git-gui: Don't crash in citool mode on initial commit.

2007-02-21T06:33:59Z

Attempting to use `git citool` to create an initial commit caused git-gui to crash with a Tcl error as it tried to add the newly born branch to the non-existant branch menu. Moving this code to after the normal commit cleanup logic resolves the issue, as we only have a branch menu if we are not in singlecommit mode. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Include browser in our usage message.

2007-02-21T06:24:57Z

Now that the 'browser' subcommand can be used to startup the tree browser, it should be listed as a possible subcommand option in our usage message. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Change summary of git-gui.

2007-02-21T05:11:02Z

Since git-gui does more than create commits, it is unfair to call it "a commit creation tool". Instead lets just call it a graphical user interface. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Display all authors of git-gui.

2007-02-21T05:11:01Z

Now that git-gui has been released to the public as part of Git 1.5.0 I am starting to see some work from other people beyond myself and Paul. Consequently the copyright for git-gui is not strictly the two of us anymore, and these others deserve to have some credit given to them. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Use mixed path for docs on Cygwin.

2007-02-21T05:11:01Z

The Firefox browser requires that a URL use / to delimit directories. This is instead of \, as \ gets escaped by the browser into its hex escape code and then relative URLs are incorrectly resolved, Firefox no longer sees the directories for what they are. Since we are handing the browser a true URL, we better use the standard / for directories. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Correct crash when saving options in blame mode.

2007-02-18T07:12:32Z

Martin Waitz noticed that git-gui crashed while saving the user's options out if the application was started in blame mode. This was caused by the do_save_config procedure invoking reshow_diff incase the number of context lines was modified by the user. Because we bypassed main window UI setup to enter blame mode we did not set many of the globals which were accessed by reshow_diff, and reading unset variables is an error in Tcl. Aside from moving the globals to be set earlier, I also modified reshow_diff to not invoke clear_diff if there is no path currently in the diff viewer. This way reshow_diff does not crash when in blame mode due to the $ui_diff command not being defined. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Expose the browser as a subcommand.

2007-02-16T05:24:03Z

Some users may find being able to browse around an arbitrary branch to be handy, so we now expose our graphical browser through `git gui browse `. Yes, I'm being somewhat lazy and making the user give us the name of the branch to browse. They can always enter HEAD. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Create new branches from a tag.

2007-02-15T06:34:40Z

I'm missing the possibility to base a new branch on a tag. The following adds a tag drop down to the new branch dialog. Signed-off-by: Martin Koegler Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: Print version on the console.

2007-02-14T05:28:00Z

Like `git version`, `git gui version` (or `git gui --version`) shows the version of git-gui, in case the user needs to know this, without looking at it in the GUI about dialog. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

git-gui: More consistently display the application name.

2007-02-14T05:10:20Z

I started to find it confusing that git-gui would refer to itself as git-citool when it was started through the citool hardlink, or with the citool subcommand. What was especially confusing was the options dialog and the about dialog, as both seemed to imply they were somehow different from the git-gui versions. In actuality there is no difference at all. Now we just call our options menu item 'Options...' (skipping the application name) and our About dialog now always shows git-gui within the short description (above the copyleft notice) and in the version field. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce
