Coordinate local conflict resolutions with automated push and provider-
side merge status checks. When a local resolution completes the app
advances the merge workflow, pushes the updated branch, and attempts to
continue the merge. The UI shows a checking state and disables relevant
actions while the provider rechecks to prevent duplicate operations.
This streamlines finishing conflict resolution and keeps PR status in
sync with remote providers.
- Automatically push and continue merge when local resolutions finish
- Poll provider for updated mergeability and refresh request details
- Add guards to disable UI actions while waiting for remote status
Add a local conflict resolution workflow that allows resolving PR
merge conflicts from the review center. The change implements host and
repository matching, prepares and merges branches locally, opens the
resolve editor, and tracks a multi-phase state machine to continue,
abort, or push the resolved branch back to the remote.
- Core resolution logic to locate matching repos, prepare merges,
and manage phases (preparing → conflicts → ready-to-push → complete).
- UI wiring and callbacks to start, reopen, continue, abort, and push
local resolutions from the review center.
- Helpers to open the conflict editor, monitor merge state, and mark
completion after a successful push.
Add pull request badges to the repository dashboard and enable deep-
linking to the Review Center with a repository and source pre-filter.
Badges are populated by resolving remotes, matching them to configured
integration sources, and querying providers for open PRs while handling
loading, error, and unavailable states. The dashboard badge opens the
Review Center pre-filled and the app stores initial query/source values
to support the deep-link.
- Resolve and normalize remotes to match integration sources reliably.
- Query provider APIs using stored credentials with sensible timeouts.
- Expose a badge action that navigates to the Review Center pre-filtered.
Add a cross-provider Review Center and improve credential handling.
Backend integrations fetch and normalize PRs from GitHub, GitLab,
Gitea, and Azure DevOps with improved timeouts and parsing. Credentials
now use a global lock and support secret-tool on Linux to avoid races.
- Normalize review data across providers (GitHub/GitLab/Gitea/Azure)
- Serialize credential access with OnceLock and use secret-tool on Linux
- Add frontend ReviewCenter component and related UI updates
Add interactive Git bisect support to the Tauri backend and UI.
Introduce BisectState and BisectCommit types for structured state.
Expose Tauri commands to query, start, mark, and reset sessions.
Add parsers, unit tests, and a Bisect dialog with toolbar and App wiring.
- Backend: new Tauri commands, state types, and helpers to parse bisect.
- Frontend: Bisect dialog, toolbar entry, and App integration to control flow.
Move the inline repository management UI into a new RepositoryDashboard component
and wire it into the application. Refactor app state to compute a reactive
dashboardRepos list and update tab-closing logic so tabs can be closed while
preserving the management view when appropriate.
- Add a full dashboard with search, categories, workspaces and persisted prefs.
- Refactor close behavior to support keeping the management view open.
- Improve UI/CSS and accessibility for the management tab (compact layout and label).
Introduce a modal dialog to configure and confirm branch merges. It
replaces the old prompt-based workflow and lets users choose a merge
strategy with localized labels. Confirming the dialog runs the merge,
refreshes views, and clears the pending merge target.
- Add a merge dialog UI with strategy options and keyboard support.
- Replace prompt-based merge flow with a state-driven confirm dialog.
- Include CSS for dialog layout, responsive sizing, and styling.
Add a modal dialog to initialize a new Git repository, replacing the
previous prompt-based flow. It integrates with the app state and invokes
the initialization operation then opens the repository on confirmation.
Also adds styles, keyboard handling, accessibility hints, a folder
browser, initial-branch input, and German/English labels with busy state.
- New dialog component with folder picker, branch input, and i18n.
- Wire dialog open/close and confirm handler to init and open actions.
- Add CSS rules for dialog layout, controls, and error/busy states.
Add advanced clone options support across the frontend and backend.
Users can specify a branch, shallow limits, blobless mode, sparse paths,
and custom clone flags when initiating a clone operation. The backend
validates inputs, parses custom flags without invoking a shell, and
configures sparse checkouts after a successful clone. A small parsing
dependency was added and tracked-file parsing was improved to better
handle git ls-files output.
- Introduce CloneRunOptions and validation helpers for clone inputs
- Parse custom flags with a shell-like tokenizer and block managed flags
- Support sparse checkout configuration and shallow clone constraints
Allow pulling repositories with unrelated commit histories when the user
explicitly opts in. The pull argument construction was refactored and
branch resolution made more robust so the backend can include the
--allow-unrelated-histories flag when requested.
- Extract pull argument logic and add support for allowing unrelated histories.
- Prompt users in the UI to confirm merging separate histories and retry pull.
- Restyle and improve the update toast UI for better layout and responsiveness.
