Nothing routes to the explorer contexts after line actions and file entry
moved into the normal main pair. Delete their contexts, views, main-pair
wiring, discovery API, test drivers, and selection-state package so the
surviving diff view is the only implementation.
Their names go from the contexts a custom command may bind to as well, so
that a config still naming one is reported as the config error it now is
rather than taken as a context we simply failed to find.

The hint was raised on entering the staging panel, once, to explain that
the selection mode there had changed and how to get the old one back. That
panel is gone, and with it the moment the hint was tied to; what is left is
a string nothing prints and a flag nothing reads.
The advice it carried is not lost: the option it names is documented, and
the key that switches modes is on screen while a diff is focused.

Space in the pane previewing the patch had nothing to act on: everything
there is in the patch already, so it can only mean taking those lines back
out, in the way that space in the staged side of the working tree's diff
only unstages.
A line of the patch can't be found by its number: the patch renumbers
whatever follows a change it leaves out, so a line of it names a line of
the commit's diff that isn't the one shown. A line is identified instead
by its position among its file's changes, counted in the diff the patch is
shown as. That is the same position it has among the changes the patch
holds for the file, since both are in the order the file has them. This
holds however the rendering came out, so a renderer that groups a hunk's
deletions before its additions, or leaves a change out altogether, no
longer matters.
The pane's rows are stated in terms of the trees the patch was
materialized into, so the paths come back to the repo's own before
anything is looked up in them. This also lets the lines there be copied
and edited, as the lines of a commit's diff can be.

A patch built from what is on screen has to show what is in it, over the
diff those lines were taken from — which may be a diff renderer's
rendering of it, whose bytes are none of ours to touch.
So the marks are drawn in a gutter over the content, from the lines the
patch holds rather than from where they were drawn last. They are worked
out again whenever a pane's content settles and whenever the patch
itself changes. Working them out as the content settles keeps them right
across a renderer switch, a change of context size, or a walk through
the commits.
They are shown whenever the main view shows the diff the patch is built
from, whether or not it has the focus. The pane beside the diff previews
the patch all the while, and marks that came and went with the focus
would look like a bug while browsing. A diff of any other commit gets
none.

The five panels that show a commit's diff now offer on it what the patch
explorer offers on the one file it can show at a time: space takes the
selected lines into the custom patch being built, or back out of it again,
and d takes them out of the commit itself.
So a patch can be built straight from the diff already on screen, over
several files at once and without entering the commit's files first — and
from a stash entry or a reflog entry too, whose diffs the explorer could
reach but which had no patch preview of their own to show for it.
The two arrive together because they are one answer to what a commit's diff
offers, and because d needs exactly what space builds: a patch of the
selection, which the rebase then removes from the commit. Which of the two
space is doing is decided by the first selected line, as toggling a file in
the commit files panel is, and the selection then moves past the lines
dealt with — they are still in the diff, a patch leaving the commit alone,
so a second press would otherwise take them straight back out.

Removing lines from a commit, moving a custom patch out of one, undoing
either — none of it goes through the focused main view, so a selection over
that commit's diff was left where it was, painted over a rendering of a diff
that no longer exists.
Every render now asks whether it is showing a different diff than the one on
screen, which is what a rewritten commit looks like, and puts the selection
back on the change that has taken its place — the same reveal an action in
the view does for itself. It stands down for a render of the same diff,
where a selection, perhaps a range still being made, is exactly right as it
is, and for one that something more precise is already waiting to place.
The key a render is remembered under moves ahead of anything that might
change the command's arguments, so that it says which diff is being
rendered and nothing else.

Editing a hunk points an editor at a patch we wrote to a temp file and
waits. Nothing about the repo has changed when the editor returns: the
change lands when the caller applies what came back. But the suspend path
this went through refreshes as soon as the subprocess exits, so it reads
the state from before the patch is applied and then races the caller's own
refresh to publish it. Whichever lands last wins, and when it is the stale
one the files panel goes on showing the file as it was before the edit
until something else refreshes.
The caller is the one that knows when there is something new to see, and
both callers already refresh once they have applied the patch, so the
refresh in the middle only ever had a wrong answer to give.
Being a publish-order race, it doesn't reproduce reliably enough for a
test; holding a background refresh between its read and its publish shows
it every time.
Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two space presses in quick succession only staged one hunk. Input is
withheld until the refresh has landed, which is enough where the diff is
rebuilt on the spot, but the main view re-renders asynchronously: the
selection only moves to the next change once that render is on screen, so
the second press acted on lines that were no longer in the diff, and
staged nothing.
So the wait is now for the selection to be where the work carries on from,
rather than for the model. A restore therefore has to say when it is done —
which it can be either way, since a view given a message rather than a
re-render now gives up the restore it was holding instead of leaving it to
claim some later render.

