The click handler of MainViewController was registered as a global handler, so
it was used when a side panel was focused that doesn't have a
SwitchToFocusedMainViewController attached (e.g. Status, Worktrees, or
Submodules). This handler would then push the main view context, but with the
code that is meant only for toggling between the main view pair contexts, i.e.
with taking over the parentContext from the otherContext, which doesn't have one
at that point. This would later lead to a crash in onClick because the
parentContext was nil.
Fix this by splitting the click handler in two, one for when it already has the
focus, and one for toggling from the other view, and make these focus specific.
I'm not aware of any real scenario where this can happen, but we have seen one
stack trace where it crashed with an out-of-bounds error in the range expression
below, so there must be a way. And it seems better to guard against it anyway,
rather than assuming it can't happen.
This now allows for leaving the status panel and returning back to the
same log command. Previously any return to the status panel would result
in the next command in the list being shown. Now, you need to press `a`,
with a log command being rendered, to rotate to the next
allBranchesLogCmd.
In one case it was actually called *before* making a commit (when switching from
the commit message panel to committing in the editor). And clearing the
preserved message is the only thing it does, so name it after what it does
rather than when it's called.
Previously it would only clear the message if the panel had been opened with
preserveMessage=true; we don't need this check, because callers know how they
opened the panel, and whether they want to clear the message.
This is no change in behavior because OnCommitSuccess only clears the message
when the commit message panel was opened with preserveMessage=true, which it
isn't in the case of creating a tag.
And this is in fact the desired behavior, because we don't want creating a tag
to interfere with preserving commit messages in any way.
The default binding for ConfirmInEditor is <a-enter>, which has two problems:
- some terminal emulators don't support it, including the default terminal on
Mac (Terminal.app)
- on Windows it is bound to toggling full-screen
Ideally we would use <c-enter> instead (and Command-Enter on Mac), but neither
is possible without https://github.com/gdamore/tcell/issues/671, so for the time
being add an alternate keybinding which works everywhere.
Show both bindings in the footer of the commit description panel if they are
both non-null. While we're at it, fix the footer for the case where either or
both of the keybindings are set to <disabled>.
And finally, change "commit" to "submit" in that footer; we use the same panel
also for creating tags, in which case "commit" is not quite right.
It's never called, the binding ListController.HandleGotoBottom wins.
The functionality of loading more commits is implemented by GetOnFocus, and this
way it works not only for '>', but also for other navigation keys like page
down.
This in itself is not an improvement, because hashes are unique (they are shared
between real commits and rebase todos, but there are so few of those that it
doesn't matter). However, it becomes an improvement once we also store parent
hashes in the same pool; but the real motivation for this change is to also
reuse the hash pointers in Pipe objects later in the branch. This will be a big
win because in a merge-heavy git repo there are many more Pipe instances than
commits.
This makes it easier to copy diff hunks and paste them into code. We only strip
the prefixes if the copied lines are either all '+' or all '-' (possibly
including context lines), otherwise we keep them. We also keep them when parts
of a hunk header is included in the selection; this is useful for copying a diff
hunk and pasting it into a github comment, for example.
A not-quite-correct edge case is when you select the '--- a/file.txt' line of a
diff header on its own; in this case we copy it as '-- a/file.txt' (same for the
'+++' line). This is probably uncommon enough that it's not worth fixing (it's
not trivial to fix because we don't know that we're in a header).
This is very similar to what we are doing for staging or discarding hunks in the
Files panel. Git doesn't allow applying patches with a zero context size (unless
you use the --unidiff-zero option, which is discouraged).
The long story: I want to call this function from RefsHelper; however, I can't
make WorkingTreeHelper a field of RefsHelper because RefsHelper is already a
field in WorkingTreeHelper, so that would be a circular dependency.
The shorter story: there's really little reason to have to instantiate a helper
object in order to call a simple function like this. Long term I would like to
get to a state where a lot more of these helper functions are free-standing, and
you pass in the data they need.
While at it, simplify the implementation of AnyStagedFiles and AnyTrackedFiles
to one-liners.
It's the same, really, except that GetCheckedOutRef() does a check if any
branches exist and returns nil if not. Since we are accessing the returned
branch unconditionally without checking for nil, it seems this check is not
needed here. (The functions we are touching here are called from handlers that
are guarded with itemSelected or singleItemSelected, so we know that at least
one branch exists.)
The goal is to get rid of the dependency to refsHelper.
In this commit this is only possible by pressing '0' in a side panel; we'll add
mouse clicking later in the branch.
Also, you can't really do anything in the focused view except press escape to
leave it again. We'll add some more functionality in a following commit.
Previously we would render the diff for a directory to the main/secondary pair,
but a diff for a file to the staging/stagingSecondary pair. (And similar for
commit files: main/secondary for directories, but
patchBuilding/patchBuildingSecondary for files.)
I always found this confusing and couldn't really understand why we are doing
this; but now it gets in my way because I want to attach a controller to
main/secondary so that they can be focused. So change it to always use the main
context pair for everything we render from a side panel.
We do this because
- it's closer to what you would do on the command line
- it simplifies the code a bit
- it will allow us to support cherry-picking merge commits.
We treat the .git/sequencer/todo file as read-only. Technically it seems it
would be possible to treat it as modifiable in the same way as
.git/rebase-merge/git-rebase-todo, effectively turning a cherry-pick or revert
that stops at a conflict into an interactive rebase; however, git itself doesn't
allow this (there is no "git cherry-pick --edit-todo"), so it seems safer not to
rely on it.
Theoretically it would be possible to allow modifying the rebase todos when a
cherry-pick or revert conflicts in the middle of a rebase. However, it would
introduce a bit of complexity to support this, as we would have to be able to
distinguish between rebasing todos and cherry-picking/reverting todos, which we
currently can't; it could also be a bit error-prone as far as edge cases are
concerned. And it's really a pretty uncommon situation, so it doesn't seem worth
it, and we just forbid all modifications to todos whenever we are cherry-picking
or reverting.
It is useful to see if the conflicted commit was a "pick" or an "edit". What's
more, we're about to add support for showing cherry-picks and reverts, and
seeing that a conflicted commit was a revert is important because its diff is
backwards compared to the diff of the conflicting files in the Files panel.
This is equivalent in the current state of the code, but it will no longer be
after the next commit, because we will introduce a new status value
StatusConflicted. And in a later PR we might add yet another value
StatusCherryPicking to distinguish rebase todos from cherry-pick todos; using
commit.IsTODO is a safer way to check whether a commit is any of these.
When you are in the middle of a rebase, and you cherry-pick a commit which
conflicts, it helps to be clear on whether you are prompted to continue the
cherry-pick or the rebase.
