we're not in a repo at all, and the
first error already says so.
--is-bare-repository is gone from the query: a work tree implies
core.bare is false, so it could only ever come back false there, and
what matters to us is whether there is a work tree to show, which is
what we now go by.

"does not yet support" reads as a promise that it will, but it's quite
likely that it never will.

onNewRepo also runs when switching repos, and a failure there leaves us
in the repo we came from — with a nil GitCommand, which nothing else is
prepared for. Only assign once we have one.

RepoPath() is meant to be the same as WorktreePath() when we're in the
main worktree, but we derived it from the git dir's location instead.
That is only the same thing when the git dir lives inside the work tree.
With core.worktree, --work-tree, or a .git file pointing at a repo dir
that isn't called .git, it lands on a directory that isn't a worktree at
all, and the repo name we show follows it there.
A worktree that has the repo's common git dir to itself is the main
worktree, so use its path. That subsumes the submodule case, whose git
dir lives under the superproject's .git/modules but is still the
submodule's own common dir; --show-superproject-working-tree is now only
needed for a linked worktree of a submodule.
The existing bare repo test asserted a git output that can't occur (a
work tree and --is-bare-repository=true at once), but the rest of it is
the shape of a repo opened with --git-dir/--work-tree, where the new
repo path is the correct one.

When the work tree lives somewhere else entirely — set up with
core.worktree or --work-tree — we're still in the main worktree, so
RepoPath() should be the work tree, as its own doc comment says. Instead
we derive it from the git dir's location, which lands somewhere that
isn't a worktree at all, and the repo name follows it.
The ACTUAL lines are indented as they will be once the EXPECTED ones
replace them, rather than as gofumpt wants them while the comment
markers are still splitting the struct's alignment. That leaves this one
file not gofumpt-clean until the next commit, in exchange for a diff
there that shows only the lines that actually change.

`git worktree list` reports the main worktree as the common git dir with
a trailing "/.git" removed, which equals the working tree only when the
git dir sits inside it. In a submodule, a bare repo, or a repo using
core.worktree it doesn't, so comparing the reported path against the
working tree path matches nothing: no worktree is recognized as current
or as main. Most visibly, inside a submodule lazygit claimed we were in
a linked worktree named after the submodule, and offered to remove that
"worktree".
Comparing git dirs identifies a worktree unambiguously, so use that.
A worktree whose directory is gone has no git dir to compare, and there
we still have nothing better than its path.
The submodule tests were asserting the linked-worktree suffix in the
status view; it is gone now, and the repo name still says which
submodule we're in.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A submodule's git dir doesn't live inside its working tree, and `git
worktree list` reports it by its git dir. Lazygit compares that against
the working tree path, so it recognizes neither the current nor the main
worktree, and the UI ends up claiming we're in a linked worktree.

PipeCommands ran every command in its own goroutine, each doing
Start/read-stderr/Wait, with nothing ordering one goroutine's Start
against another's Wait. That ordering matters: StdoutPipe registers the
parent's read end in cmd.parentIOPipes, and Cmd.Wait closes those
descriptors when it returns. The next command's Stdin is that very
*os.File, and exec passes a user-supplied *os.File through untouched, so
Start hands the child whatever the fd happens to be at that moment. If
the producer finished and got reaped before the consumer's goroutine
reached Start, that fd was already closed, File.Fd() returned -1, and
the child was started with fd 0 closed -- reading nothing at all.
The only caller is the pre-2.35 fallback in SaveStagedChanges, which
pipes `git stash show -p` into `git apply -R`. Losing that race left
git apply with an empty patch, so it failed with "unrecognized input",
the following `git stash drop` never ran, and the user was left with a
stray stash entry. This turned up as a flaky stash/stash_staged on the
git 2.32.0 CI job; the newer-git jobs take the `git stash push --staged`
path and never reach this code.
Starting every command up front removes the race, and collecting stderr
into buffers lets exec's own copying goroutines do the work. That also
fixes two lesser problems in the same function: finalErrors was appended
to from several goroutines without synchronization, and a failed Start
was only logged, so a pipeline that never ran reported success.