EndBlockingEvents dispatches the keys buffered during a block from inside its
own call, so a keybinding handler runs in the middle of whatever the caller was
doing. If a caller ends the block partway through updating the screen, that
handler acts on state the caller has yet to finish writing.
No caller does that today; both of them end their block from a UI-thread
callback of their own, with nothing left to do afterwards. The commit after this
one adds a caller that can. It ends the block from a render restore, and a
render of the two main panes resolves that restore halfway through laying the
panes out.
Queue the replay through Update instead, so the buffered keys arrive on a later
pass of the loop, as they would have if the user had pressed them then. Input
stays withheld until that pass runs. Gui events are dispatched in preference to
queued work, so a key pressed in between would otherwise be handled ahead of the
keys buffered before it.
The replay's error now reaches the error handler along with every other
handler's, and EndBlockingEvents has nothing left to return.
Some merge conflicts can only be resolved by picking a side. The files
panel explains those rather than diffing them, and where one side deleted
the file and the other modified it, git's diff of that modification is
shown below the explanation. The focused main view took those change lines
for a diff of its own. It drew a selection over them and offered to stage
hunks of a file whose conflict staging can't resolve.
So have a render say whether it holds the diff the panel offers in the
main view, and put a selection only on one that does. Every diff render
already goes through NewMainViewDiffTask, so it says so for itself; the
custom patch preview, assembled as text rather than run as a command, says
so through NewMainViewDiffStringTask. Establishing a selection asks the
pane the same question rather than looking for change lines itself.
The selection has been wrong over this content since "Show a selection in
the focused main view" introduced it, and the fix belongs there. It lands
here instead because a render had no way to say what it holds until "Show
git's own diff when the renderer's can't be acted on" gave every diff
render one constructor to go through.

A diff renderer may lay a diff out however it likes: line numbers in a
gutter, the +/- column replaced by colour, the two sides in columns. Once
it has, we can only tell which line of which file a row shows if the
renderer says so. Under a renderer that doesn't say, the main view holds
a diff that can be read but not staged, edited or copied from. That is no
good now that the main view is where you stage.
So focusing it brings git's own diff instead, and every re-render while it
stays focused keeps to that, so staging a hunk doesn't flip back. Browsing
is untouched: you see what the renderer produced until you focus the view
to act on it.
Whether the renderer says anything is settled by asking it rather than by
watching it work: run it on empty input and see whether it announces the
protocol. Announcing is a property of the renderer, so the answer is known
before we render anything, and a diff with no lines to describe can't fool
it. Watching would have to see a diff go by first, and a binary file's diff
holds nothing that would tell the two cases apart. The answer is remembered
until the renderer changes. git itself is asked the same question, with the
renderer's own arguments, since it announces itself for exactly the formats
whose output can't be read back as a diff.

Two things about a diff command follow from what its output is for: whether
the diff renderer produces it, and whether it is coloured. That was a
`plain` flag, which covers two of the three cases — the diff as configured,
and git's own uncoloured diff for building patches out of — and leaves no
room for the third, which is about to be needed: git's own diff, coloured,
for showing where the renderer's version of it can't be acted on.
So the flag becomes a mode. It also takes over deciding the colour, which
each command spelled out for itself, and it settles a question the flag
couldn't put: whether ignoring whitespace applies. It is about what the user
wants to see, so it holds for anything shown, and not for a diff a patch is
built from, which has to describe every change.
Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Each side of a file's diff has a pane of its own, but a pane is only shown
while its side has something in it: staging the last unstaged change takes
the upper pane away, and unstaging the last staged one takes the lower one
away. The focus follows into the pane that is left, and the selection has to
be waiting there when it arrives — on the lines just acted on, which is where
they are now, unless they were discarded rather than moved, in which case on
what is left of the file. The pane being moved to shows no selection until
the restore places one, so that the selection it was left with the last time
it was used doesn't appear for a frame.
Whether the acted-on side still holds anything is a question the model can't
answer: a refresh only queues its update, and by the time it lands the
re-render this has to ride is already under way. So the answer is worked out
from what we just did — the files we changed report whether the selection
covered all of their changes, and the ones it didn't touch are as the model
describes them.

