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.

Seems that there's a problem in the Stdout/Stderr/Stdin stream vars
assignments,
probably copy-paste issue.
If this is intentional, I suggest adding an explanation on why `Stderr`
-> `Stdout` intentionally to avoid other PRs and confused people around
:)
Thanks!

Migrate users' config files to change all `null` keybindings to
`"<disabled>"`. Then remove our yaml fork, since that was the only
reason we were using it.
Fixes#3458.
Unfortunately the migration code requires yaml v3, but our yaml fork is based on
v2, so we need to import both in app_config.go in this commit, which is ugly. We
can clean this up in the next commit.
- **PR Description**
This is especially helpful for the breaking changes popup, which has a
link to the release notes, but it could also be useful for other panels
that display some warning or error with a link to more information.
Make it recognize URLs wrapped in angle brackets, and followed by punktuation.
We don't need this for the status panel, but we will need it for confirmation
panels.
Changing globals in the init() function of a test file is a bad idea, as it
affects all other tests that run after it. Do it explicitly in each test
function that needs it, and take care of restoring the previous value
afterwards.

For people who have the log.showsignature git config set to true, trying
to reword a signed commit would put the signature verification into the
subject field and the commit subject into the description field of the
commit message panel. Amending commits, adding co-authors to a commit,
and copying a commit message to the clipboard would all be broken in a
similar way.
Slightly related is #1911, but back then it was more about performance
than wrong behavior, it seems.
Fixes#3425.

Make the "Add to .git/info/exclude" command work correctly in a worktree
or in a submodule. Previously it would result in an error message.
Fixes#3427.
Using the "Add to .git/info/exclude" in a worktree results in an error message,
as the test shows. The same would happen in a submodule, but I'm not adding an
extra test for that, as the circumstances are the same.
- **PR Description**
When exiting filtering mode, we currently keep the selection index the
same in the commits panel. This doesn't make sense at all, since the
index in the filtered view has no relation to the index in the
unfiltered view.
I often use filtering mode (either by path or by author) to find a given
commit faster than I would otherwise be able to. When exiting filtering
mode, it's useful to keep the same commit selected, so that I can look
at the surrounding commits, see which branch it was a part of, etc. So
reselect the commit again after exiting filtering mode.
Sometimes this is not possible, most likely when the commit is so long
ago that it's outside of the initial 300 range. In that case, at least
select the commit again that was selected before I entered filtering;
this is still better than arbitrarily keeping the same selection index.

It would crash when some keybindings are set to null, and the filter
string is such that only those keybindings remain visible.
Fixes#3449.
It would crash when some keybindings are set to null, and the filter string is
such that only those keybindings remain visible.
The reason for the crash is that when inserting non-model items (menu section
headers in this case) you specify a column to align them to. This works on the
assumption that the number of columns is always the same. It can cope with the
case that columns are removed because they are empty for all items; but it can't
cope with the case that the getDisplayStrings function returns a lower number of
columns.
And this is what happened here: MenuViewModel.GetDisplayStrings would omit the
keybinding column when none of the entries have a keybinding. This logic is
unnecessary, the generic list rendering mechanism takes care of this, so
removing this logic fixes the crash.
We do have to make sure though that the column is really empty when there's no
keybinding, so change the logic to use FgCyan only when there's a keybinding.
- **PR Description**
Deleting an update-ref todo in an interactive rebase now behaves as
expected (i.e. it leaves the branch referenced by the update-ref
untouched). Previously it would have deleted the branch referenced by
the update-ref todo when the rebase was continued. See #3418 for more
details.
Fixes#3418.
It is a bad idea to read a git-rebase-todo file, remove some update-ref todos,
and write it back out behind git's back. This will cause git to actually remove
the branches referenced by those update-ref todos when the rebase is continued.
The reason is that git remembers the refs affected by update-ref todos at the
beginning of the rebase, and remembers information about them in the file
.git/rebase-merge/update-refs. Then, whenever the user performs a "git rebase
--edit-todo" command, it updates that file based on whether update-ref todos
were added or removed by that edit. If we rewrite the git-rebase-todo file
behind git's back, this updating doesn't happen.
Fix this by not updating the git-rebase-todo file directly in this case, but
performing a "git rebase --edit-todo" command where we set ourselves as the
editor and change the file in there. This makes git update the bookkeeping
information properly.
Ideally we would use this method for all cases where we change the
git-rebase-todo file (e.g. moving todos up/down, or changing the type of a
todo); this would be cleaner because we wouldn't mess with git's private
implementation details. I tried this, but unfortunately it isn't fast enough.
Right now, moving a todo up or down takes between 1 and 2ms on my machine;
changing it to do a "git rebase --edit-todo" slows it down to over 100ms, which
is unacceptable.
In the test we simply removed the update-ref todo but didn't make any other
changes to the todos. This should really have kept everything the way it was,
including the other branch head. The fact that the star was gone was really
because of the bug that we are going to fix later in the branch.
Change the test so that it also makes a change before the update-ref todo; this
way we test that the star is gone because we deleted the update-ref, not because
of the bug.
To guard against the bug, we add another assertion for the branches view to test
that both branches are still there. This currently fails.

