Support Git Config Include Directives

[ghost]

Describe the feature that you'd like
Git Graph does not seem to be recognising the includeIf gitconfig property.

For example:
My current .gitconfig file is:

[user]
	email = main_email_address
	name = user_name
[includeIf "gitdir:/data/dev/WORK/"]
    path = /data/dev/dotfiles/gitconfigwork
[push]
        default = simple
[fetch]
        prune = true

includeIf checks if the path exists on the disk and loads additional configuration if the path is found. In my case /data/dev/dotfiles/gitconfigwork only specifies different email address for my work projects in WORK folder as below:

[user]
	email = work_email_address

I do appreciate I can update details per project manually from Git Graph settings, but it would be nice if Git Graph could read those settings too

Thanks for raising this feature request! I wasn’t aware of includeIf, so thanks for also providing some background on it.

Git Graph currently uses the commands git config --list --local and git config --list --global to read the local and global config of a repository. I’ll investigate what changes I need to make so the extension can support includeIf, and implement it in an upcoming release.

Thanks a lot, no rush, your extension is already fantastic. This would make it even better for me ;-)

I can see that you have started implementing this feature, please ping me in if you need any testers.

Hi @caasi-dev,

I’ll be publishing a beta release for this functionality in the next few hours, which will include this feature. I’ll reply once it is available.

[ghost]

Thank you !

This will be available in v1.27.0.

If you'd like to use it before the next release, you can download v1.27.0-beta.0, and install it following the instructions provided here.

I will be installing fresh system tonight, so this will be a perfect time to test this, thank you.

all repositories identified correctly, thank you for implementing this :-)