Nothing has read that since the paint started settling the scroll position

Where the selection starts out, and how it widens to a whole change block,
are questions about what the view is showing — the same rendered diff the
queries next door read. Nothing about them belongs to a keybinding, and the
render funnel is about to need them too, from a layer that can reach a helper
but not a controller.
Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Staging takes the lines it acted on out of the diff, so the selection has
nothing to sit on afterwards and would be left wherever those lines used to
be. What the user wants is the change that moved up into their place, so
that pressing the key again goes on to the next one — which is how staging
line by line through a file works.
The line acted on is gone, so it can't be remembered by identity the way a
re-render of the same diff remembers one; what is remembered instead is its
place in the sequence of the diff's changes, which the change after it
inherits. Staging the last change is the one case with nothing to inherit
it, and there the selection stays on the last change there is.

Putting a view back on a remembered line as it re-renders is two things: the
plumbing that watches the content arrive, reveals it at the right moment and
places the view, and the search that says which row to land on. Only the
second is specific to what is being remembered, and a second kind of it is
about to arrive — the change line an action leaves the selection on, which
is found by counting rather than by identity.

Space in the focused main view now acts on the selected lines the way it
does in the staging view: over the working tree's unstaged changes it puts
them into the index, and over the staged ones it takes them back out. Which
of the two it does is a property of the pane, each side of the diff having
one of its own. Nothing has to be entered first, and a selection reaching
across several files of a directory's diff is applied as one patch per file.
The rows on screen are only a picture of the diff, so the patch is built
from the diff itself: each selected row's identity — which file, which line
of it, and whether it is a deletion — is looked for in the file's own diff,
and the lines that match are the ones the patch includes. Matching by
position rather than by counting rows is what tells the two halves of a
modified line apart, since the deletion and the addition replacing it sit at
the same place in the new file.
Panels other than the working tree offer no action on their diff yet, so
space says nothing and does nothing there.

The main view shows a diff renderer's picture of a diff, and that is not
what you want on your clipboard: a renderer may drop the +/- column, move
the line numbers into a gutter, group a hunk's deletions before its
additions, or leave lines out altogether. So copying takes the lines from
the diff itself, locating them by the identity of the selected rows.
Only the panel that produced the diff can produce it again, though: the
working tree's staged or unstaged side, a commit's, a stash entry's. The
new seam is there for that. It asks per file, so that copying three lines
of a commit's diff doesn't fetch the whole of it, and it will grow the
actions on a selection as staging and patch building arrive.
The clipboard gets the run of diff lines from the first selected line of
a file to the last, so that lines the renderer hid come along and the
result still reads as a diff. Headers count as selected lines too. A hunk
header names the first line of its hunk, so it is looked for the way a
line of the file is. A file header names no line at all, and a rendering
may draw it over any number of rows, so a selection touching one of them
takes the whole header.
As in the patch explorers, a selection that is all additions or all
deletions loses its +/- column, ready to be pasted into code. One that
reaches into a header keeps the columns, and what comes out is a patch
fragment rather than lines of code.

The main section shows one pane or two, which was enough while the second
pane only ever accompanied the first. It is about to have to show the second
one by itself: the working tree's staged changes are moving there for good,
and a file with nothing but staged changes has only that side to show — it
should have the whole section rather than sit under an empty pane.
So which panes are shown becomes a three-way answer, derived from which of
them the render has content for.
Behaviour-preserving: nothing renders into the secondary pane alone yet.

A range or hunk selection covers a stretch of the diff, and restoring only
the cursor left the other end pointing at whatever line the new rendering
happened to put there — with more context lines above, a selected hunk
would grow a tail of context it never covered.
So the other end is remembered by identity too, and put back before the
cursor. If it is a line the re-render dropped, the selection is left as the
single line we landed on: there is no telling which line inherits a
selection's edge, and a wrong guess acts on lines the user never chose.

