[Feature request] External editor & diff, keyboard shortcut

Open evaneykelen opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

First of all, hats off to youL GitFiend looks amazing!

Feature requests:

  • Ability to launch external editor. Currently you have to open the file in e.g. the Finder and then double-click the file to launch the editor. Opening the file straight from GitFiend would be a lot faster.

  • Ability to launch external diff tool. E.g. on macOS I use FileMerge.app a lot which comes with Xcode because it's reallty good at visualizing changes to indentation. Lots of times the built-in diff in GitFiend suffices, but not for complex diffs.

  • Shortcut key to stage a change (also because the Discard button is dangerously close to the Stage button).

Hi @evaneykelen, thanks for the feedback and good explanation.

I've recently made the discard button safer and it now asks to confirm, but I definitely plan on adding a keyboard shortcut regardless.

I would like to second the call for external diff support. gitfiend is great and true to the tagline designed for humans! It wraps the complexity underneath without sacrificing on the functionality!
