Cannot confirm deletion of project

[Lakier15]

Version

0.14.23, 0.14.24, 0.14.25

Operating System

Linux

Distribution Method

AppImage (Linux)

Describe the issue

Opened GitButler after having manually checked out another branch of an existing project. When showed the initial screen suggesting to either switch back to gitbutler/workspace or remove the project, I select Remove project... but then the confirmation dialog is unclickable. Neither Remove nor Cancel work and the only way is to forcefully exit the application.

How to reproduce (Optional)

1. Open the GitButler application after having checked out a different branch in an existing GitButler project

2. Click Remove project...

3. Confirmation pops up, but cannot click Remove button (the cursor seems to stay shown as a "pointing hand" in the entire window). Nothing happens when hovering over Remove button (I think it should highlight)

4. Program is blocked, and cannot click on Cancel either. Only way is to force-close it by pressing on the x to close the window.
   However, the bar at the top is still responsive (File, View, Project, Help).

5. Restarting the program doesn't fix the problem (repeating steps 1-3 produce the same bugged behavior)

Expected behavior (Optional)

Remove button should be clickable and the project should be removed

Thanks a lot for reporting!

I did my best to reproduce the issue, and even tried to remove a project if it was the last one, but to no avail. The Remove button would work, even though there were some strange 'hangs' while trying to do so.

From the log it also doesn't seem like anything strange happened in the backend, so it might be a UI-only bug.

CC @estib-vega for good measure, maybe you have better luck with a reproduction.

[Lakier15]

Sounds like an UI-only bug since it freezes and it seems to become unresponsive.

Please let me know if I can expose some more logs from the AppImage.

In the logs, btw, this line appears after I force-closed and restart the app:

** (WebKitWebProcess:260958): ERROR **: 20:47:12.767: WebProcess didn't exit as expected after the UI process connection was closed

[estib-vega]

Thanks @Lakier15 for reporting

This should be fixed in the next release. Please feel free to reopen this issue if anything is still broken.

[Lakier15]

Thanks, as soon as the next release is out, I'll retest it.

So far the same bug happens on both 0.14.24 and 0.14.25
