Use Equals instead of Contains for asserting the status view content. This
solves the problem that we might assert Contains("↓2 repo"), but what it really
shows is "↑1↓2 repo", and the test still succeeds. At best this is confusing.
Also, this way we don't have to use the awkward DoesNotContain to check that it
really doesn't show a checkmark.
To do this, we need to fix two whitespace problems:
- there was always a space at the end for no reason. Simply remove it. It was
added in efb51eee96, but from looking at that diff it seems it was added
accidentally.
- there was a space at the beginning if the branch status was empty. This is
actually a cosmetic problem, for branches without a status the text was
indented by once space. Change this so that the space is added conditionally.
It's a bit awkward that we have to use Decolorise here, but this will go away
again later in this branch.
- **PR Description**
Improve the `ctrl-f` command so that it also works when there are no
hunks with deleted lines in the diff. This is very useful, for example,
when a fixup commit adds a comment to a function that was added in the
PR.
Since the exact behavior of the command is getting very complex and hard
to understand, I added a design document that describes what it does,
and also how it differs from git-absorb which does a very similar thing.

want to discuss further improvements.
We aren't using them, yet, except for deciding whether to show the warning about
hunks with only added lines.
Add a bit of test coverage for parseDiff while we're at it.
- **PR Description**
This fixes three different problems; two were recent regressions, one
has never worked.
1. For branches whose remote is not stored locally, don't ask to force
push right away. Try a normal push first. This broke with #3528.
2. For branches whose remote is not stored locally (but only for those),
if the server rejects the update, ask to force push. This broke with
#3387.
3. When force-pushing a branch whose remote is not stored locally, use
`--force` instead of `--force-with-lease`; otherwise the push would
always fail with a "stale info" error. This has never worked.
Fixes#3588.
This broke with 81b497d186 (#3387). In that PR I claimed that we never want to
ask for force-pushing if the server rejected the update, on the assumption that
this can only happen because the remote tracking branch is not up to date, and
users should just fetch in this case. However, I didn't realize it's even
possible to have a branch whose upstream branch is not stored locally; in this
case we can't tell ahead of time whether a force push is going to be necessary,
so we _have_ to rely on the server response to find out. But we only want to do
that in this specific case, so this is not quite an exact revert of 81b497d186.
This broke with #3528.
If the remote branch is not stored locally, we only see question marks in the
branch status. In this case we can't tell whether we need to force-push, so it's
best to assume that we don't, and see if the server rejects the push, and react
to that by asking to force push. This second part is also broken right now,
we'll fix this in the next commit.

When branches are sorted by recency we have this logic that first loads the
branches so that they can be rendered quickly; in parallel, it starts loading
the reflog in the background, and when that's done, it loads the branches again
so that they get their recency values. This means that branches are loaded twice
at startup.
We don't need this logic when branches are not sorted by recency, so we can
simply load branches and reflog in parallel like everything else.
This shouldn't change any user observable behavior, it just avoids doing
unnecessary work at startup.

- **PR Description**
Some people push to a different branch (or even remote) than they pull
from. One example is described in #3437. Our logic of when to request a
force push is not appropriate for these workflows: we check the
configured upstream branch for divergence, but that's the one you pull
from. We should instead check the push-to branch for divergence.
Fixes#3437.
To determine whether we need to ask for force pushing, we need to query the push
branch rather than the upstream branch, in case they are not the same.
In a triangular workflow the branch that you're pulling from is not the same as
the one that you are pushing to. For example, some people find it useful to set
the upstream branch to origin/master so that pulling effectively rebases onto
master, and set the push.default git config to "current" so that "feature"
pushes to origin/feature.
Another example is a fork-based workflow where "feature" has upstream set to
upstream/main, and the repo has remote.pushDefault set to "origin", so pushing
on "feature" pushes to origin/feature.
This commit adds new fields to models.Branch that store the ahead/behind
information against the push branch; for the "normal" workflow where you pull
and push from/to the upstream branch, AheadForPush/BehindForPush will be the
same as AheadForPull/BehindForPull.
Our code doesn't realize that we need to prompt the user to force push, when the
branch is up-to-date with its upstream but not with the branch that we're
pushing to.
It is unexpected that a function called PushBranch also sets the upstream
branch; also, we want to add a PushBranch function in the next commit that
doesn't.
This guards against accidentally renaming a model field and thereby breaking
user's custom commands. With this change we'll get a build failure when we do
that.
- **PR Description**
Allow deleting and editing custom command history items. Deleting is
done by hitting `d` on a suggestion; editing is done by hitting `e`,
which fills the selected item into the command prompt for further
editing.
Closes#2528.
For custom commands it is useful to select an earlier command and have it copied
to the prompt for further editing. This can be done by hitting 'e' now.
For other types of suggestion panels we don't enable this behavior, as you can't
create arbitrary new items there that don't already exist as a suggestion.
In the custom commands panel you can now tab to the suggestions and hit 'd' to
delete items from there. Useful if you mistyped a command and don't want it to
appear in your history any more.
- **PR Description**
This PR fixes a problem with lazygit locking up completely when there's
a commit whose subject line is longer than approximately 65500
characters.
Fixes#3529.
We are going to truncate overly long lines returned from git log, and the most
likely field that is going to make the line too long is the subject; so we must
put it last, otherwise we'd end up with not enough fields to split when it's too
long.
It might not be obvious from the diff what's happening to the mock command
output in the test: it didn't have the divergence field (">") at all, which was
kind of a bug. It didn't matter for these tests though, because we are not
testing the divergence here, and our production code happens to be resilient
against it missing. But now we must add the ">" field before the subject.
Scanners can return errors (e.g. ErrTooLong), and if we don't handle it, the
cmd.Wait() call below will block forever because nobody drains the command's
output.
This happens for CommitLoader.GetCommits when there's a commit whose subject
line is longer than approx. 65500 characters; in that case, lazygit would lock
up completely. With this fix it remains usable, but the commit list is truncated
before the bad commit, which is not good enough. We'll improve that in the
remaining commits of this branch.
- **PR Description**
Clicking in the status side panel should activate it; also, clicking on
the repo name should bring up the recent repositories menu, and clicking
on the "(rebasing)" text should bring up the rebase options menu. All of
this was broken for a long time, since somewhere around the big
refactoring of March 2023. (The exact commit where it broke is hard to
bisect, since many of the commits in that area either don't compile or
crash at startup...)
I'm fixing this not because I think it's super important functionality
(nobody seems to have missed it for over a year), but because I have to
touch this code in another PR, and noticed that it wasn't working.

