There are two possible fixes for this bug, and they differ in behavior when
rewording a commit. The one I chose here always splits at the first line feed,
which means that for an improperly formatted commit message such as this one:
This is a very long multi-line subject,
which you shouldn't really use in git.
And this is the body (we call it "description" in lazygit).
we split after the first line instead of after the first paragraph. This is
arguably not what the original author meant, but splitting after the first
paragraph doesn't really work well in lazygit, because we would try to put both
lines into the one-line subject field of the message panel, and you'd only see
the second and not even know that there are more.
The other potential fix would have been to join subject and description with two
line feeds instead of one in JoinCommitMessageAndDescription; this would have
fixed our bug in the same way, but would result in splitting the above message
after the second line instead of the first. I think that's worse, so I decided
for the first fix.
While we're at it, simplify the code a little bit; strings.Cut is documented to
return (s, "") when the separator is not found, so there's no need to do this on
our side.
We do have to trim spaces on the description now, to support the regular reword
case where subject and body are separated by a blank line.
Without this it's not reliably possible to ask whether a given view is visible
by asking
windowHelper.TopViewInWindow(context.GetWindowName()) == context.GetView()
because there could be transient, invisible contexts after it in the Z order.
I guess it's a bit of a coincidence that this has never been a problem so far.
The output of the GetWindowDimensions function is hard to understand just by looking at it,
so I've added a helper function in the tests to render the window layout as text, so that
in order to create a new test you just come up with some args and paste the output as the
expected output.
This has the same downsides that any snapshot-based testing has: it's more brittle than
targeted assertions. But it is much easier to make sense of these snapshots than it is
to make sense of more fine-grained assertions, and I like the fact that these tests can
serve as documentation.
We are also removing the single-character padding on the left/right edges of the bottom
line because it's unnecessary
Unfortunately we need to create views for each spacer: it's not enough to just
layout the existing views with padding inbetween because gocui only renders
views meaning if there is no view in a given position, that position will just
render whatever was there previously (at least that's what I recall from talking
this through with Stefan: I could be way off).

refreshWorktrees re-renders the branches view, because the branches view shows
worktrees against branches. This means that when both BRANCHES and WORKTREES are
requested to be refreshed, the branches view would be rendered twice in short
succession. This causes an ugly visual glitch when force-pushing a branch,
because when pushing is done, we would see the ↑4↓9 status come back from under
the Pushing status for a brief moment, to be replaced with a green checkmark a
moment later.
Fix this by including the worktree refresh in the branches refresh when both are
requested. This means that the two are no longer running in parallel for an
async refresh, but hopefully that's not so bad.
When pulling/pushing/fast-forwarding a branch, show this state in the branches
list for that branch for as long as the operation takes, to make it easier to
see when it's done (without having to stare at the status bar in the lower
left).
This will hopefully help with making these operations feel more predictable, now
that we no longer show a loader panel for them.
Very similar to WithWaitingStatus, except that the status is shown in a view
next to the affected item, rather than in the status bar.
Not used by anything yet; again, committing separately to get smaller commits.
This is not a complete fix, but it's good enough to fix the spurious test
failures of submodule/reset.go. We have some vague hope to fix this in a more
sustainable way by somehow improving our concurrency model fundamentally, but
that's a more long-term undertaking, and it's annoying that this test fails so
often, so let's fix it in this way for now.
A new gui config flag 'portraitMode':<string> is added to influence when
LazyGit stacks its UI components on top of one another.
The accepted values are 'auto', 'always', 'never'.
'auto': enter portrait mode when terminal becomes narrow enough
'always': always use portrait mode unconditional of the terminal
dimensions
'never': never use portraid mode

Previously there was no way to render a view's search status without also moving the cursor
to the current search match. This caused issues where we wanted to display the status
after leaving the view and coming back, or when beginning a new search from within the
view.
This commit separates the two use cases so we only move the cursor when we're actually
selecting the next search match
We do this for two reasons:
- when popping up a credentials prompt, it looks distracting if the waiting
status keeps spinning while the user is typing the password
- the task that updates the waiting status periodically would keep the program
busy, so integration tests would wait forever for the program to become idle
again
This can be useful when you know that a cherry-picked commit would conflict at
the tip of your branch, but doesn't at the beginning of the branch (or
somewhere in the middle). In that case you want to be able to edit the commit
before where you want to insert the cherry-picked commits, and then paste to
insert them into the todo list at that point.
This is useful to disable items that are not applicable right now because of
some condition (e.g. the "delete branch" menu item when the currently
checked-out branch is selected).
When a DisabledReason is set on a menu item, we
- show it in a tooltip (below the regular tooltip of the item, if it has one)
- strike through the item's key, if it has one
- show an error message with the DisabledReason if the user tries to invoke the
command
This fixes two minor problems with the prompts:
1. When pressing shift-A in the local commits view, it would first prompt
whether to stage all files, and then it would prompt whether to amend the
commit at all. This doesn't make sense, it needs to be the other way round.
2. When pressing shift-A on the head commit in an interactive rebase, we would
ask whether they want to amend the last commit, like when pressing shift-A in
the files view. While this is technically correct, the fact that we're
amending the head commit in this case is just an implementation detail, and
from the user's point of view it's better to use the same prompt as we do for
any other commit.
To fix these, we remove the confirmation panel from AmendHelper.AmendHead() and
instead add it at the two call sites, so that we have more control over this.
This encapsulates the logic to make sure we have something to commit; which is
to
- auto-stage all files if no files are staged and the SkipNoStagedFilesWarning
config is on
- otherwise, prompt the user whether they want to stage all files
- error out if we don't have any files at all
Of these, the first one was only done when committing with the built-in commit
message panel; there's no reason why it shouldn't also be done when committing
with the editor, or when amending, and now it is.
When editing a commit, the index of the current commit can change; for example,
when merge commits are involved, or when working with stacked branches where
"update-ref" commands may be added above the selected commit.
Reselect the current commit after pressing "e"; this requires doing the refresh
blocking on the main thread. (Another option that I considered was to use a
SYNC refresh, and then select the new line with an OnUIThread inside the Then
function. This also works, but results in a very visible lag.)
This is useful for when you begin to type the message in lazygit's commit panel,
and then realize that you'd rather use your editor's more powerful editing
capabilities. Pressing <c-o> will take you right there.
It determines the yellow/red status by getting the merge-base between the
current branch and its upstream; while we're rebasing, the current branch is
HEAD, so it tried to get the merge-base between HEAD and HEAD{u}, which doesn't
work. Fix this by passing the name of the checked-out branch separately.
This also fixes a bug where after the rebase each commit in the commits view had a tick against it because we hadn't
refreshed the view since the base commit was no longer marked
This was on oversight on my part: I assumed that the --work-tree arg was
always intended for use with linked worktrees which have a .git file
pointing back to the repo.
I'm honestly confused now: seems like there are three kinds of worktrees:
* the main worktree of a non-bare repo
* a linked worktree (with its own gitdir in the repo's worktrees/ dir)
* a random folder which you specify as a worktree with the --work-tree arg
I'm pretty sure the --work-tree arg is only intended to be used with this
third kind or workree
The proper fix is to actually have these two functions share code,
or for views to be able to manage their own heights based on their contents.
But I want to get this out for the sake of a Lazygit Anniversary release.
Now that we refresh upon focus, we can scrap this file watching code.
Stefan says few git UIs use file watching, and I understand why: the
reason this code was problematic in the first place is that watching
files is expensive and if you have too many open file handles that
can cause problems.
Importantly: this code that's being removed was _already_ dead.
