idursun/jjui v0.10.7

on GitHub

A release with a new diff range workflow, Lua workspace switching, revset completion improvements, and several UI polish fixes.

Features

• Added a revisions diff range operation started with alt+d (#600).
  • The initially selected revision becomes the --from target.
  • The next selected revision becomes the --to target.
  • The result is shown in jjui's built-in diff viewer.
  • x swaps the from and to targets.
  • t selects the --to target from bookmarks/tags.
  • f selects the --from target from bookmarks/tags.
• Added Lua change_workspace support for custom workspace switching (#689, #685).
  • This lets Lua actions switch the workspace path used by subsequent jj commands.
  • The API intentionally uses change_workspace rather than change_dir to avoid implying full repository switching semantics.

Improvements

• Improved embedded model layout for details and evolog (#474).
  • Embedded views now push surrounding revision content up to claim the available space.
  • Opening details near the bottom of the list no longer leaves it constrained to a small remainder of the viewport.
• Improved revset completion behavior (#703).
  • Revset history now appears before other completions instead of replacing function and alias completions after the first use.
  • Revset function arguments such as remote= are now completed.
  • Accepted function completions now keep showing the function signature.
  • Selected completion styling now paints the background across the text.
  • Added missing diff_lines completions.
• Improved absorb target selection (#695).
  • Pressing s during absorb now selects descendants of the highlighted revision, which makes it easier to narrow the target set when many mutable commits are preselected.
  • Removed the << default >> marker from absorb UI.

Fixes

• Fixed flash cards being corrupted by command output containing carriage returns (#698).
  • This affects output from commands such as Git/SSH progress or error messages that use \r for in-place terminal updates.
  • Flash rendering now preserves the card border instead of letting command output overwrite it.
• Removed the ssh.hijack_askpass hint from unrelated command failures (#704, #693).
  • The hint was originally dimmed, then removed because it was still misleading for failures unrelated to SSH prompts.
• Stopped showing flash messages for successful interactive commands, since they could stack up and become distracting.
• Fixed preview refresh behavior so focus-triggered refreshes do not reset the diff scroll position unnecessarily (#688).
  • This fixes losing preview reading position in tmux when focus-events is enabled.
• Fixed bookmark behavior so m moves main.
• Fixed describe behavior so an empty message does not trigger a stash.
• Fixed selected substyle/theme inheritance so selected substyles render correctly.
