Add pull request draft generation to the commit_ai crate and expose it
via a new Tauri command. The backend builds a branch-range context from
published remote-tracking refs only, calls the chosen AI provider, and
parses a JSON {"title","description"} draft (with validation). Also
register the command in the app and add unit tests for parsing and the
branch-context behavior.
Consolidate AI settings in the frontend by renaming the dialog to an
AiSettingsPage and integrating AI options into the main AppSettings
dialog. Persisted AI preferences are merged with existing localStorage
rather than replacing it, and the settings UI now supports opening the
app settings to a specific initial page ("integrations" or "ai").
Other changes:
- Replace the commit-message system prompt used by build_messages with
the updated, more detailed guidance text.
Introduce an iterative visibleParentResolver for commit-graph rendering,
replacing a recursive traversal. It preserves first-parent ordering,
deduplicates converging paths, and avoids stack overflows; a test suite
validates correctness and performance. Additionally, streamline background
fetch handling in the UI to reuse fetchRemote's returned status and avoid
unnecessary status reads and tab invalidation, and refactor Git status
handling in Rust to build a file_status_index that preserves rename and
first-match semantics while speeding lookups.
- Add visibleParentResolver + comprehensive tests for ancestry handling
- Reuse fetchRemote result to apply status and skip unchanged updates
- Replace status_for_file with file_status_index to improve performance
Change undo-last-commit behavior to perform a soft reset instead of a
mixed reset. This preserves the index and working tree so the undone
commit's changes remain staged and ready to recommit. The confirmation
dialog text was updated to accurately reflect the new behavior.
- Perform git reset --soft HEAD~1 to move HEAD while preserving index
- Update UI confirmation copy to state that changes remain staged and
files are preserved
Add creation flow for integration issues and Azure work items.
Expose Tauri commands to list Azure projects and types.
Also add a command to create integration issues and return the created item.
Preserve the target repository when provider responses omit it and return
the created issue information to the UI.
- Implement Azure-specific URL and payload handling and creation logic
- Add a Svelte CreateIssueDialog and integrate it into IssueCenter
- Add tests to validate creation requests and created-issue parsing
Add support for listing and setting Azure DevOps work item states from the
integration layer. New helpers build and validate JSON-patch payloads and
expose two Tauri commands so the frontend can enumerate available states
and apply state changes. The Issue Center now loads Azure states and can
change an issue's state; dialog dismiss controls and related CSS were
consolidated and board UI feedback was simplified for clarity.
- Add Tauri commands to list and set Azure work item states.
- Load and present Azure states in Issue Center and allow state changes.
- Unify dialog dismiss attributes and refine hover/focus styling.
Add a lightweight workspace preferences helper to store optional UI
settings in localStorage and integrate it with the issues views so
filters, queries, and view mode are restored per source. The
integration board now remembers repository and query filters, and the
Issue Center restores state filters and view mode across sessions.
Also disable drag and drop for the main Tauri window to avoid accidental
file drops.
- Add read/write helpers for workspace preferences in localStorage
- Persist and restore filters, queries, and view mode for issue views
- Disable window drag-and-drop to prevent accidental file drops
Add client-side wrappers for creating integration review requests and
for listing repository branches, and wire native command imports so the
app can call those integration endpoints. Update the review center UI to
include a create-review dialog import and refine table and provider
button layout for improved spacing and readability.
- Add wrappers for create review requests and branch listing
- Wire native integration imports and prepare the create-review dialog
- Adjust table sizing and provider button layout for better spacing
Add a backend command to enumerate a repository's branches and default
branch for configured integrations, and expose it to the UI. The create
review dialog now fetches branches, shows loading and error states, and
uses searchable SelectMenu controls for repositories and branches. If a
local repository path is available the dialog will try to match remotes
and preselect a local branch that exists on the remote to streamline
review creation.
- Add integration branch listing command and wire it into the dialog
- Replace plain selects with searchable SelectMenu and improved UX
- Attempt to detect and suggest a matching local source branch when possible
Add a new Tauri command and front-end flow to create PRs/MRs.
The backend builds and validates provider-specific payloads and
endpoints, sends creation requests, and parses responses into the
app's review model. A Svelte dialog and a JS wrapper wire the UI to the
command so users can create requests from the Review Center.
- Implement provider payload and endpoint logic with unit tests
- Expose create_integration_review_request as a Tauri command
- Add CreateReviewDialog UI and integrate a creation button in Review Center
Add backend integration modules to discover, read, and modify
provider-hosted boards, issues, and comments across multiple providers.
Expose Tauri commands for board discovery, listing, and card moves,
and implement safe issue actions and comment APIs.
Wire new Svelte UI components to render boards, issue centers,
comments, labels, and assignees, and add sanitized markdown rendering.
- Add board discovery, board reading, and card-move APIs
- Add Svelte components and styles for integrated board UI
- Use marked + DOMPurify for safe markdown rendering
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.
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 integrations for GitHub, GitLab (cloud & self-hosted), Azure DevOps,
and Gitea, storing personal access tokens in the operating system
keychain. Azure DevOps supports multiple independently configurable
organizations, and the Clone → Integrations tab loads, filters, sorts,
and clones repositories using stored credentials. Update the API
contract, help overlay, README, changelog, and application version
metadata to document and ship the feature.
- Add list_integration_repositories API command and related types
- New Clone → Integrations UI with search, refresh, and direct clone
- Store tokens in OS keychain and support multiple Azure DevOps orgs
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.
Saving sync settings with no upstream could cause a fatal Git
error when unsetting upstream on a branch that never had tracking
information. This change guards the operation by checking for an existing
merge configuration before unsetting, making it idempotent. A test was
added to verify that clearing an unconfigured upstream is a no-op.
- Add test ensuring clearing an unconfigured upstream is a no-op
Bump version to 2026.8.6 across packaging, app config, and docs.
The change aligns binaries, config files, and changelog with the new release.
A new 2026.8.6 entry is added to the changelog and the UI surfaces release notes.
- Aligns version across packaging, app config, and UI
- Adds 2026.8.6 changelog entry and release notes in UI
- Prepares release by updating docs and build metadata
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
This release bumps version numbers to 2026.8.5 across all
manifests and docs and includes UI refinements. The
status panel now uses lucide folder icons for tree view
and folders, replacing the previous icons and CSS.
- Replace the tree view icon with lucide FolderTree in status panel
- Use Folder and FolderOpen icons for expanded/collapsed folders
- Bump version to 2026.8.5 in all manifests and changelog
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.
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 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
Adds a new window capability to allow destroying the window.
It also changes shutdown handling in telemetry to avoid errors.
- Add core:window:allow-destroy to default capabilities
- Avoid shutdown errors by returning a pending promise in tracedInvoke
- Improve stability during shutdown for in-flight telemetry calls
The credential expiry feature has been removed from both the Rust
backend and the frontend. Stored credentials now include only
username and password.
- Remove expiresAt field from StoredCredential
- 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
Adds a helper that forces selected tools to launch in a new window
instead of reusing the current one. This is applied to code editors,
diff/merge, and terminal launches, aligning behavior across platforms.
Presets and defaults are updated to pass new-window or equivalent flags,
and tests verify the new behavior for common tools.
- Update code editors to always use a new window when opened
- Normalize launch flags for Windows terminals and diff tools
- Add tests covering new-window behavior for common tools
