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
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.
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 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 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.
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
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
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.
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.
Introduces a robust system for running automated, staged diff reviews against various large language models. This feature allows users to submit their changes to external AI services and receive structured feedback on potential bugs, security issues, and maintainability risks before committing.
The implementation covers the entire stack:
* Backend logic was added to handle API communication with OpenAI, Anthropic, and custom endpoints.
* A dedicated parser ensures that complex JSON outputs from LLMs are reliably converted into structured findings (severity, title, description).
* New components and UI elements provide a clear visualization of the AI's assessment and actionable suggestions.
- Supports multiple major LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic)
- Parses structured JSON output for consistent review results
- Adds dedicated UI dialog to display AI findings and risk level
This commit updates the package version to 2026.7.19 and modifies
the build scripts to include additional commands for better
development workflow. The main window of the application is also set
to maximize upon launch.
- Updated package version in PKGBUILD
- Added new build commands in settings.local.json
- Maximized the main application window on startup
The main application setup in src-tauri/src/main.rs has been refactored to enhance local variable scoping. By assigning the result of tauri::Builder::default() to a named variable, the code becomes clearer and more readable without changing runtime behavior.
This update significantly expands Git functionality by implementing support for advanced workflows, including interactive rebasing and recovering lost commits via the reflog. New logic handles preparing the necessary environment files (todo lists and reword queues) required by Git's internal editors. The frontend components are also updated to expose these new capabilities to the user interface.
- Implements full planning and execution flow for interactive rebase
- Adds functionality to list and restore commits using the reflog history
- Updates Rust backend commands to support advanced git operations
This update introduces the tauri-plugin-single-instance to ensure that
only one instance of the application can run at a time. Additionally,
the code has been reformatted for better readability, with consistent
line breaks and spacing.
- Added single instance plugin to prevent multiple app instances
- Improved code formatting for better readability and maintenance
- Updated dependencies in Cargo.toml for new plugin integration
This update improves the splashscreen management during application startup. The splashscreen will now remain visible for a minimum duration and will only close after the main application is ready, ensuring a smoother user experience.
- Introduced a new startup sequence to manage background tasks.
- Added error handling for splashscreen closure to maintain functionality.
- Optimized the timing for displaying and hiding the splashscreen.
This commit introduces a splash screen that enhances the user experience during application startup. It includes a new HTML file for the splash screen layout and a corresponding icon. The main application logic has been updated to close the splash screen once the main application is ready.
- Added a splash screen HTML and icon for improved visual feedback
- Updated main application logic to manage splash screen visibility
- Enhanced title bar branding with an image instead of SVG
Integrate Aptabase analytics via a Tauri plugin and add a privacy
notice flow plus a settings dialog to control whether anonymous
usage events are sent. The app now tracks key user actions while
ensuring analytics never blocks core Git operations.
- Add analytics tracking helper and Aptabase plugin wiring
- Persist analytics consent in localStorage and gate tracking
- Introduce notice and settings dialogs, plus new event calls
This change introduces a new backend command to fetch file blame using
git's line-porcelain output and returns structured per-line metadata.
The UI adds a BlameDialog that groups lines by commit, highlights
uncommitted changes, and styles the dialog to match the updated theme.
- Add get_file_blame command and parsing with uncommitted detection
- Wire BlameDialog into the explorer file node actions
- Add blame UI component and supporting types and styles
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
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
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 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
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
Add OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic, and custom endpoint support while
keeping the local model path intact. The UI now lets users choose the
provider and local model, and staged diffs are prepared more carefully
so generated commit messages stay focused and usable.
- src-tauri/crates/commit_ai/*
- Add HTTP-based generators for OpenAI, Anthropic, and custom APIs.
- Introduce shared request/response handling and message sanitizing.
- Expand prompt building to require a body and trim long diffs safely.
- Expose selectable local model metadata and loading by model ID.
- src-tauri/src/git.rs
- Add commands for listing local models and loading them in background.
- Route generation by provider and include staged file lists in prompts.
- Exclude noisy lockfiles from detailed staged diffs.
- src-tauri/src/main.rs
- Wire the new AI commands into the Tauri app setup.
- src/lib/components/*
- Add an AI settings dialog and update the commit panel for provider
and model selection.
- src/lib/git.ts, src/lib/types.ts, src/App.svelte, src/app.css
- Extend frontend state, types, and styling for AI provider settings.
- src-tauri/Cargo.lock, src-tauri/crates/commit_ai/Cargo.toml
- Add reqwest and serde_json for cloud API requests.
Introduces a new "Repository Management" view for browsing open and recent repositories. Adds a tabbed interface for quickly switching between multiple active repositories, with persistent state. Also includes a new command to open the current repository in the native file explorer.
Introduce a new dialog that allows users to view file changes as individual hunks and selectively stage, unstage, or discard them. This provides more granular control over modifications, similar to `git add -p`.
Enhance branch panel usability by allowing double-click to checkout a branch.
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.
Implement the ability to create new local branches directly from the application's UI. This includes a new backend command to handle branch creation with validation and a frontend form in the branch panel.
Additionally, extend the global search dialog to include a "Files" tab. Users can now search for files by name or path within the repository. Selecting a file in the search results displays its full commit history, with options to diff the file at a specific commit or restore it to that version.
This change introduces a comprehensive auto-update mechanism for the application and significant improvements to the integrated Git client experience.
Key features include:
- **Automated Release Workflow:** A new Gitea Actions workflow (`app_builder.yaml`) and a Python `cicd_tool` are added to automatically build, sign, and upload release artifacts to S3-compatible storage (MinIO) upon a new release. This also generates the `latest.json` file required by the updater.
- **Tauri Updater Integration:** The `tauri-plugin-updater` is integrated into the application, enabling it to check for and apply updates seamlessly.
- **Robust Git Push Handling:** The application now intelligently handles non-fast-forward push failures by prompting the user to perform a pull/merge operation before re-attempting the push.
- **Enhanced File Comparison:** A new `compare_file_to_parent` command is introduced, allowing detailed file diffs against a commit's direct parent, including the "empty tree" for initial commits.
- **Explorer Panel Improvements:** "Expand All" and "Collapse All" functionality is added to the file explorer for better navigation.
