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
This update significantly expands the available Git functionality by adding robust support for initializing repositories, managing remotes, and improving complex workflow operations like merging and reverting commits. New API endpoints are exposed across the backend and frontend to handle remote setup, branch tracking, and conflict resolution workflows.
- Added full remote management capabilities (add, update, remove).
- Implemented advanced merge strategies and commit reversion logic.
- Introduced a dedicated UI component for synchronization settings.
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
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
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
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
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
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
Consolidate multiple Git backend calls into a single bundle to reduce
overhead when opening and auto-refreshing repositories. This significantly
improves performance by fetching status, branches, commits, and files
in one optimized operation, instead of re-running 'git rev-parse' and
'git status' multiple times.
Also, streamline commit history loading by fetching file changes inline
via 'git log --name-status -z', eliminating expensive per-commit
'git diff-tree' processes.
Additionally, introduce the ability to create new branches from a
specific commit in the history and refactor the commit comparison
feature into a dedicated dialog. The status panel now displays concise
file names.