The commit list a filtering mode change leaves behind has nothing to do
with the one that was showing, so the scroll position it inherits says
nothing about where the selection ended up, and the selection can land
anywhere off screen. PostRefreshUpdate only moves the cursor within the
existing scroll position, so ask for the scroll separately, the way the
commits refresh does when it moves the selection itself.
Exiting filtering mode looked like it worked, but only by accident: the
commits refresh recognizes the commit that was selected before it ran,
selects it again at its new index, and scrolls because the index moved.
That does nothing for the case where the commit is gone from the list, or
for entering filtering mode, where we select the first commit ourselves.
Entering or leaving filtering mode switched the screen mode and the
focused panel immediately, then reloaded the commit list in the
background. The result was an unfiltered list presented in the layout
that says "you are filtering", with nothing to say that anything was
still happening — and in a big repo that state can last seconds.
Before we stopped blocking the UI thread on refreshes, the reload
happened before any of it, so the two always agreed; the price was a
frozen UI for the duration.
Do neither: reload on a worker, so the UI stays live, and hold back
everything the user can see of the change until the new lists are ready,
so they still land together in one frame. A waiting status says what is
going on in the meantime, and blocking input means the keys pressed while
it runs arrive after the change rather than acting on a list that is
about to be replaced.
Setting a filter and clearing it are the same transition in opposite
directions: mutate the mode, bring the screen mode in line with it,
reload the views that depend on the filter, and put the selection
somewhere sensible in the reloaded commit list. They were implemented
twice, once in the filtering menu and once in ModeHelper, which is how
the two came to repaint the commit list in different ways.
Derive the screen mode and the panel switch from whether a filter is
active after the change, so both directions fall out of the same code,
and give ModeHelper the entry points for both. The filtering menu is
left with nothing but the menu.
Blocking keyboard input and hiding the working tree state mode are two
separate concerns; they were fused into one helper because every caller
so far wanted both. A caller that blocks input for something other than a
rebase would then hide the "Rebasing" indicator for the duration of its
operation, which has nothing to do with it.
Make it an explicit option instead, so blocking input on its own doesn't
imply anything about the modes on display.
The mode it suppresses is active for any working tree state, not just a
rebase: merging, cherry-picking and reverting show through the same
indicator. Name it after what it hides.
Whether a graph can be drawn was read from the filtering mode, while the
graph itself is drawn over the commit list in the model. Those two only
agree once the list has been reloaded for the new mode, and a filtering
mode change reloads the list in the background, so in between we can be
asked to draw a graph over a list the graph makes no sense for.
That is not just cosmetic. Commits in a filtered list are almost never
each other's parents, so no pipe ever terminates: the pipe set grows by
one per row and every continuing pipe rescans it, which is cubic in the
length of the list. Escaping out of filtering mode with a filtered list
of 13000 commits — as you get once the 300 commit limit has been lifted,
which happens for good as soon as the selection passes COMMIT_THRESHOLD
— wedges the UI thread for around twenty minutes.
Record whether the list was loaded with a filter, right where the list
itself is stored, and decide from that. The graph now also stays up while
the pre-change list is still on display, rather than vanishing a moment
before the list it belongs to.
A failing setup step called Shell.fail, which panicked. Tests run as
parallel subtests, so that panic aborted the entire test binary: one bad
fixture cost us the results of all ~500 tests, and the failure was
reported as a stack trace rather than against the test that caused it.
Keep panicking to skip the remaining setup steps -- they would only
produce follow-on failures -- but recover in createFixture and return the
message as that test's error. All three clients already propagate an
error from a test, so they report it the way they report any other
failure.
The pty teardown in Close runs on a background goroutine that doesn't
get to finish when lazygit is quitting: the process exits milliseconds
after the view buffer managers are closed. The job objects still cover
the clients -- KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE reaps them when the process's handles
are rundown at exit -- but nothing reaps the conhost, so on Windows
builds whose conhost fails to run down on its own, quitting leaks one
conhost per live pty.
This is not a rare timing window: a diff longer than what has been
read keeps its git process (and thus its pty and conhost) running for
the entire time it is displayed, so that scrolling can read more.
Quitting while looking at a long diff is therefore the common case,
and with an external differ configured it leaks a conhost on affected
builds on almost every quit.
Fix this by having the gui's shutdown path wait synchronously for the
in-flight teardowns after closing the view buffer managers. A quit
signal makes the teardowns skip the conhost rundown wait -- the
conhost serves nothing once its clients are dead, and the exit must
not stall for its sake -- so the wait normally completes in
milliseconds, keeping quit as fast as before; a 2-second cap protects
the exit path even if a teardown wedges.

