Ref-name inputs only validated after the fact, so a space typed or pasted into a branch name showed "Branch name contains invalid characters" and disabled Create. Branch-name fields (New Branch, from a revision and in several repositories, Rename Branch, New Worktree, GitHub New Remote Branch) now clean the name while typing: forbidden characters are dropped and whitespace becomes '-', without stacking separators, keeping the caret in place. Shared via src/platform/gitRefName.ts and the useSanitizedField hook in src/ui.

The diff and merge viewers had no overview lane, so changes outside the viewport were invisible. The scrollbar now marks every change, coloured by type (modified, inserted, deleted, conflict), in the side-by-side view (both panes), the aligned view (one stripe over the shared scroller), the unified view and the three-way merge editor; clicking a mark jumps to the change. Marks span the lane's width from the first to the last changed line with a 2px minimum. The colours are new --diff-*-stripe theme tokens (Darcula, Light and High-contrast values), mapped from ERROR_STRIPE_COLOR on .icls import and set in the Harbor Night theme template.

In a Unity project, Add File to Git for a new asset under Assets/ now takes its .meta along: an untracked .meta that already exists is listed in the same confirmation, and one Unity writes later is added once the asset's addition has succeeded. The ask / silently / never setting applies as before; pending metadata is dropped when the asset is unstaged or deleted, or the project or repository changes. File-operation paths are compared in IPC form, so they match the status paths on Windows.
Closes#1429

A successful commit cleared every inclusion override in the Commit tool window, so files the user had unchecked fell back to included and could go into the next commit by accident. commitChanges now drops the overrides (checks and per-file block exclusions) only for the changes that went into the commit; files left out stay excluded.

Refreshing the combined Git Log of several repositories merged every repository's prefetched candidates into the result, so 300 loaded rows could grow into thousands and the graph layout took seconds. A refresh now keeps the loaded window through its last surviving commit (plus new arrivals); older history comes in with paging as before. Commit selection no longer rebuilds the layout when linear-history collapsing is off, and current-branch highlighting uses the backend's reachability, falling back to a single traversal from all heads.

* perf(vcs): filter the Git log with git log instead of a background search index
The log built a persistent inverted index of every commit's message, authors and
changed paths in the background, with a progress bar above the commit list, and
walked trees itself to filter by path. Building it took minutes on large
repositories, and filters were slow until it finished.
- Text: plain text uses `git log --fixed-strings --grep` (with
`--regexp-ignore-case` unless Match Case is on); text of 4+ hex digits also
matches hash prefixes. Regex filters still match in-process.
- Paths: `git log -- :(literal)<paths>` replaces the in-process path walk and
its per-commit tree cache. It uses git's history simplification and, when the
repository has a changed-path commit-graph, its Bloom filters. Glob characters
in a path are literal.
- Authors match against the commit metadata cache.
- Removed the search tables, `index_log`, the `vcs_log_index` command and the
indexing progress bar. The commit metadata cache stays.
* docs(contributing): ask for screenshots only when a change alters what users see
Removing a feature together with its UI, copy-only and non-visual changes now
describe what was checked instead of attaching before/after screenshots.
* fix(vcs): match case-insensitive non-ASCII Git log text in process
git folds case only for ASCII under the C locale it runs with, so a
case-insensitive filter like "ärger" missed "Ärger". Such text is now
matched against commit messages directly. Path and text selection also
ignore log.showSignature and log.follow from the user's config.
The Changes view's Delete… for unversioned files had no key. When every selected
file is unversioned, Delete/Backspace now opens the same confirmation (files go to
the Trash) and the menu item shows the platform's delete key; Delete on a changelist
group still deletes the changelist.

Show Diff (Cmd+D) in the Commit window or the Git window's Local Changes opened the
file still selected in the Project view, which keeps its selection while another view
has focus, instead of the change selected in the tree. Show Diff and Compare with
Branch or Revision now take the action's paths first, then the changes tree's
selection while it has focus, then the Project view's selection, then the active file.

Agent conversations: an editor tab mounts only while it is active, so switching back to a
task rebuilt the whole conversation, parsed and sanitized every message again, and fetched
all entries again, which replaced them and rendered everything a second time. Loaded entries
are already kept current by the task's events, so they are no longer fetched again; rendered
Markdown is cached by text; and a conversation opened at its end renders its last 40 entries
first and the earlier ones in batches behind it (all at once when a scroll position or Find
needs them).
Git log: with branch-aware layout (#1076) a commit's lane was its branch's global layout
index, so a repository with many branches drew lanes dozens of columns apart, joined by
diagonals across the row. Each row boundary and node level is now packed side by side in
layout order; adjacent rows share their boundary, so lines stay joined. The column header row
is hidden by default and can be shown from View Options › Columns › Column Headers, where
columns are resized and reordered.
Lane changes bent within half a row as S-curves. A lane change and the vertical half of the neighbouring row that continues it now meet halfway between the lanes, so edges between adjacent rows run straight from node to node; only drawn positions change. Fixes#800
Selecting one outgoing commit shows its message, revision, author and time above its files; a Group by Directory toggle switches the files between tree and flat list and is remembered. Fixes#1373
Git Log could lose commits when filtering by several paths, draw wrong
ancestry after filtering or collapsing rows, and open the wrong
repository in multi-root views. The graph is now projected over the full
commit DAG and laid out in Bek order, so filtered and collapsed views keep
the real ancestry; each log view keeps its own filters and requests.
Commit metadata, messages and path changes are kept in a persistent index
(by object id, in the IDE's cache directory) with seekable paging, and the
log gains parent-aware merge comparisons, a lazy revision browser,
read-only logs of repositories outside the project (opened with command
execution disabled), commit bookmarks, configurable built-in columns and
batched commit details. The adapted IntelliJ algorithms are attributed in
THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.md.

An empty commit message field now starts with the file `commit.template`
names (any git config level; `~/` and repository-relative paths resolve
as git resolves them), without its `#` comment lines, since commits keep
the message as written. It is filled when the repository opens or
changes and when a commit clears the field; a typed message is never
replaced, and a prepared merge / cherry-pick / revert message still
takes precedence.
Fixes#1285
Git › Show History for Selection, as in IDEA: from Git › Current File and the editor's Git menu it opens a tab with only the commits that changed the selected lines (or the caret line), newest first, and the block before and after each commit in the diff viewer. Only Show History for the whole file existed before. git log -L tracks the lines across renames; the selection is first mapped through unsaved and uncommitted edits to HEAD's lines, and those edits come first as Local Changes. The query is its own ide-vcs module and cancellable command (vcs_block_history), read-only and allowed in Restricted Mode (--no-ext-diff --no-textconv).

Unversioned files in the commit view could be added or ignored but not deleted. Their context menu now offers Delete…, as IDEA's Changes view does: it asks first and moves the files to the Trash, only when every selected file is unversioned.
Show History picked its repository with repoOf, which routes a nested repository's own root to the enclosing repository (right for the commit view's submodule pointer), so a submodule folder listed its gitlink history in the parent repository. A repository's own root now opens that repository's history, as in IDEA; other paths still use the innermost repository.

New Branch dropped its suggestion when validateBranchName rejected it, and the current branch always exists, so a plain New Branch from HEAD always opened empty; the test never seeded the local branches. The suggestion is kept, the dialog shows that the branch exists from the start and Create stays disabled until the name changes; other prefilled prompts (Rename Branch) keep showing errors only after editing.
The find bar belonged to the pane and every bar shared one query, and its effect re-ran the search and moved the caret whenever the active tab changed, so switching files dragged the previous file's search into the next one and lost its caret. Each tab now has its own find bar with its own query and options, as with IDEA's per-editor search session. The last search only pre-fills a newly opened bar (or the selection does) and drives Find Next without a bar; showing a bar again only highlights, and the caret moves only when the query or an option changes in that bar. Bars of closed tabs are dropped.

Sync with Deployed opens in its own window, one per project window. It lists local files next to the server's copies, with filters, content and binary comparison, and an embedded side-by-side diff whose local side can be edited. The selected file can be synchronized (Enter) without closing the window.
The window is the `deployment` kind of the auxiliary windows that Settings and comparisons use. A cancelled close in it stops its project window from closing. The preview uses the vcs diff viewer through its `diff` editor kind. Also covers #811 (compare with the deployed versions).

A plain New Branch (single and multi-repository) now opens with the current branch name, like JetBrains IDEs, so a related branch is an edit away; detached HEAD stays empty. New Branch from a local ref now applies its <ref>-copy suggestion, which was computed but never used.

Clicking a repository in the Repository filter menu checks or unchecks it instead of replacing the selection, so the log shows any subset of the project's repositories; unchecking the last one shows all.
Below the outgoing commits, the Push dialog lists the files they change: all outgoing commits' combined changes by default, or the selected commit's (Show All Commits goes back). Selecting a file shows its diff beside the tree inside the modal dialog. The multi-repository Push dialog does the same for the selected repository or commit.
With a User or text filter, the Git Log graph opened a lane for every commit whose parent the filter hid; the lanes never closed and filled the graph with arrows, since git keeps the real parents for these filters.
The log now links each shown commit to its nearest shown ancestors, dashed where the link passes hidden commits (the date range and No Merges count as hidden there too); a page's last commits are linked by walking on past the page. Collapse Linear Branches keeps those dashed links.
Fixes#872
Commit view › Group By gains "Staging State". When it is on, Changes splits into Staged Changes and Unstaged Changes; a partially staged file appears in both, and its diff compares HEAD with the Index under Staged and the Index with the working copy under Unstaged. The choice is remembered across sessions.

Diff tabs, including the preview tab, get Maximize Editor / Restore Size in their toolbar (reusing Hide All Tool Windows). Show Diff from the Commit view or the Git log now carries the whole change list: F7 / Shift+F7 at the last or first difference shows a hint, and pressing again moves to the first or last difference of the neighbouring file, skipping binary, oversized and unreadable files. The layout is restored after a preview is replaced and keyboard focus stays in the diff across files. Compare branches stays single-file.

Conflicts left by stash pop or an automatic stash now get the same editor banner (File has unresolved merge conflicts, Resolve conflicts…) as merge conflicts. Complete conflict markers are reported as errors in every language and listed in Problems (severity under Settings › Editor › Inspections › Version Control). The toolbar shows Resolve/Continue and Abort next to the branch while conflicts or an interrupted operation exist, and the Commit view and Branches popup offer Resolve Conflicts even when no operation is in progress.

The result pane starts from the base and every change, conflicting or not, gets Accept / Ignore next to its side; accepting one side of a conflict still lets the other side be appended, and the modifier key resolves using that side directly. Adds Resolve Simple Conflicts (word-level), Apply Non-Conflicting Changes from the left, right or both (optionally on opening), Revert Conflict Resolution, Accept Yours / Accept Theirs / Cancel / Apply, Compare Contents between any two versions, and undo back to the conflicted state. CRLF and UTF-16 files are written back exactly, deleted sides and binary files are handled, and the commands are registered as merge.* actions.

Blocks that were moved unchanged, re-indented or moved and then edited are paired across the split diff: each side gets a link to the other (keyboard accessible), moved lines carry a left accent bar, edits inside a moved block get word-level highlights, and the toolbar counts moved blocks and whitespace-only changes. Staging and reverting still work on the original hunks.

Clone Repository gets IntelliJ's layout: a source list on the left, a version-control selector, URL history, a directory picker, and a shallow-clone option (history truncated to N commits, git clone --depth N). Entries for hosting platforms without backend support were removed.

`@{u}..HEAD` fatally fails when the tracking config remains but the
remote-tracking ref is gone (the upstream branch was deleted on the
remote and the fetch pruned): the repository was dropped from the
multi-repository Push dialog, or, when every repository failed, the
dialog showed the raw fatal and disabled Push. Fall back to recent
history like the single-repository dialog does, so the branch stays
listed and pushable (a plain push recreates the remote branch).
In Chinese the Update Project notification read "已在 2 commits 中更新 3 files" and the Hot Swap result "已重新加载 3 classes". Both sentences were translated, but the counts inside them were English phrases passed in as placeholder values, which are only looked up as exact catalog entries.
Each count is now its own source text per variant (`{count} file` / `{count} files`, `{count} commit` / `{count} commits`, `{count} class` / `{count} classes`), built in the current language before it goes into the sentence. These were the only two places where a translated sentence receives an English count phrase as a value.
After a push the notification only said "Push successful". It now says what went out, for example "Pushed 3 commits to origin/main", counting the commits the branch was ahead of its upstream before the push. This covers Push and pushing a branch to its own upstream. A push across several repositories stays generic unless exactly one of them had commits to send. The title is translated as a whole for each count.
Fixes#954.

The changes tree in the Commit and Local Changes views now gives test files a light green background, so test changes stand out from production ones. A file counts as a test when it lies under a test source root (detected or marked by hand) or is named like a test (`*.test.ts`, `*Test.java`, …), the same check the project tree uses; folders under a test root get the tint too. Hover and selection still win.
The colour is a new `--bg-file-tests` token derived from `--success` and `--bg-island`, so every theme gets a matching tint, and it follows test roots as they are marked or unmarked.
Fixes#931.

The Local Changes tab of the Git tool window showed only the changes tree; a file's diff was visible only after opening a diff tab.
It now previews the selected file's working-tree diff beside the tree when the window is docked at the bottom and below it when docked on a side. The preview follows the selection (arrow keys included), shows a placeholder for no or multiple selection, and can be turned off with View Options › Show Diff Preview (persisted; the selection is kept when toggling).
The preview reuses the diff editor, whose toolbar did not fit a side-docked window: the editor is now a size container, the whitespace and highlighting pickers move to the settings menu below 640px and the separators go below 380px, buttons no longer shrink and the differences counter truncates.
Fixes#710.

Root cause: shelved file paths are relative to the repository they were shelved from, but Compare with Local, Show Diff, navigation and Unshelve joined them to the selected VCS root. In a project folder that is not itself a repository (or holds several), the local file was not found and Compare with Local stayed disabled. Shelves now record their repository (older shelves fall back to the primary repository), imported patches record the current one, and every shelf action resolves paths against it, with Windows separators handled. Stash and Apply Patch already kept their repository.

Scrolling a pane set the other two panes' scrollTop; their scroll events arrived a frame later, after the sync guard was cleared, were taken as user scrolls and written back, so the pane being scrolled was pulled back. Sync now maps positions by content and ignores the echoes of its own writes; a pane that cannot scroll no longer drags the others. Next/Previous Difference (F7 / Shift+F7) go through the keymap instead of a fixed key handler. Fixes#744.
Show the current line's author, relative date and commit summary as a dimmed hint after the line end, with the full message, date and hash on hover and the commit opened on click. Uncommitted lines read "You, now · Uncommitted changes". Reuses the blame command with a per-version cache and a debounced caret; skipped outside repositories, for untracked/ignored and very large files. Off by default: Settings › Version Control › Git › Show inline blame for the current line. Fixes#742.
Two folders can now be compared from the project view (Compare Directories with two folders selected, or Compare With… on one folder, also in Find Action). The result tree marks entries as only on left, only on right, contents differ or identical, with a name filter and a show-identical toggle; double-click opens the existing diff editor, and files or whole subdirectories can be copied to either side (overwrite and delete ask first, extra files in the target are kept). Comparison runs in the background with progress and cancel, honours the project's exclusions, and works for remote projects through the same file commands.
The comparison tree and diff preview are shared with the Git folder/revision comparison.
Verified on macOS (subdirectories, Chinese names, binary files, copy both ways, delete, cancel on large files); Windows and Linux not run.
Fixes#520
Compare with Branch or Revision only handled one file, so reviewing a folder meant opening each file. Folders, the project root and multiple selections now open a changes tree against the chosen revision, with per-file diffs on demand. A single file keeps its direct diff.
Each path resolves against its own repository through the root registry. In a multi-repo workspace the picker offers shared revisions such as "main in 3 repositories" as well as per-repository ones, results are grouped by repository, and content outside any repository or a repository missing the revision is stated in the result. Listing is cancellable and off the UI thread, includes worktree and untracked changes, and a rename leaving the selection shows as a delete. Show Diff on folders reuses the same tree.
Verified on macOS, and against a remote host over the server protocol. A remote window, Windows and Linux were not run.
Fixes#567
Find in Files from the keyboard ignored the selected folder and reused the saved scope; only the context menu passed a directory.
Focused trees now publish the selected folder, or a file's parent, as an action context, and Find and Replace in Files use it when no explicit directory is given. This covers the Project view, Commit and Changes, Bookmarks and Scratches. Group rows and editor focus keep the previous behaviour.
Fixes#526
The shelf could only unshelve or delete a whole changelist, and could not show what it contained: file selection lost its scope and shelf data was not connected to the diff and patch workflows.
The context menu now has Show Diff, Show Diff in a New Tab, Compare with Local, Create Patch, Copy as Patch to Clipboard and Import Patches, alongside Unshelve, Rename and Delete. Actions on a file node apply to that file only, including unshelve and delete. Diffs use the base saved with the shelf, and quoted, added, deleted and binary files are handled.
Fixes#522
Replaces the Pull Requests tool window with a full review workflow on top of gh's authentication.
- List with search, quick filters and paging; a tab per pull request and a New Pull Request tab.
- Details: commit picker, changes tree with viewed state, CI and reviewer status, merge, close and reopen.
- Timeline editor: comments, review threads, reactions and suggested changes.
- Review in the diff viewer and, for the checked-out branch, in the editor (review mode).
- New generic vcs extension points: registerDiffViewerProvider, lineInlays, reviewGutter, branch widget extensions; new vcs_merge_base and gh_api commands.
- CSP: img-src allows https://avatars.githubusercontent.com for avatars.
Fixed while testing against a real repository: remotes behind an SSH host alias, mergeability stuck on UNKNOWN, Apply Locally staying disabled after a checkout, relative links navigating the app's page, and review inlays wider than the pane.

The context menu of a change list's header offered only commit, list management, shelve and patch actions, so rolling back or staging a whole list meant selecting every entry first. Rollback, Stage and Unstage now act on exactly that list's files, with the same enablement as file and directory nodes: Stage is disabled when nothing is unstaged, Unstage when nothing is staged.
Closes#473

The in-editor Find bar gains a chevron at its left that expands and collapses the Replace row (Replace, Replace All, Exclude), replacing the separate Replace icon button. Cmd/Ctrl+F opens the bar collapsed and Cmd/Ctrl+R expanded; the search text, options and focus are kept when toggling. The chevron reports aria-expanded.
Fixes#362
Unversioned files and folders in the Commit tool window's changes menu offer Add to .gitignore / Add to .git/info/exclude, the same action as the Project view's Git submenu. vcs_add_to_ignore returns the ignore files it changed and the IDE opens the nearest one after writing. A selected symlink or Windows junction is ignored by name without a trailing slash; symlinked ancestors are still refused, and already-ignored paths are left unchanged.

* feat(vcs): IDEA's diff algorithm and change colouring in the diff viewer
Port IntelliJ's text comparison to TypeScript (src/features/vcs/comparison):
Myers/patience LCS with unique-element discarding, ByLine (smart matching
that skips unimportant lines, chunk optimizer, second-step correction),
ByWord (word chunks, punctuation matching, whitespace policies, line block
splitting) and ComparisonManager's compareLinesInner / processBlocks. The
port runs IntelliJ's own LineComparisonUtilTest, WordComparisonUtilTest and
SplitComparisonUtilTest cases (459 runs), converted to ideaCases.json.
MergeView chunks now come straight from these line fragments, with the
inner word fragments as chunk changes, instead of @codemirror/merge's
presentable diff. Revert and >> / << replace lines as
DiffUtil.applyModification does.
Colour changes as IDEA does: modified (blue), inserted (green) and deleted
(grey) by chunk type, a lighter line background for chunks whose words were
compared, each word fragment in its own type at full line height, a thin
bar for a fragment empty on one side, and the colours carried into the
gutters and the divider bands. New --diff-modified / --diff-inserted /
--diff-deleted theme tokens, imported from .icls DIFF_* attributes.
Add a Playwright suite over a generated git repository of diff cases,
including 10,000-line files, in every viewer mode.
