Deleting a branch always scrolls commit list to the top

Version info

• OS: Windows 11
• Build: 2076

Description

Each time, I skim through the history of repos to remove no longer WIP branches (or giving up incomplete ideas), I get interrupted by SM always scrolling to HEAD after a branch is deleted. This is annoying and takes a lot of time to get back to the point I was before.

I thought it was enough in older builds to just select a nearby commit and than just right-click the branch to delete it. But in SM 2076 right-clicking the branch selects its commit, too. As a result SM resets scroll position after deletion, because the previously selected commit doesn't exist anymore.

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Delete a branch which is way back in history

Expected behavior

Don't change scroll position. Maybe select the nearest commit (newer or older, don't care)

I 100% agree and am now in the habit of clicking a few surrounding commits prior to branch deletion & then Navigate > Go Back-ing to get back where I was.

Hi @deathaxe,

Thank you for your reporting this issue! This was resolved in Sublime Merge 2084 (and will be fixed in the next stable build too).
