Add option to ignore untracked files in unstaged changes panel

Open rht opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm a tig user evaluating alternatives. In tig, by default, only unstaged tracked files are shown in the view. With gitui, it's rather noisy. I have files like benchmark/profile log output that I produce quickly, and usually don't bother to add into .gitignore.

Describe the solution you'd like Would be nice if there is a config option for this.

Tangentially related, since currently there is no way to tell the application to not show untracked files by default, you have two options:

  1. Set status.ShowUntrackedFiles in your system, global, or local Git Configuration.
  2. Manually set the app to not show untracked files each time you launch it: Open the options menu (key is o by default), then change Show untracked to No

@kosayoda that’s exactly the status quo. Storing your options per repo is something we will eventually add

Storing these options per repo is implemented on master
