| 1 | TODO |
| 2 | ---- |
| 3 | Features that should be explored. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | - Repository status view. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | - Add interface (somewhat like git-gui has) allowing a diff chunk to be |
| 8 | staged/unstaged for the next commit. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | - Better text-input support. From setsyx(3): |
| 11 | |
| 12 | The setsyx routine sets the virtual screen cursor to y, x. If y |
| 13 | and x are both -1, then leaveok is set. The two routines getsyx |
| 14 | and setsyx are designed to be used by a library routine, which |
| 15 | manipulates curses windows but does not want to change the |
| 16 | current position of the program cursor. The library routine |
| 17 | would call getsyx at the beginning, do its manipulation of its |
| 18 | own windows, do a wnoutrefresh on its windows, call setsyx, and |
| 19 | then call doupdate. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | - When the user wants to "view" a commit, you could show from which |
| 22 | branch heads and from which tags the commit is reachable, and perhaps |
| 23 | which tag is the latest among the ones reachable from that commit, as |
| 24 | part of the commit detail information you display on the lower pane |
| 25 | (log/diff view). |
| 26 | |
| 27 | - Use autoconf to check for iconv in libc and how it is declared (the |
| 28 | 2nd argument is 'const' on FreeBSD / Mac OS X). Maybe also check for |
| 29 | the AsciiDoc and XmlTo document tools. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | - The autoconf check could also be used to determine whether it is a |
| 32 | newer git so that git-config will be used instead of git-repo-config. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | - Use non-blocking I/O + select() for incremental loading of view |
| 35 | input. (debian bug #427093) |
