What is new

Corrected error

• Default window:
  • Start function: can revert diverged local branch (not front or back) to remote branch (possible loss of commit)
  • Graph: internal error when choosing virtual and one other commit
• Log window:
  • Changes: clicking on submodule commit did not reveal the commit reliably
• Hosting providers:
  • Azure: for multiple configured hosting providers (accounts), update only worked randomly
  • GitHub: possible “Object author not found as parent of PullRequest” for pull requests from non-existent users
• Refresh:
  • \\ at the end of the line of the configuration file was incorrectly treated as line continuation
  • may break in case of inaccessible directory or file
• Setup Wizard: possible internal error on Finish (related to proxy configuration)

Other notable changes

• Azure DevOps: added low-level property “azure.accountMatchHonorOrganization”
• Rebase: by default, Rebase Interactive rejects when you try to rebase on a commit of HEAD’s history (low-level property “rebase.invokeInteractiveForBranchHistory”)
• Log window:
  • Changes: font for displaying comments may be too small to read: added low-level property “changesView.comment.fontSize” to configure size

Installation instructions for Windows

1. if you have an older SmartGit version installed, exit SmartGit (use Project|Exit; there should be no more SmartGit icon),
2. extract the downloaded file,
3. launch the installer and follow the instructions

Installation instructions for Mac

1. if you have an older SmartGit version installed, exit SmartGit,
2. extract the downloaded file (e.g. by double-clicking it) and move the application directory structure to a directory of your choosing (usually /Applications)
3. if you prefer, drag and drop the app to the dock to create an icon

Installation instructions for Linux

1. extract the downloaded file into a directory of your choice,
2. ensure that the correct Java Runtime Environment is installed on your system,
3. start the program using the start script from the bin directory

If the application does not start, for example because you have an incompatible JRE version on your system, it may be necessary to set SMARTGITJAVAHOME environment variable to the root path of Java Runtime Environment 1.6 from SUN. To create an icon on your desktop, find suitable images in different sizes in the bin directory.