A pseudoconsole's conhost.exe is spawned by CreatePseudoConsole as a
child of lazygit, so it is not part of the job object that the pty
teardown kills. That is normally fine: a healthy conhost runs itself
down once the reference handle is closed and its clients are gone. But
conhost builds before the ConPTY overhaul that shipped with Windows 11
24H2 (confirmed on 23H2, build 22631) fail to complete the rundown
when a client attached after the close event was delivered and was
then killed -- the fate of exactly the clients the job kill exists for
-- and such a conhost lingers forever with no clients, at a rate of
about one per five fast commit navigations. These builds remain
widespread: all of Windows 10 (whose ESU tail runs into 2028, and
whose hardware often cannot run Windows 11 at all) plus pre-24H2
Windows 11 fleets.
Since Windows offers no way to obtain the conhost's pid or handle from
the HPCON, identify it by diffing lazygit's direct conhost children
around the CreatePseudoConsole call, serialized by a mutex so that two
concurrently starting ptys can't confuse each other's diff, and open a
handle immediately so that pid reuse is harmless. The teardown then
gives conhost a second to exit on its own before terminating it; on
healthy builds the wait succeeds and the reap never fires. If the
conhost can't be identified unambiguously, we simply don't reap, which
is no worse than before.

Stopping a pty task on Windows relies on ClosePseudoConsole, which
delivers CTRL_CLOSE_EVENT to the console's attached clients. But only
to those attached at that moment: when the user flicks quickly through
commits, a task is often stopped within the first few milliseconds of
its life, before the child has attached to the pseudoconsole. Such a
child misses the event and survives, running the entire diff to
completion in the background (spawning one external differ per changed
file) and keeping its conhost.exe alive; rapid navigation accumulates
these git/difft/conhost trees, and they outlive lazygit. Grandchildren
are affected too: git for Windows runs commands through a two-level
git.exe wrapper, so a single task has several attach windows, and a
grandchild spawned while the console is going down is orphaned even
when its parent got the event and exited.
Fix this by putting the child into a job object before it runs its
first instruction (created suspended, assigned, then resumed), so that
every descendant is in the job from the start; the teardown in Close
terminates the job right after initiating the pseudoconsole close.
There is no point in a grace period between the two: the close event
is not a graceful signal -- git and the common diff tools leave it to
the default handler, which calls ExitProcess at an arbitrary point --
so clients that received it are already dying, and the kill exists for
those that missed it. Killing at an arbitrary point cannot leak a
stale index.lock, because pty-rendered commands no longer take that
lock (see withPtyGitConfig in pkg/gui/pty.go).
The pseudoconsole close runs on its own goroutine because the kill
must not wait for it: on builds where ClosePseudoConsole blocks until
the console host exits (pre-24H2), the host keeps running as long as a
surviving client does, and that client only goes away through the job
kill; sequencing the kill after a blocking close would deadlock in
exactly the case the kill exists for.
KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE doubles as a safety net: if lazygit exits without
running the teardown, the OS closes the job handle and reaps the tree.
In a harness that mimicked the stop path with randomized 0-120ms stop
delays, 3 of 30 process trees survived as orphans before this change;
none survive with it.

The task stop path terminates the still-running command by pulling its
*os.Process out of the Cmd interface and applying one global strategy
(TerminateProcessGracefully) to it. That shape can't accommodate the
upcoming fix for orphaned process trees on Windows: there, stopping a
pty task requires terminating the entire process tree via a job object
whose handle lives with the pty, not with the process. And the two Cmd
implementations genuinely need different strategies anyway: a
process-group kill (the likely future fix for #5675 on Unix) is only
safe for pty children, which run as session leaders, while plain
commands share lazygit's own process group.
So let each Cmd implementation decide how to terminate itself, and drop
GetProcess, which had no other callers. No change in behavior.

