Shawn O. Pearce	d41b43eb4c	git-gui: Refactor branch switch to support detached head This is a major rewrite of the way we perform switching between branches and the subsequent update of the working directory. Like core Git we now use a single code path to perform all changes: our new checkout_op class. We also use it for branch creation/update as it integrates the tracking branch fetch process along with a very basic merge (fast-forward and reset only currently). Because some users have literally hundreds of local branches we use the standard revision picker (with its branch filtering tool) to select the local branch, rather than keeping all of the local branches in the Branch menu. The branch menu listing out all of the available branches is simply not sane for those types of huge repositories. Users can now checkout a detached head by ticking off the option in the checkout dialog. This option is off by default for the obvious reason, but it can be easily enabled for any local branch by simply checking it. We also detach the head if any non local branch was selected, or if a revision expression was entered. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>	18 years ago
Shawn O. Pearce	5b6ffff644	git-gui: GUI support for running 'git remote prune <name>' In some workflows it is common for a large number of temporary branches to be created in a remote repository, get fetched to clients that typically only use git-gui, and then later have those branches deleted from the remote repository once they have been fully merged into all destination branches. Users of git-gui would obviously like to have their local tracking branches cleaned up for them, otherwise their local tracking branch namespace would grow out of control. The best known way to remove these tracking branches is to run "git remote prune <remotename>". Even though it is more of a Porcelain command than plumbing I'm invoking it through the UI, because frankly I don't see a reason to reimplement its ls-remote output filtering and config file parsing. A new configuration option (gui.pruneduringfetch) can be used to automatically enable running "git remote prune <remotename>" after the fetch of that remote also completes successfully. This is off by default as it require an additional network connection and is not very fast on Cygwin if a large number of tracking branches have been removed (due to the 2 fork+exec calls per branch).

Shawn O. Pearce	a35d65d9c8	git-gui: Move console procs into their own namespace To help modularize git-gui better I'm isolating the code and variables required to handle our little console windows into their own namespace. This way we can say console::new rather than new_console, and the hidden internal procs to create the window and read data from our filehandle are off in their own private little land, where most users don't see them.

Shawn O. Pearce	f522c9b5ed	git-gui: Refactor into multiple files to save my sanity I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code. Since most of the program is organized into different units of functionality and not all users will need all units immediately on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us. This should help not only to better organize the source, but it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl parser does not need to read as much script before it can show the UI. In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half of git-gui now. Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime location. This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be $(gitexecdir)/../share. We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile, as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory. I'm hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building from source. I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files. All of the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library files. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>	18 years ago
