The credential dialog now starts with session saving enabled by
default, reducing extra user interaction for the common case. This
improves usability while keeping the option available to change.
- Set saveSession default to true in CredentialDialog
Repo status updates for the management view are now refreshed in the
background after switching, without blocking the initial open flow.
The history graph and hover labels now distinguish local vs upstream
branches, visually marking commits that are ahead or behind.
- Add background fetch helper and shared status update logic
- Pass active upstream into HistoryPanel and render sync styling
Adjust the repo ahead/behind meta colors and add subtle background
highlights for better visual distinction. Also introduce dedicated
CSS for the commit amend toggle input, including checked, focus, and
disabled states to improve usability and accessibility.
- Refine ahead/behind meta color and background emphasis
- Add complete styling for commit amend toggle states
Repo branch status is now cached locally and refreshed in the
background so management and tab lists show up-to-date data without
manual fetches. The background worker updates repos in a round-robin
batch to avoid running multiple git subprocesses at once, and the UI
renders ahead/behind/changed counts alongside branch names.
- Add localStorage-backed repo status cache for known repos
- Background polling updates open tabs and recent/known repos
- Show ahead/behind/changed metadata in repository management UI
This change introduces new Tauri commands to amend the last commit with
an optional message, fetch the last commit message, and undo the most
recent commit safely. The UI now offers an amend toggle and an undo
button only when the last commit hasn’t been pushed upstream, reducing
the risk of rewriting shared history.
- Add amend/undo/last-message git commands in Rust
- Wire new operations into the Svelte commit panel UI
- Add styling and state handling for amend mode
This update extends the Git backend and UI to support listing,
creating, deleting, and pushing tags. It also adds cherry-pick
commands with proper in-progress detection and conflict handling, and
prevents other operations while a cherry-pick is active.
- Add GitTag model, tag listing, and tag CRUD/push commands
- Implement cherry-pick start/continue/abort with status tracking
- Update UI to display tags and gate actions during cherry-pick
Hover behavior for graph branch highlights was adjusted to limit the
opacity/transform changes to the gutter hover state. This prevents the
highlight from triggering when hovering over the graph rows, reducing
unintended visual effects.
The history panel now generates more informative hover text for commits.
It prefers direct local branch refs when available, otherwise it derives
a concise list from containing branch labels and summarizes overflow.
- Add helpers to compute hover branch labels and title text
- Update the graph row hover rendering to use the new helpers
The commit history UI now provides a compact actions menu per commit,
with positioning constrained to the history panel. The menu supports
keyboard dismissal via Escape and closes on outside clicks to keep the
interaction predictable.
- Replace per-commit action buttons with an ellipsis menu
- Add context menu state and panel-relative positioning logic
- Style the new history context menu and menu button
The CI workflow now installs the required Rust toolchain and uv on
Ubuntu, and passes a no-strip flag into the Tauri build to control
binary stripping behavior per platform. The CI helper script was
updated to collect only expected bundle and signature files, reducing
noise and improving upload correctness. Versioning was aligned across
the Node package and Tauri config for the new release.
- Add platform-specific no_strip handling in the build workflow
- Install Rust toolchain/uv for Ubuntu builds
- Filter collected artifacts by expected extensions and signatures
Git operations that stage or restore many files could exceed the Windows
command line length limit, causing os error 206 failures. This change
splits file paths into size-bounded chunks and concatenates the output
from multiple git invocations to keep commands within safe limits.
- Chunk file path arguments for Windows compatibility
- Add a local dev command to list pkg-config packages
The workflow now sets up a Rust toolchain only for the Ubuntu
22.04 runner. This ensures Rust-based components can compile
reliably without affecting other platforms.
- Add conditional Rust toolchain install for ubuntu-22.04
The workflow now passes a per-platform NO_STRIP setting into the
Tauri build environment. This allows builds to retain symbols when
needed, improving debugging and crash analysis without changing the
default behavior for other targets.
- Add matrix no_strip values for Windows and Ubuntu
- Export NO_STRIP into the build environment for Tauri
Artifact collection previously grabbed every file under each bundle
directory, which could include unrelated or intermediate outputs. This
updates the logic to only include files with the expected extensions
for each artifact type, improving accuracy and reducing noise.
- Use a per-bundle suffix map to filter collected artifacts
- Switch to non-recursive directory iteration for bundle roots
The CI workflow now builds a single bundle per run, adds Linux
AppImage output, and updates the Tauri version using a Node script.
The publishing tool is extended to recognize Linux artifacts,
select a primary artifact based on the target platform, and merge
platform entries into an existing latest.json when present.
- Limit matrix parallelism and pass bundle targets to Tauri
- Update updater platform handling and latest.json merging
- Add Linux Tauri config for AppImage bundling
Cloning now accepts optional username/password and passes them to the
Rust git layer via GIT_ASKPASS, avoiding interactive prompts. The UI
detects authentication failures, opens the credential dialog for clone,
and auto-hides error messages to keep the flow smooth.
- Add username/password support to clone_repository and git.ts
- Detect auth failures and route users to the clone credential dialog
- Improve clone UX with a dedicated loading overlay and timed errors
This introduces a new Tauri command to clone a remote repository into a
validated destination folder, then return the full repository bundle for
immediate rendering. The Svelte app gains a clone dialog and a new action
in repository management, wiring the cloned bundle into existing refresh
helpers. Dialog backdrops were also adjusted to rely on explicit close
controls.