Remove local on-device model support and related IPC commands,
consolidating commit-generation to cloud providers and simplifying the
AI crate surface. Local-specific types, generation profiles, caching,
and the local prompt builder were removed while message sanitization and
diff-echo detection were preserved. Also harden repository handling and
runtime: unborn HEADs are handled gracefully so empty repos still report
files, Git LFS sync is skipped for repositories without commits, and
tokio runtime features were enabled.
- Remove local model engine, load/status commands, and local profile code
- Handle unborn HEAD and skip LFS sync for repos without commits
- Enable tokio runtime features and route AI generation to cloud only
Add GitHub repository support to integrations and update related tests.
Implement server-side GitHub API calls and normalize GitHub base URLs.
Improve the repository browser UI with compact tabs and updated icons.
Add a custom, accessible scrollbar with pointer and keyboard support.
- Add paging, auth headers, and error handling when listing GitHub repos.
- Default GitHub token username to "x-access-token" when saving credentials.
- Introduce compact repo tab styles, new icons, and a draggable scrollbar.
Add support for integrating with external Git hosts (GitLab, Gitea,
and Azure DevOps). The backend gains a client to fetch paginated
repository lists, normalise base URLs, and surface provider errors.
Credentials are loaded from the OS keychain and a Tauri command is
exposed for the frontend to list integration repositories.
- Implement integration client with pagination, deserialization,
and provider-specific handling.
- Centralise keychain credential loading and expose listing command.
- Update UI to manage integration metadata, persist settings, and
save/remove tokens to the OS keychain for cloning and operations.
Add CSS custom properties for dialog backdrop, shadows, and panel
highlights to centralize visual theming. Refactor the status panel
overlay to consume these tokens and use color-mix instead of hardcoded
rgba values. This improves visual consistency and lets overlays adapt
cleanly to appearance changes and theme variants.
- Centralize dialog and panel visuals with new CSS variables
- Replace fixed rgba values with tokenized colors and color-mix
- Move borders, shadows, and gradients to use the new theme tokens
Introduce an appearance preference with modern, classic, and custom
modes and a persisted custom theme palette. Add helpers to load,
persist, and apply appearance and custom colors, and wire them into the
app settings lifecycle. Implement a comprehensive light theme and
appearance presets using CSS variables so custom palettes are applied
consistently across the UI, and include appearance in analytics when
settings are saved.
- Persist and apply appearance and custom color palette to :root
- Add muted light theme plus classic/modern presets and custom mapping
- Include appearance and customTheme in settings save and analytics payload
The change adds a safer LFS activation flow that ensures a
root .gitattributes file is not hidden by ignore rules and
activates local LFS filters. It also merges patterns from the
repository attributes with those reported by Git LFS to avoid
duplicates and inaccuracies.
- Adds a retry path for large LFS uploads by forcing HTTP/1.1
during pushes when an HTTP 413 error is returned.
Adds startup clone support with a new clone request type and parsing.
It wires a CLI and IPC pathway to forward a clone to a running app.
UI and docs were updated to reflect startup clone behavior.
- Introduce StartupCloneRequest and argument parsing.
- Wire IPC to pass clone requests and clone on startup.
- UI updated to queue clone requests and trigger clone.
The changes introduce server-side commands to manage gitignore
rules and to untrack paths without deleting local files.
A new GitIgnoreKind enum and helper functions normalize targets
and build proper ignore patterns, and UI code was wired to use
these commands.
- add_to_gitignore command and related helpers
- untrack_paths command to remove paths from the index
- UI wiring to expose ignore and untrack actions in explorer
The stash push feature now supports limiting the stash to
selected files via an optional paths parameter.
The UI passes file paths to stash_push and adds a
per-file context menu for scoped stash operations.
- Extend stash API to accept optional paths for scoped stashes
- Implement per-file stash actions via a status panel context menu
- Update tests and docs to reflect scoped stash behavior
Adds Git LFS support to the backend API and related UI.
The app now exposes commands to inspect, install, track and pull.
A sidecar git-lfs binary is bundled and a prep script is added.
This prepares the correct binary for each target platform.
- Expose Git LFS status and management commands in API
- Bundle and prepare a sidecar git-lfs binary for targets
- Update packaging, docs, and README with LFS notes
The app now supports opening a repository at startup by
reading a --repo argument and passing the path to the UI.
A new startup repository state is managed in the backend and
exposed via a tauri command and event, enabling the frontend
to auto-open the repository when ready. The UI adds a small
startup flow with retry handling to ensure the path is
consumed once available.
- Reads --repo or --repo=PATH and resolves relative paths
- Signals UI to open startup repo via open-startup-repository
- Frontend retries opening the repo until it succeeds
Add support for authenticated deletion of remote branches and folders.
The backend adds a batch delete command that queries the remote,
performs an atomic push --delete when possible with a fallback, and
prunes stale tracking refs; it accepts optional credentials. The
frontend and JS API integrate credential handling and prompt users when
authentication is required.
- New batch deletion command with optional username/password for auth.
- Uses ls-remote to scope deletions, tries --atomic then falls back.
- Frontend updates: credential dialog/action, pendingRemoteDelete state.
Add a context-menu action to delete all branches in a folder at once.
Top-level remote folders are protected and the currently checked-out branch
is preserved. The BranchPanel API now includes folder depth to prevent
accidental bulk-deletes and summarizes individual failures after processing.
UI polish and localization were applied, and the package/version metadata,
changelog, and help overlay were updated for the 2026.8.4 release.
- Bulk delete with top-level remote protection and failure summaries.
- BranchPanel now tracks folder depth and disables unsafe context menus.
- Version bump, changelog/help overlay updates, and UI/localization tweaks.
Add ability to delete all branches in a folder from the UI. Add a
handler to batch-delete local or remote branches and refresh views.
- Batch deletion handles remote and local branches and reports failures.

- Track folder deletion attempts and failures via telemetry.
Pass the application language into compare dialogs and add German
translations so titles, buttons and helper text render appropriately.
Refactor dialog markup to introduce a compact header with a GitCompare
icon, show changed-file counts, and surface contextual help and warnings.
Adjust and extend CSS for spacing, layout and responsive behavior.
- Pass app language into compare components and derive isGerman flag
- Replace icons and restructure headers; add counts, help and warnings
- Update styles for sizing, spacing, responsive rules and new classes
Allow remote branch renames to be performed with optional credentials so
operations against protected remotes succeed when authentication is needed.
The backend accepts username/password and uses an authenticated push path
when provided, while the frontend prompts for and reuses stored credentials.
- Add optional username/password to rename RPC and use authenticated push
- Wire UI to queue rename, open credential dialog, and execute rename
- Extend credential dialog and handling to include the rename action
This change adds a background path for fetching commit notes per repo
and a shared cache to avoid duplicate work. When notes are fetched
and the active repo is visible, history is refreshed to reflect
notes without blocking user actions.
- Adds per-path backgroundCommitNotesFetches cache to debounce fetches
- Integrates note fetch into the background tick and refresh flow
- Handles credential errors and shutdown gracefully during fetches
This change adds Git notes support to the history UI.
Commits now carry a has_note flag which triggers a note indicator.
Notes can be previewed on hover and loaded on demand,
then the history can be refreshed after edits.
- Adds has_note support on commits and parses from logs.
- Renders a note indicator in history rows with a hover preview.
- Triggers history refresh after note-related actions.
Introduces a credential mode for stored credentials and wire it to
per-remote URL resolution and operation flows. The UI, storage, and
remote interactions now track and persist the mode, enabling token
based auth alongside username/password credentials.
- Remote URL resolution now considers direction (pull/push) and mode
- Credential dialog, saving, and keychain handling updated to pass and
respect the mode
- Unique askpass scripts generated per invocation to avoid clashes
The credential expiry feature has been removed from both the Rust
backend and the frontend. Stored credentials now include only
username and password.

- Simplify API by removing expiry param from credSave
- Drop expiry UI and expiry checks across the app
This release adds upstream tracking for branches and a local-only
indicator in the UI.
The Git integration now exposes upstreams and supports publish flows.
This enables publishing and remote-tracking configuration.
- Introduces upstream tracking and local-only branch UI markers
- Updates toolbar to reflect publish-local state and status indicators
- Bumps version to 2026.8.3 and updates changelog
Adds a new command to rename remote branches and update tracking refs.
Renaming remote refs is performed atomically using a single push.
The push creates the new remote ref and deletes the old if it succeeds.
The frontend now invokes remote-rename when needed and shows labels.
- Atomic remote rename via push with create/ref and delete
- Frontend supports remote branch renames from the branch panel
- Compare UI now shows labels for remote refs in results
Refines history panel visuals and layout, including min width handling.

- Introduce CommitBranchDecoration and CommitRefSummary types
- Wire remote branches and ahead/behind data to UI
Adds a new external tools subsystem to detect and launch
diff and editor tools across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
It exposes data models for tools, commands, and results to the UI
and serializes them for consumption by the app.
- Implement cross-platform discovery of editors and diff tools
- Expose serialized results to the UI for user selection
- Centralize per-OS known tool lists and overrides
Introduce a global command palette for quick access to common repository
actions, branches, files, and commits. Wire it into the main shell so it
can open settings, help, and other dialogs while keeping keyboard access
consistent.
Also add commit selection state to the history view so the active commit
is highlighted and brought into view when chosen from either the palette
or the history panel.
This update modifies several Git command functions to be asynchronous,
improving the responsiveness of the application. By utilizing async
runtime, operations that involve I/O or long-running tasks can now run
without blocking the main thread, enhancing user experience.
- Converted multiple Git command functions to async
- Introduced a helper function to handle async tasks with error management
- Improved overall performance and responsiveness of Git operations
This update introduces a structured shutdown process for the application. It ensures that background tasks are properly terminated and telemetry is notified when the frontend is shutting down, preventing any ongoing operations from continuing during this state.
- Added event listeners to manage app shutdown events
- Implemented a shutdown handler to clear timers and notify telemetry
- Updated background task checks to respect the shutdown state
The handling of the Escape key has been refined to ensure that it
closes the correct dialog based on the current state. Additionally,
the z-index for the compare dialog backdrop has been updated to
ensure proper layering with other dialogs.
- Enhanced Escape key functionality for better user experience
- Updated z-index for compare dialog backdrop to avoid overlap
This update introduces pagination and skipping functionality for the
commit listing feature, allowing users to load commits in pages and
navigate through them more efficiently. The UI has been adjusted to
support loading more commits dynamically, improving the overall user
experience when dealing with large repositories.
- Added pagination support for commit history
- Introduced a loading mechanism for fetching more commits
- Updated UI components to reflect changes in commit loading behavior
Introduce a split-planning path for staged changes that asks supported AI
providers to group files into ordered Conventional Commit messages. The
plan is validated before execution so every staged file is assigned once
and unsafe states are rejected.
A new dialog lets users review and adjust the proposed groups before
creating the commits in sequence, with safeguards to preserve remaining
changes if something fails.
Introduces granular control over diff operations by enabling users to select individual lines within a hunk. This refactors the core logic across multiple components, allowing for precise staging, unstaging, or discarding of specific changes rather than operating on entire hunks. The UI now features dedicated controls and visual feedback for line-level selection.
- Refactored patch parsing to track selected line IDs and calculate range information.
- Updated the diff view CSS and component structure to display interactive line selection bars.
- Extended action dialogs to support confirming operations on selected lines.
This update introduces full support for Git worktrees, allowing users to manage multiple isolated working copies within a single repository. This includes new functionality to list, add, remove, move, lock, and repair worktrees, significantly enhancing the repository's capability to handle parallel development streams.
- Added `GitWorktree` structure definition across API contracts and Rust backend
- Implemented full CRUD operations for worktrees in Tauri commands
- Updated UI components (App.svelte, BranchPanel.svelte) to expose worktree management dialog
Introduces a persistent, styled error toast notification system for displaying critical application errors. This required refactoring the local error handling logic in App.svelte to manage complex state objects instead of simple timers, allowing for better control over visibility and interaction (e.g., pausing on hover).
- Adds global CSS styling and animations for the visible error toast component
- Updates error auto-hide mechanism to use structured state management
- Implements interactive features like pause/resume timing on mouse events
Adds comprehensive client-side telemetry capabilities for usage, errors, and performance metrics. This includes integrating OpenTelemetry standards into both the frontend (Svelte) and backend (Tauri/Rust) layers to capture events, spans, and system resource utilization.
The implementation ensures that all collected data is privacy-filtered by design, explicitly excluding sensitive information like repository paths, credentials, source code, or email addresses from being logged.
- Updates README with detailed SigNoz telemetry guide
- Adds process metrics collection (CPU/Memory) in Rust backend
- Exposes `setTelemetryEnabled` state management to the frontend
The commit enhances Git operation reliability by improving how authentication errors are detected and displayed to the user. It standardizes Git output language across different locales and introduces a mechanism to summarize complex raw Git stderr messages, ensuring users receive clear feedback when cloning or interacting with repositories that fail due to credentials.
- Standardize git command output using LC_ALL=C for consistent English messaging.
- Implement error summarization logic to extract the most relevant message from raw Git stderr.
- Update credential dialogs to display summarized and improved authentication failure details.
Improved handling for deleting remote branches across the application, enhancing both user experience and backend reliability. This includes adding structured logging to all Git remote operations in Rust, refining UI components to handle remote-specific deletion flows, and providing clear status/error feedback in sync settings.
- Standardized styling for action toggles (Stash, Branch, Explorer) using consistent dimensions.
- Implemented detailed console logging for all Git remote operations on the backend.
- Refined dialogs and sync settings to provide explicit status and error messages during remote management.
