This is true, I got a patch to fix this, but I'm not sure it should go in (e.g. read data files from current working directory). It's not common to be able to run C/gtk+ apps from the build directory, you should install them in a local prefix. > Features: > Displaying the subject after the parent shas etc would be nice. > Maybe forward/back buttons for taking you forward/back in your *browsing > history*? Say, you click on a parent, and then you want to get back. Showing the parent subject should be fairly easy to fix, I'll see if I can get that in. I have thought about a history-history, but I haven't felt the need to use it yet (also I don't think GitX has this), but it might be worth implementing. > Can one stage hunks somehow? Yes, you can click on the hunk header @@...@@ when viewing the diff in the commit view. You can also rightclick on this header and revert a hunk (or stage/unstage it from the context menu). > Cheers, > Michael > -- Jesse van den Kieboom Personal: http://www.icecrew.nl Professional: http://www.novowork.com