- Add clone_repository command and core cloning logic in Rust
- Create CloneRepositoryDialog and integrate it into App.svelte
- Improve clone-related styling and tighten dialog backdrop behavior
Branch deletion now supports an optional force mode in the Tauri
command, enabling deletion of branches that are not fully merged.
The UI replaces the simple confirm prompt with a dedicated dialog and
auto-escalates to force delete when Git rejects a normal delete.
- Add force flag to delete_branch command and tests
- Implement BranchDeleteConfirmDialog and wire it into App.svelte
- Update branch context menu actions and styling
This introduces Git rebase commands (start, continue, abort) and
exposes whether a rebase is currently in progress via the status
payload. The UI now blocks committing during an active rebase and
shows a dedicated rebase notice with continue/abort actions.
- Add tauri commands for rebase operations and status detection
- Update frontend to render rebase state and controls
- Adjust conflict/resolution messaging and related UI styling
This change introduces Git stash support end-to-end, including a new
backend command to list stashes and operations to push, apply, pop, and
drop them. The frontend now fetches stashes as part of the repository
bundle and provides a dedicated panel to manage shelved changes.
- Add GitStash model and Tauri commands for stash operations
- Implement StashPanel component and wire it into the app
- Adjust sidebar layout and add stash-specific styling
The commit history panel is now resizable with a draggable handle and
keyboard support. The chosen width is persisted in local storage so the
layout stays consistent across sessions. Git commit loading was also
adjusted to include all branch tips for a more complete graph.
- Add width persistence and pointer/keyboard resizing for history panel
- Update commit graph query to use topo-order across all refs
- Extend tests to ensure branch tips are included in commit results
The commit history panel now renders a more structured commit header,
including an avatar, kind badge, and clearer metadata layout. The git
graph visuals were also refined with smoother paths and improved hover
effects to make the history easier to scan.
- Add commit kind/root/merge badges and author initials
- Improve graph rendering with curved paths and hover emphasis
- Update CSS for commit cards, ref chips, and graph styling
The fetch command has been updated to run asynchronously, allowing for
better performance and responsiveness in the application. This change
ensures that the command does not block the main thread, enhancing the
user experience when interacting with repositories.
- Fetch command now uses async/await for non-blocking execution
- Added a grace period to prevent immediate background fetch after
switching repositories
- Improved handling of authentication errors during fetch operations
The Windows overlay badge now renders a single combined number and
includes an additional “changes” component in the total. This makes
the badge more informative while keeping the icon compact and
legible across small sizes.
- Simplify badge rendering to one circle with centered text
- Extend the Tauri command and frontend call to pass changes count
The badge icon rendering was tweaked by slightly reducing the
radius and scale constants. This helps align the icon proportions
and spacing for a cleaner visual result.
This updates the Windows taskbar overlay badge to show ahead and
behind separately with distinct colors, and clears it when both are
zero. It also adds a new authenticated fetch command wired through
the Tauri backend and UI, including a silent background fetch to keep
ahead/behind (and the badge) accurate without user interaction.
- Add Windows dual badge rendering for ahead/behind
- Implement Tauri fetch command with auth error handling
- Add UI fetch action plus periodic background fetch updates
This change introduces a Windows-only taskbar badge that displays the
ahead+behind count as a rendered overlay icon. The UI now updates
the badge whenever the repository sync status changes, and the git
diff commands are adjusted to avoid external diff/text conversion noise.
- Add badge rendering and Tauri command for setting overlay icon
- Wire badge updates into the Svelte app based on git status
- Update git diff invocations to disable ext-diff/textconv
Local AI is now treated as unavailable in the settings UI, with a
migration to ensure any previously saved "local" selection switches
back to OpenAI. The history panel also improves how commit file
names are presented, including clearer old->new path formatting.
- Migrate stored AI provider away from local to prevent dead state
- Disable local provider option with an "in development" badge
- Refine history panel filename rendering and tooltip context
Improve the commit message generation process by adding a caching mechanism and refining the input handling. This change aims to enhance performance and prevent redundant computations when generating commit messages based on staged changes.
- **src-tauri/crates/commit_ai/src/cloud.rs**:
- Introduced `looks_like_diff_echo` function to detect if the model's output is a diff instead of a commit message.
- Updated `openai_compatible_request` and `generate_anthropic` to utilize the new function for error handling.
- **src-tauri/crates/commit_ai/src/lib.rs**:
- Added `LocalGenerationProfile` enum for managing different generation profiles.
- Implemented caching for generated messages to avoid redundant processing.
- Updated `generate_commit_message` to incorporate caching logic.
- **src-tauri/src/git.rs**:
- Added `staged_diff_local` function to handle local profile generation and exclude specific lock files from the diff.
- Modified `commit_ai_generate` to accept and process the local generation profile.
- **src/App.svelte**:
- Added `lastLocalAiGeneratedMessage` state to track the last generated message and prevent unnecessary updates.
- **.claude/settings.local.json**:
- Updated settings to include additional commands for better functionality.