In the "View divergence from upstream" view we have so far disabled the
commit graph because it was too difficult to implement properly. I
really miss it though, so here's a PR that enables it there, too.
For feature branches it is not essential, because these usually don't
contain merges and the graph is a trivial line. However, for the master
branch against its upstream it is useful too see how many PRs were
merged since you last fetched it, and the graph helps a lot with that.
Also, when we implement #3536 it will be very useful there, too.
Change `func displayCommit()` so all the individual strings are built first,
then the whole thing `cols` is put together. Before, most strings were built
prior to constructing `cols`, but a few were built inside the `cols`
construction.

- **PR Description**
The rebase.updateRefs feature of git is very useful to rebase a stack of
branches and keep everything nicely stacked; however, it is usually in
the way when you make a copy of a branch and want to rebase it "away"
from the original branch in some way or other. For example, the original
branch might sit on main, and you want to rebase the copy onto devel to
see if things still compile there. Or you want to do some heavy history
rewriting experiments on the copy, but keep the original branch in case
the experiments fail. Or you want to split a branch in two because it
contains two unrelated sets of changes; so you make a copy, and drop
half of the commits from the copy, then check out the original branch
and drop the other half of the commits from it.
In all these cases, git's updateRefs feature insists on moving the
original branch along with the copy in the first rebase that you make on
the copy. I think this is a bug in git, it should create update-ref
todos only for branches that point into the middle of your branch
(because only then do they form a stack), not when they point at the
head (because then it's a copy). I had a long discussion about this on
the git mailing list [1], but people either don't agree or don't care
enough.
So we fix this on our side: whenever we start a rebase for whatever
reason, be it interactive, non-interactive, or behind-the-scenes, we
drop any update-ref todos that are at the very top of the todo list,
which fixes all the above-mentioned scenarios nicely.
I will admit that there's one scenario where git's behavior is the
desired one, and the fix in this PR makes it worse: when you create a
new branch off of an existing one, with the intention of creating a
stack of branches, but before you make the first commit on the new
branch you realize some problem with the first branch (e.g. a commit
that needs to be reworded or dropped). It this case you do want both
branches to be affected by the change. In my experience this scenario is
much rarer than the other ones that I described above, and it's also
much easier to recover from: just check out the other branch again and
hard-reset it to the rebased one.

Sometimes it takes a while to get PRs accepted upstream, and this blocks our
progress. Since I'm pretty much the only one making changes there anyway, it
makes sense to point to my fork directly.
It was added in 2018 (700f8c7e79), but I don't know for what purpose. It just
took me 15 minutes to figure out why my new file todo.go wasn't added, so I'm
removing this entry as I find it more harmful than helpful.
- **PR Description**
Simplify and canonicalize error handling across the code base.
Previously it was important to make sure that errors don't bubble up
into gocui, because it would panic there; so we had to show errors in
error panels in the right places (in controller code, usually). This is
error-prone because it's easy to forget (see #3490 for an example);
also, it's not always obvious where in the call chain the error panel
needs to be shown. Most of the time it's in controller code, but we had
plenty of calls to `Error()` in helpers, and I remember that I found
this very confusing when I was new to the code base.
Change this so that you can simply return errors everywhere. The
functions to show an error message manually have been removed for
clarity.
I tried to structure the commits so that you can review them one by one.
Closes#3491.
It is now only used as the error handler that is passed to gocui.Gui on
construction; it's not a client-facing API any more. Also, it doesn't have to
handle gocui.ErrQuit, as gocui takes care of that.
This lets us get rid of a few more calls to Error(), and it simplifies things
for clients of OnWorker: they can simply return an error from their callback
like we do everywhere else.
In Gui.onWorker we only make the minimum possible change to get things to
compile after the API-breaking change of the gocui update; we'll make this
cleaner later in this branch.