At the end of a diff against the worktree, git re-reads and refreshes
the index and writes it back if it found stale stat information
(diff.autoRefreshIndex, on by default). It holds index.lock for the
whole refresh; GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS does not cover this lock, and the
window scales with the size of the repository (~150ms for a 6k-file
repository with a warm stat cache).
On Windows, a pty task that is stopped because the user moved on
terminates its git process at an arbitrary point: tearing down the
pseudoconsole delivers CTRL_CLOSE_EVENT, which git leaves to the
default handler, which simply calls ExitProcess. If that lands inside
the refresh, a stale index.lock is left behind and the next git
command chokes on it. This is the same problem that 98801da106 fixed
by no longer killing git processes; the ConPTY support added in 0.63
reintroduced it through the close event.
Disable the automatic refresh for pty-rendered commands. They can
afford it: the refresh only persists refreshed stat information, and
lazygit's foreground git status refreshes -- which never run in a pty
and are never killed -- already write that back on every user action
and on terminal focus-in. The cost is that while the on-disk stat
cache is stale, an external differ is invoked even for files whose
stat information changed but whose content didn't, showing them as
empty diffs; this heals with the next foreground refresh, which also
re-renders the view.
Unix keeps the refresh: a stopped pty child gets SIGTERM there, and
git's signal handlers remove its lock files, so the lock window is
harmless. The rawGit renderer keeps it too: its tasks don't run in a
pty and are never killed on Windows -- they either run to completion
or die on a broken pipe mid-output, before the refresh begins.