Cycling through the diff renderers is for comparing how they show the same
change, which is hard to do from the top of the diff each time. The line
you were on is the same line of the same file whichever renderer draws it,
so the restore finds it again — by the records a renderer states, where it
speaks the protocol, and by parsing its output as a diff otherwise.
The restore sits in DiffHelper.RenderToMainAgain. A switch between a
dark and a light terminal background renders the diff again through the
same helper, so it keeps your place as well.

Pressing { or } re-rendered the diff with less or more context around each
change and dropped you back at the top of it, so finding your way back to
what you were reading was on you.
Remember where the view is before triggering the re-render, and have the
restore put it back there. The line to remember is the selected one when a
selection is showing, and the middle visible line otherwise — what you are
looking at, rather than the view's top edge. It is remembered by identity,
because the new rendering puts it on a different line of the view, and it
is found again by the records a diff renderer states for its rows, or by
parsing the rendering as a diff where it still looks like one.
The line may not be there at all afterwards: shrinking the context takes
context lines away. So the lines around it come along as fallbacks, nearest
first, and the view lands on the nearest one that survived, put back on the
screen row it was on — leaving what you were reading where it was, give or
take the line that went. The walk that collects them covers the whole diff
rather than stopping at the nearest change on either side: those always
survive a context-size change, but not everything a re-render can do to a
diff is that considerate.
Under a diff renderer that says nothing about its rows there is nothing to
look for at all, and the view is left at the offset it had instead: often not
the line it was on, but always closer to it than the top of the diff. That is
what the re-render asks for besides the restore, since it is a different
command from the one that produced what is on screen and would otherwise be
taken for a diff the user has never seen.

Reading a diff of any size means moving in bigger steps than a line at a
time, which the staging view offers and the main view didn't. So the same
hunk keys work here, and n / N step from file to file — worth having only
here, since a diff spanning several files is something the staging view
never showed.
Where "the next file" begins isn't in the text: a diff renderer may print
whatever it likes above a file's content. So navigation lands on the first
row that states which file it belongs to, which is the file's header when
the source says so and its first content line otherwise. The anchor's own
file is found by scanning down rather than to the nearest row either way —
having just landed on a header, the nearest row above belongs to the file
we came from, and taking it would send the next press back where we
started.
A file you go to is brought to the top of the view, since the file is what
you went there for and the more of it is on screen the better. That only
applies where the view has to scroll at all: a file already on screen
leaves it where it is. In hunk mode what ends up selected is the file's
first change rather than the row the file begins at, and a large context
size can put that change further down than a screenful; the selection is
scrolled into view afterwards as any other jump's is, and the alignment
gives way where the two can't both hold.
The diff loads lazily, so a target below the loaded portion isn't there to
be found; rather than doing nothing, we read the rest in and look again.

Users who set hunk mode as their default get it when entering the staging
view, and the focused main view is on its way to replacing that view, so it
has to behave the same: focusing selects a whole change block, and clicking
a change line selects that line's block, ready to act on. A click on a
context line still selects only that line, since the click points at it
precisely — you may well want to edit it. A click inside the block that is
already selected does the same, giving hunk mode up and going back to line
by line. That keeps a single line reachable with the mouse in a block too
long to see the end of, and matches how a click inside a range selection
already collapses it.
The block offered up is the first one that begins on screen, so that its
whole extent can be seen before acting on it. Only when none does — a change
too long to fit on the screen — is the block that reaches into the view from
above taken instead, and the selection then extends to its first line off
screen: focusing a diff must not move it, so nothing here scrolls.
The staging view makes one exception, and so must we, or a file that is one
solid block of changes (a file you just created, or deleted) would come up
with all of it selected. The staging view asks the parsed patch; we ask the
rendered diff the same question, which needs no second git invocation and
works over a whole commit's diff, where the answer differs per file.

The focused main view could be scrolled but not pointed at: there was no
way to say "this line" or "these lines", which is what every line-level
interaction needs — editing a line, copying part of a diff, and, later,
staging. So a diff main view now always carries a selection while focused,
starting at the first change already on screen so that focusing doesn't
move the view.
The mode of the selection lives on the main context (a single line, a
range from a fixed anchor, or the change block around the cursor); the
selected line and the range anchor stay in the view itself, whose native
range select draws them, so there is no new highlight machinery. The modes
and their keys are the ones the staging view has, including that the arrow
keys step from block to block in hunk mode.
A pane holds something to select only when what it is showing is a diff
with changes in it, which the render works out once its content is final: a
placeholder message is not a diff, and neither is a diff with nothing in it
at all, such as a binary file's or an empty commit's. Whether a selection
is then drawn there follows from the context stack, as it does for every
other view.
A click in the focused main view now has a meaning again: it selects the
line it points at.

