git-cola v1.8.3¶
Usability, bells and whistles¶
The diff viewer now has an “Options” menu which can be used to set “git diff” options. This can be used to ignore whitespace changes or to show a change with its surrounding function as context.
git cola now remembers your commit message and will restore it when git cola is restarted.
Ctrl+M can now be used to toggle the “Amend last commit” checkbox in the commit message editor.
Deleting remote branches can now be done from the “Branch” menu.
The commit message editor now has a built-in spell checker.
Fixes¶
We now avoid invoking external diffs when showing diffstats.
The Status tool learned to reselect files when refreshing.
git cola now remembers whether it has been maximized and will restore the maximized state when git cola is restarted.
Performance is now vastly improved when staging hundreds or thousands of files.
git cola was not correctly saving repo-specific configuration.
