GitX Tweaks: Commit View
Jan 17th
So, after thinking about my most recent updates, I decided I wanted to change the way that the commit view looks but just slightly. This is my 1st pass on some things I’d like to have available via the toolbar.
Would also like to tweak the view selector buttons, revise remote selection and add toolbar buttons for all the contextual menu items, which aren’t many.
GitX Update: Remote Selector
Jan 17th
Previously, I implemented toolbar buttons where each button was tied to a specific remote repository. This was/is fine if you’ll only be working with one or two hosts but becomes cumbersome when dealing with multiple hosts.
Enter the NSPopUpButton. By switching to this UI element I’m able to allow a user to select a remote from a configurable list of remote repositories. I like this UX slightly better than having a button for each remote and the functionality behind the scenes still reaches the same result.
Now with that out of the way, I can move on to some other items on my TODO list…:)