We already excluded the most commonly used commit trailers from being
auto-wrapped when typing or rewording a commit message, but this was
limited to two hard-coded ones ("Signed-off-by:" and "Co-authored-by:").
Extend this mechanism to use a heuristic to prevent more trailers from
wrapping; the heuristic kicks in for any "Key: Value" line if Key
contains a dash, or the value looks like a URL (so that it also catches
things like "Bug: https://my-bug-tracker/345").
To avoid mistaking a "Key: Value"-looking line in the message body for a
trailer, only apply the heuristic in the last paragraph of the message,
i.e. the block of lines at the end that is separated from the body by a
blank line. Each line there is judged on its own, so a line that isn't
recognized as a trailer still wraps without affecting the real trailers
next to it.
Having the cache in state.yml causes this file to be rewritten every
60s, which is annoying if you have a lazygit running in the background
somewhere without even realizing it, and it keeps overwriting the
foreground lazygit's newer command shell history and recent repos list
with its stale data. State.yml should only contain things that change in
response to user actions, not periodically.
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.
GitHub exposes a combined status for the head commit without requiring
individual check contexts. Include that rollup in the existing request
and startup cache so every consumer sees the same state without making a
second network request.
The fetch currently combines transport, JSON decoding, and model
conversion, which makes response changes difficult to verify without
exercising the network. Put the deterministic work behind a small parser
so later payload changes can be covered with raw GraphQL fixtures.
For a long time lazygit has used the term "custom pager" to refer to
what's really a "diff renderer". A pager is a program that allows you to
view output page by page (hence the name), e.g. less; lazygit's custom
diff renderers are not pagers. It used the term only because the feature
is implemented using git's GIT_PAGER env var, but that's an
implementation detail.
Rename the 'git.pagers' config to 'git.diffRenderers', and restructure
its elements while we're at it to make things clearer:
- Add a 'type' field to explicitly specify which type of diff renderer
it is (the two fundamentally different ones are 'stdinFilter' and
'extDiff').
- Add a third type, 'rawGit', which has an 'args' field that makes it
easy to use 'git --color-words' as a custom renderer
- Unify the old 'pager' and 'externalDiffCommand' fields to a single
'command' field for both types
Existing config files are migrated automatically.
It doesn't matter for what this test used to test (that nothing changes
if the 'pagers' array exists), but it will be relevant once we further
migrate the 'pagers' array from there.
We don't want callers to need any additional logic, so pass in the
translation set so that the function can decide what static text to
return. This allows us to get rid of the CurrentPagerUsesGitConfigDiff
method which is in the way for the refactoring we're about to do.
It has served its purpose when config migration was initially
implemented, but nobody runs this benchmark nowadays, and the example
config has run out of date with reality. Some PRs have still updated it
when they made changes to the config, but others didn't, and it's
unclear what the rules are; so let's just remove it.
Moving commits runs a rebase, which can take a while. Instead of
letting the drop indicator vanish the moment the button is released,
keep it in place and turn it into a "moving commits here" spinner once
the move takes longer than a short grace period, so that quick moves
stay free of flicker. The indicator is cleared when the post-move
refresh lands.
While a commit drag is in progress, escape now aborts it: the drag
state and the drop indicator are discarded and the mouse capture is
released, so nothing happens when the button is eventually released.
Otherwise escape keeps its normal meaning.
Reuse the drag autoscroller for commit drags. Scrolling stops once the
insertion point reaches the end of the allowed range in the scroll
direction, so during a rebase the view doesn't keep scrolling once the
last insertion position among the todos has been reached.
Pressing the left button on the current selection now starts a drag
that moves the selected commits, both in the normal commits view and
for todos during an interactive rebase. A press anywhere else falls
through to the usual click handling, so dragging from an unselected
line still creates a range selection, and releasing without having
moved collapses the selection to the pressed commit like a plain click
would.
While dragging, the insertion point follows the pointer: rows below
the dragged block insert after the pointed-at commit, rows above it
insert before it, and during a rebase the destination is limited to
the contiguous block of movable todos around the selection. gocui
moves the view cursor along with the pointer, so each drag event moves
it back to keep the original selection highlighted.
The move happens on release. The model may have been refreshed during
the drag, so the dragged commits are located again by their identity
(hash, subject, todo action); if they no longer form a unique
contiguous block, the drop is ignored rather than guessing.
Render the insertion point of a commit drag as a non-model item in the
commits list. It must be inserted at the right position relative to
the section headers, because the list renderer assumes non-model items
are ordered by their model index.
Not used yet, we'll hook it up to the drag gesture in the next commit.
Let the todo-move primitives take a distance instead of hardcoding a
single row, by iterating the one-row move in memory. Dropping a commit
several rows away thus rewrites the todo file once and, outside of an
interactive rebase, runs a single rebase rather than one per row.
Merge the up/down variants of the move commands into one
direction-parameterized implementation. Dragging commits is about to
need moves over arbitrary distances, which we don't want to build twice.
Give the list views the same edge autoscroll during drag selection
that the staging view already has; the new mouse-release binding stops
the autoscroll when the drag ends.
Dragging with the left button held now extends the selection from the
pressed line, exactly like moving with shift+up/down does. We use the
non-sticky flavor so that the range collapses on the next plain cursor
movement, again matching the keyboard behavior.
The binding is only registered for contexts that support range selection
in the first place; dragging in other lists continues to do nothing.
When the pointer reaches the edge of the view during a drag (or leaves
the view entirely, which mouse capture makes possible), keep scrolling
and extending the selection: slowly on the innermost edge row, faster
on the outermost row, and very fast beyond. Scrolling starts after a
short delay so that a drag merely passing near the edge doesn't scroll.
When the view loses focus mid-drag (e.g. because a popup appeared),
cancel the autoscroll and the mouse capture.
Add press/move/release primitives next to the existing Click. The test
driver remembers the last reported position so a release doesn't have
to repeat the coordinates, and RepeatMouseMove lets a test verify that
a held-button motion event within the same cell has no effect.
Route all mouse events to the view that was under the pointer when the
left button was pressed, until the button is released. Previously each
event went to whatever view was under the pointer at the time, so a
drag that left the view's bounds started acting on neighboring views.
Since events can now carry positions outside the view, clamp the view
cursor to the view's bounds in that case (handlers still receive the
unclamped position), and require an actual click for tab activation so
that a captured drag crossing the tab row doesn't switch tabs.
Releasing a mouse button was delivered as a plain mouse-move (hover)
event: the release processing resets dragState to NOT_DRAGGING, after
which the event fell into the NOT_DRAGGING branch. Views therefore had
no way of telling that a drag gesture ended, which the upcoming
drag-based features (range selection, commit reordering) need.
Deliver the release as a real mouse event with the MouseRelease key
and normalize its modifiers to ModNone, so release bindings also match
modified drags. Make recordClickInfo ignore it: a release is the end of
a click, not a click of its own, and must not break double-click
detection.