Running WSL without a container would be treated as native linux,
causing problems at it would then attempt to use `xdg-open`. This was
caused by `isContainer()` always returning true due to some dubious
conditionals. These have been removed.
The env-var check seems to not be used by lazygit, nor any common
containers, and therefore appears to only exist to manually tell lazygit
to behave as if it were inside of a container. This functionality has
been kept, but the env-var has been changed to be all uppercaps as to
comply with the POSIX standard.

I often copy hashes in the commits panel in order to paste them into
Github comments (or other places), and I can't stand it when they have
the full length.
I picked a default of 12 for this; I find this to be a good middle
ground between being reliable in large repos (12 still works in the
linux kernel repo today, but it might not be enough in really huge
repos) and not being too ugly (many smaller repos can probably get away
with less).

To support this, we turn the confirmation prompt of the "Create fixup
commit" command into a menu; creating a fixup commit is the first entry,
so that "shift-F, enter" behaves the same as before. But there are
additional entries for creating "amend!" commits, either with or without
file changes. These make it easy to reword commit messages of existing
commits.

This makes it possible to select a range of files (either in the files
panel, or in the commit-files panel), and hit `e` to open them all at
once in the editor.
We pass all of them to a single editor command, hoping that the editor
will be able to handle multiple files (VS Code and vim do).
We ignore directories that happen to be in the selection range; this
makes it easier to edit multiple files in different folders in tree
view. We show an error if only directories are selected, though.

We've seen a lot of issues recently where people complain that lazygit

with this problem.

When lazygit suspends itself to the background to run an external
command, and the command returns a non-zero exit code, always show the
prompt for pressing enter to return to lazygit, even if the
`promptToReturnFromSubprocess` is set to `false`. The rationale is that
if the process returned an error, it likely also printed some error
message to the console that users will always want to read.
I was considering turning the `promptToReturnFromSubprocess` config into
an enum with values `never`, `onlyOnError`, `always`, but then I felt
that `onlyOnError` is really the only sensible choice for people who
have it set to `false` now, so I just hard-coded that.

This fixes two minor regressions introduced in #3097 related to commands
that open a commit message panel but don't set an onSwitchToEditor
function (an example is the commit message panel that appears when
moving a custom patch to a new commit):
- the "Press <c-o> to open menu" hint was hidden. That's wrong, it is
still possible to open the menu in this case. (And it still worked, we
just wouldn't show the hint.)
- invoking the "open in editor" menu item would silently do nothing. Now
we set a DisabledReason for the item in this case.
Some operations don't support switching to the editor from the commit message
panel; an example is the commit message panel that appears when moving a custom
patch into a new commit. Disable the "open in editor" menu entry in this case,
instead of silently doing nothing.
Previously we would hide it if no onSwitchToEditor function was set; that was
from a time when <c-o> was bound directly to the switch-to-editor command. Now
it is bound to showing a menu, and that menu is always available even if no
onSwitchToEditor function is set. (We rather need to disable the switch to
editor item _within_ that menu, see next commit.)

