spdr870 / gitextensions

the submenu width on File->Recent Repositories is truncated to be unusable

see:
http://imagebin.ca/view/GtUrVa.html

Almost all windows and dialogs can not be closed with the escape key.

About
Commandline usage
Open Repository dialog
many many more.

Also, many dialogs have maximize button or are resizeable but have no need to be and are ugly because of it.

If the GitExtensions install folder is not part of the PATH then gitex.cmd is not useful. If gitex.cmd is executed from a working directory other than the gitex folder, then it can not execute GitExtensions.exe

To fix replace its contents with:

@setlocal @for /F "delims=" %%I in ("%~dp0") do @set gitex_folder=%%~fI @set PATH=%gitex_folder%;%PATH% @start /B GitExtensions.exe %*

gitextension v1.72

execute:
GitExtensions.exe browse asdf

And it crashes. The crash is from line 52 of Program.cs

GitCommands.Settings.WorkingDir = args[2].Substring(0, args[2].LastIndexOf('\'));

args[2] does not contain a backslash, therefore LastIndexOf return -1 therefore Substring throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The 'File History' window (double-click on a file in the 'Diff' tab of a commit) displays the whole commit
message in the 'Name' column (which should be renamed to 'Message', btw.).
It should only display the first line of the commit message (as any other git command does).

Hi Henk,

Is it possible to add a feature to save window positions please?

If GitExtensions main browser is opened from the RMB context menu, it is windowed, but from the start menu it opens full screen. Any changes changes made to the size are not remembered for later opening. An autosave of last window size and position would help a great deal on high resolution displays.

If you do not feel window size and position should be added, could the start menu opening be set to windowed which would keep it consistent with the context menu method?

Regards

Squelch

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:


    


When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Lable for check box should be "Checkout", not "Chechout".

Should be a simple issue to fix.

The default .gitignore file contains the line:
[Db]ebug*/

It should be:
