Hello.
When i right click on file in "solution explorer" and select "File history", it show history of opened file in editor but not file of right click.

Current behaviour

Multiple instances for the same repository are open.

Expected behaviour

Open the same repository instance of Git Extensions if already open

Steps to reproduce

From Visual Studio 2019: click on Extensions->GitExt->Browse
Repeat again: Visual Studio 2019, click on Extensions->GitExt->Browse

Issue description:

Whenever I invoke the 'Find file' option from the GitExt menu, VS2022 almost instantly crashes. This happens both with a small solution (3 projects) as well as with a larger solution (111 projects). It happens both when VS2022 is started with elevated permissions (to debug) as well as when it is started with normal user permissions.

Three of my co-workers experience the same issue. They are working on identical workstations with (near) identical software configurations on the same type of solutions, connecting to the same Git repository.

Not sure whether this is relevant: I used the 'Customize Menu...' option under the Extensions menu to remove the checkmark for GitExt. This is needed to move the GixExt menu from the Extensions menu to its own spot in the main menu bar.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open VS2022 and open a solution that is located inside a Git repo.
2. Invoke the 'Find file' option under the GitExt menu either by Alt+I and then L (keyboard shortcuts) or by clicking with the mouse.
   
3. Notice how the cursor changes from an arrow to an arrow + blue spinning circle (busy indicator), almost instantly.
4. Notice the standard Windows 'xxx has stopped working' dialog that pops up.
   

Did this work in previous version of the GitExtensions plugin?

Yes, under VS2019 and with the previous version of the VSIX plugin (I have version 3.4.1.21 installed), opening the same solution/repo, etc. the 'Find file' option is working without issues.

Additional info

Please let me know if I should provide more information. If there are any logs that might be relevant. If there is any way to generate additional logging, etc. It would be great if this issue can be resolved!

Kind regards,
Wout Kroon

Sequence:

1. Open project properties.
2. Try to open GitExtensions instance via folder image (GitExt VS extension) in my tool panel.
3. Get exception shown below.

If I close project properties window this button working correctly.

This repositry has only two projects (main and test project), without complex structure or submodules or so on.

I understand why the browse button opens the project path. However, I think there should be a dropdown menu option that lets you open the solution directory instead.

Current behavior

System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.
at System.Windows.Forms.IDataObject.GetDataPresent(Type format)
at ICSharpCode.TextEditor.TextAreaDragDropHandler.OnDragEnter(Object sender, DragEventArgs e)
at ICSharpCode.TextEditor.TextAreaDragDropHandler.<>c__DisplayClass3_0.<MakeDragEventHandler>b__0(Object sender, DragEventArgs e)

Expected behavior

No error.

Steps to reproduce

The preconditions for this state are unknown. Once entering the bad state, the behavior is triggered by attempting to drag a file from the Diff tab of FormBrowse to a Visual Studio window.

Bug.

What is the current behavior?

In VS2017 with a dark theme enabled, the VSIX icons look like this:

Some of them look particularly bad, such as 'clone', 'manage remotes' and 'file history'.

It could be that VS attempts to darken them automatically to match the dark theme.

Environment you encounter the issue:

• GitExtensions version: 3.0 master from a few weeks ago
• OS version: Windows 10, latest updates

Did this work in previous version of GitExtensions (which)?

I don't know.

Current behaviour

GitExtensionsVSIX.Git.GitCommands.RunGit accesses Process.ExitCode before calling Process.WaitForExit.
I expect Process.ExitCode to throw an InvalidOperationException.

(RunGit is called by GetCurrentBranch only.)

Expected behaviour

Access ExitCode after the process has exited.

Did this work in previous version of GitExtensions

don't know

Environment

GE 3.4.2

When using the GitExtension Visual Studio 2015 plugin the behaviour of the Context Menu is not as expected.

If you have file changes in two different files, open file A in Visual Studio Editor and right-click on file B in Solution Explorer and choose "Reset File Changes" the extension will reset the changes of file A which is opened in Visual Studio Editor and not the file changes in file B which was right-clicked.

In addition, the confirm dialog should say which file is selected to be reset.

Feature description

If I 'Customize' the VS troolbar that has the Solution Configurations, Solution Platforms, and Startup Projects drop down, if I select 'Modify Selection', VS give me the option to set the Width.

I don't know if it would be feasible or possible, but it would be nice if I could set the Width on my Commit button on the Git Extensions toolbar.

What is the current behavior?

1. Check that VS2017 doesn't have GE visx installed:
   

2. Install vsix
   
   

3. Verify that GE is installed in VS2017
   

4. Observe it has duplicated icons
   

After resetting the toolbar everything is good.

Hello,

request

In GitExtensions stand-alone application you could click on a folder, click the view history and you will be presented with folder related commits:

Using the CLI the result is achieved by executing following command: gitex filehistory XXX\Client. where the last part of the path is the folder, instead of filename.

Nothing like this is currently exists in VSIX. We have an option to select an item in solution explorer and then clicking on File history option in extension, but this will show the history of the selected file. The logic does not work for folders.

example: view file history

main problem showed

If you were to click on a folder and try to do the same:

you wouldn't event be able to check the history at all:

sub-problem: can't view history for top-level items

In addition to this - I can report few other issues with the extension. Seems like for solution "top-level" items it's impossible to view the history:

sub-problem: .csproj file history triggers .sln file history instead

The history is opened for .sln instead:

sub-problem: uncertain purpose of view changes function

Lastly, it is not clear what view changes function does:

It always shows the whole history of changes in whole repository, regardless of what item you select in solution explorer.. I propose to either remove it or rename it.

So to summarize:

1. Please implement the folder history command. It should be applicable to "Solution", "Projects", and "folders" of projects.
2. Fix the .csproj file history view functionality.
3. Fix the solution's top-level items view history functionality.
4. Rename or remove or fix view changes function depending on what it's supposed to do.

Most of the problems described here must be related to the same functionality (same CLI command, except for 4.), so I grouped them together, but if you were to select only 1 complaint from this issue - please fix the "folder history" functionality in VS :)

Thank you.

Please let me know if I do anything to provide more information about this bug. As it stands I don't know if I can e.g. force this extension to log anything for me.

Upgrading the GitExt VS2019 extension from v3.4.0.7 (the newest build on GitHub) to v3.4.1.21 (the newst build on VS Marketplace) seems to result in an extremely high memory usage of devenv.exe, circa 2GB for just the IDE loaded with no code! With a bigger solution loaded, devenv.exe easily crashes as it runs out of memory.

v3.4.0.7, IDE loaded with no code:

v3.4.1.21, IDE loaded with no code:

For all I know, it wasn't "always" like this as it seems to have worked fine for me until yesterday. To my knowledge I have not changed any settings, the last thing I did in VS before I noticed things started breaking was opening a CMake project via VS. Because I am not sure how to debug this, I do not know if this action had any relevance to the issue or not.

So far I observed this on VS16.11.2 and VS16.11.3.

I get the following error when trying to install the VSIX:

"This extension is not installable on any currently installed products."

I had to rollback my VS 2019 recently because VS became unusable (it would take 15+ minutes to open a single project solution, and anything more complex just hangs indefinitely). I don't know what version I was on before VS decided to become unusable - plus I'm not even sure it's was VS's fault (definitely was MS's fault) as when I noticed the issue was after a Windows update for the .Net framework.

Anyway, I'm now on version 16.8.0 because I just picked an older version at random cause I wasn't sure rolling back would even work, nor what version would. However 16.8.0 does work. I've reinstalled all my extensions but this one. This one is the only one that is giving me grief about reinstalling.

I looked at the installer log, and supported version is 'Version : [14.0,18.0)', so it should be allowed... I'm inclined to believe it's still MS's fault that I can't install your extension, but seeing as all other extensions I use were able to be installed, I thought I'd at least post the log here, and see if there is anything I can do to fix this? I'm going to and jump a minor version or two forward and see if that helps, but it's such a tedious process to do that with VS.

There are a couple of issues with the default settings (in my experience)

1. After installing gitExtentions vsix - the GitExtentions toolbar does NOT become visible by default
2. In almost all cases that I did enable it manually, by right clicking on the toolbars and checking the GitExtentios, I do get a duplicated view (with all the buttons being show 2-wice)
3. (not sure if this is for everybody, but I need to enable this toolbar manually every time i start my VS :(

Did this work in previous version of GitExtensions (which)?

Yes, but it's been a while, but the last time I used VS this worked (about 2 months ago).

I tried uninstalling and re-installing the extension, but still does not work. Also, I just noticed that in the VS Extensions and Updates page, it says 2.15.2:

But on the About page for VS, it says 1.0:

This is a feature request.

It'd be nice to have:

• appropriate status icons displayed next to the files in the solution explorer
• have a "Git" menu item for right-click in the solution explorer, containing most popular options (commit/diff/etc)

Thanks

Builds should be done on AppVeyor

Current behaviour

It is impossible to launch the commit window in Visual Studio when the active document is a project properties.

Expected behaviour

The commit window should appear, allowing committing files

An error popup is triggered with the following message :

Which versions of GIT and which versions of Windows are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of our tool?
N/A

VS 2022 uses a completely different extensibility model, so VSIXs built for previous versions won't work in it.

AppVeyor releases should be signed similar to the main application

If you try to open Git Extensions via the Visual Studio Plugin (e.g. to commit, view file history, etc.) you always get this error message if the current file is in a subdirectory of the git repository.

So if your git repository (with the solution) is in "m:" and the current file is in "m:\io", Git Extensions are opened with "M:\io" as the current directory which leads to the error message.

You have to go up the directory tree until you find the ".git" folder to determine the repository root. This does not seem to happen.

Occurs in Visual Studio 2013 and Visual Studio 2015 with Git Extensions 2.49.

I have not worked in VS in a while. When I opened it up today, none of the GitEx functions are working - not from the toolbar menu, not from the right-click menus, nothing. No error or messages, just nothing happens. Uninstalled and reinstalled the GitEx extension, but still does not work.