Hi, I'm happy using `lazygit` from quite a while. I've decided to give
back to community fraction of my time. I'm native polish speaker, and
seen that polish translation have some gaps.
I've added missing translation for polish language and improved existing
one. I've followed technical jargon used on

For easier diff comparison and feature maintenance, I've ordered keys to

By default we now search for substrings; you can search for multiple
substrings by separating them with spaces. Add a config option
`gui.filterMode` that can be set to 'fuzzy' to switch back to the
previous behavior.
Addresses #3373.
For die-hard fuzzy-searching fans it's probably in the way, so taking it out
makes fuzzy filtering work better. For substring filtering it always retains the
sort order anyway.
By default we now search for substrings; you can search for multiple substrings
by separating them with spaces. Add a config option gui.filterMode that can be
set to 'fuzzy' to switch back to the previous behavior.
It sorts them already, so it's unnecessary. In the next commit we use this same
code for substring searching too, and in that case we don't want to sort because
sorting is by Score, but we don't even fill in the score for substring
searching.
- **PR Description**
When checking out a remote branch by name, ask the user how they want to
check it out; the choices are to create a new local branch that tracks
the remote, or a detached head.
This is an alternative to #3371, and fixes#2312.
Lazygit has two ways to decide whether it needs to ask the user to
force-push:
1. if it knows ahead of time that the push will fail because the branch
has diverged, by looking at the incoming/outgoing information that it
shows as ↑3↓7.
2. by examining the error that comes back when the push has failed.
The second situation should happen only rarely, because lazygit fetches
every minute by default, so the ↑3↓7 information is usually up to date.
It might not be if the user turned off auto-fetch (or increased the
auto-fetch interval). However, in this case it's almost always harmful
to prompt the user to force-push, because we know that the reason for
diverging is that something was pushed to the remote, and we would wipe
it out by force-pushing. In such a situation, the more likely user
action is to pull the remote changes and then push normally again.
So just remove the second prompt, and replace it by a better error
message when we detect that updates were rejected remotely.
A little bit of history archeology reveals that the second prompt was
added at a time where we didn't have the first one yet, so at that time
it made sense to have it; but when the first prompt was added, we should
have removed the second.

Previously it wasn't possible to move an update-ref entry up or down
using ctrl-j and ctrl-k, or to delete an update-ref entry. For moving, a
work-around was to move the surrounding commits instead, but it's still
nice to be able to do it directly. Deleting is very much necessary
though, since there are situations where git adds the update-ref entries
but they are not wanted; one example is if you want to make a copy of a
branch and rebase to a different place, without the original branch
following it. (There's a long discussion about this
[here](https://public-inbox.org/git/adb7f680-5bfa-6fa5-6d8a-61323fee7f53@haller-berlin.de/).)
Update-ref todos can't be set to "drop" like other todos, because they
have no sha associated with them, so we need to delete them immediately.
We show a confirmation before doing that, because you'd have to abort
the rebase if you do it accidentally.
We allow range selecting normal todos and update-ref todos at the same
time; in that case, we delete all the update-ref todos and set all the
other ones to "drop". Not that this is an absolutely necessary feature,
but it wasn't hard to do.
So far, the only situation where we called SetSelectionRangeAndMode was one
where the range could only get larger (in startInteractiveRebaseWithEdit, in
which case update-ref todos can be inserted by the rebase). However, in the last
commit we introduced a new call site where the range can get smaller, including
being reduced to a single item. Since this is indistinguishable from a single
selection, set the mode to none in this case; without this, hitting escape would
seemingly do nothing because it collapses the empty range selection.

Remember which version of lazygit the user was last running, and show a
list of breaking changes since that version (if any) if the user
upgraded to a newer version.
It's a little unobvious how to test this manually, because we don't show
the popup for developer builds. You'll have to build with something like
`go build -ldflags="-X 'main.version=0.41.0'"` in order to test it.
This is an extremely stripped down version of #3261.
