2007-09-14git-gui: add some strings to translationMichele Ballabio
Most of these changes were suggested by Shawn Pearce in an answer to Johannes Schindelin. Some strings for the blame module were added too. [sp: Minor edits in blame module formatting] Signed-off-by: Michele Ballabio <barra_cuda@katamail.com> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-09-02Mark strings for translation.Christian Stimming
The procedure [mc ...] will translate the strings through msgcat. Strings must be enclosed in quotes, not in braces, because otherwise xgettext cannot extract them properly, although on the Tcl side both delimiters would work fine. [jes: I merged the later patches to that end.] Signed-off-by: Christian Stimming <stimming@tuhh.de> Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2007-07-09git-gui: Always use absolute path to all git executablesShawn O. Pearce
Rather than making the C library search for git every time we want to execute it we now search for the main git wrapper at startup, do symlink resolution, and then always use the absolute path that we found to execute the binary later on. This should save us some cycles, especially on stat challenged systems like Cygwin/Win32. While I was working on this change I also converted all of our existing pipes ([open "| git ..."]) to use two new pipe wrapper functions. These functions take additional options like --nice and --stderr which instructs Tcl to take special action, like running the underlying git program through `nice` (if available) or redirect stderr to stdout for capture in Tcl.

2007-07-05git-gui: Correct resizing of remote branch delete dialogShawn O. Pearce
The status field of the remote branch delete dialog was marked to expand, which meant that if the user grew the window vertically most of the new vertical height was given to the status field and not to the branch list. Since the status field is just a single line of text there is no reason for it to gain additional height, instead we should make sure all additional height goes to the branch list.

2007-05-28git-gui: Allow users to delete remote branchesShawn O. Pearce
Git has supported remote branch deletion for quite some time, but I've just never gotten around to supporting it in git-gui. Some workflows have users push short-term branches to some remote Git repository, then delete them a few days/weeks later when that topic has been fully merged into the main trunk. Typically in that style of workflow the user will want to remove the branches they created. We now offer a "Delete..." option in the Push menu, right below the generic "Push..." option. When the user opens our generic delete dialog they can select a preconfigured remote, or enter a random URL. We run `git ls-remote $url` to obtain the list of branches and tags known there, and offer this list in a listbox for the user to select one or more from. Like our local branch delete dialog we offer the user a way to filter their selected branch list down to only those branches that have been merged into another branch. This is a very common operation as the user will likely want to select a range of topic branches, but only delete them if they have been merged into some sort of common trunk. Unfortunately our remote merge base detection is not nearly as strict as the local branch version. We only offer remote heads as the test commit (not any local ones) and we require that all necessary commits to successfully run git-merge-base are available locally. If one or more is missing we suggest that the user run a fetch first. Since the Git remote protocol doesn't let us specify what the tested commit was when we evaluated our decision to execute the remote delete there is a race condition here. The user could do a merge test against the trunk, determine a topic branch was fully merged, but before they can start pushing the delete request another user could fast-forward the remote topic branch to a new commit that is not merged into the trunk. The delete will arrive after, and remove the topic, even though it was not fully merged. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
