- * Checkout $PARENT version to working directory, overwriting current
- version. ($PARENT is HEAD, except when amending).
-
- * Update index with $PARENT version but leave working directory
- alone.
+ * Add file to .gitignore or info/excludes.
* Populate the pull menu with local branches.
- * Populate the pull menu with default merge branch from each remote.
-
* Make use of the new default merge data stored in repo-config.
- * Indicate what the current branch is.
+ * Checkout a different local branch.
- * Checkout or create a different local branch.
+ * Push any local branch to a remote branch.
- * Delete a local branch.
+ * Merge any local branches through a real merge UI.
- * Store user preferences (like font, window layout) in global
- repo-config.
+ * Allow user to define keyboard shortcuts for frequently used fetch
+ or merge operations. Or maybe just define a keyboard shortcut
+ for default fetch/default merge of current branch is enough;
+ but I do know a few users who merge a couple of common branches
+ also into the same branch so one default isn't quite enough.
* Better organize fetch/push/pull console windows.
* Show a shortlog of the last couple of commits in the main window,
to give the user warm fuzzy feelings that we have their data
- saved.
+ saved. Actually this may be the set of commits not yet in
+ the upstream (aka default merge branch remote repository).
+
+ * GUI configuration editor for options listed in
+ git.git/Documentation/config.txt. Ideally this would
+ parse that file and generate the options dialog from
+ the documentation itself, and include the help text
+ from the documentation as part of the UI somehow.
+
+Known bugs:
+
+ * git-gui sometimes just closes on Windows with no error message.
+ I'm not sure what the problem is here. I suspect the wish
+ process is just terminating due to a segfault or something,
+ as the do_quit proc in git-gui doesn't run. It often seems to
+ occur while writing a commit message in the buffer. Odd.