Where a renderer states which line of which file it is rendering, take
that as the line's identity. The renderer knows, and for a rendering
that no longer looks like a diff nothing else does. Reading the rendered
text stays the way for the renderings that keep a diff's structure, and
for the renderers that say nothing at all.
Which of the two is used is settled for the rendering as a whole, not
row by row. A rendering with records is not parsed at all, not even for
the rows the renderer says nothing about. Its text is no unified diff,
and a row of it can read like one. Under delta, a commit that adds a
test whose input is a diff shows the test's "diff --git a/img.png
b/img.png" line as a row of its own; parsed, that row opens a file
section that runs to the end of the rendering, and every row delta puts
between hunks and files comes out as a header of a file called img.png.
So the untagged rows of such a rendering stay unresolved, as the
protocol has it (spec section 6.4).
Header records are accepted too. This lets a renderer point at a file
with no content lines, such as a pure rename, a mode change or a binary
file: for those files the header is the only row in the diff.

A diff line's identity is about to become recoverable from a second

A diff renderer that restructures the diff — into columns, or with the
+/- markers replaced by colour — leaves us no way to tell which line of
which file a rendered row came from, which is what acting on the row
requires. The OSC 1717 protocol has the renderer say so directly: it
prefixes each line it renders with a record naming the file and the
line's position in the old and new versions of it.
Attach each record to the cells it precedes, so that a row's records
survive wrapping and the columns of a side-by-side rendering, and hand
them to readers together with the row's text: the two have to describe
the same buffer, and a re-render can rebuild it between two reads.

git doesn't just print the path: it terminates it with a tab when the
path contains a space, and C-quotes the whole field when the path
contains anything it won't print raw — with core.quotePath, which is on
by default, that means any non-ASCII byte, so a file called café shows
up as "b/caf\303\251".
Taking the field verbatim therefore gives a path that doesn't exist, for
a whole class of perfectly ordinary file names. The quoting is Go's own
string syntax, octal escapes and all, so decoding it is a call to
strconv.Unquote.

To act on the line the user is pointing at in a diff view — to stage it,
to open it in an editor, to keep the cursor on it while the diff is
regenerated — we need to know which file it belongs to and where it sits
in that file. Only the diff the view was rendered from knows that, and
by the time it's on screen all we have is text.
So parse it back: the view's contents are (usually) a unified diff, and
running them through the patch parser recovers each row's file, kind and
line numbers. "Usually" is why this goes behind a seam, and why it
answers "I don't know" rather than guessing: a diff renderer is free to
restructure what it prints, and a wrong answer here means acting on the
wrong line of the wrong file.
Parsing a whole buffer is a separate entry point from parsing a single
line, because a caller resolving every row of a large diff must not
re-parse a file's section once per line of it.

If a main branch is checked out in another worktree, auto-forwarding
after a fetch skips it. People who keep the main branch checked out in
their main worktree, and work on feature branches in linked worktrees,
therefore never get it forwarded.
Fast-forward such a branch in the worktree it is checked out in, as `f`
does. Skip the worktree if it has changes to tracked files, since
nobody asked for its files to change. Also skip it if it is mid-rebase
or mid-bisect, because its HEAD is then detached from the branch. A
branch in the current worktree is never forwarded. This covers the case
of the current worktree being mid-rebase on a main branch, whose ref
would otherwise be forwarded under the rebase.
Auto-forwarding now writes the same reflog message as `f`
("lazygit: update to upstream branch").

If `f` is used on several branches that are checked out in other
worktrees, the first worktree in which the fast-forward fails stops the
whole operation. For example, an untracked file that the fast-forward
would overwrite leaves the branches after it untouched, even though
nothing is wrong with them.
Try all the branches, and report the errors of the failed ones
together. The checks that refuse to fast-forward any of the branches
still run before anything is moved.
The next commit uses forwardBranches for auto-forwarding branches in
other worktrees, where stopping at the first failure is worse. A
worktree that fails every time would prevent the ones after it from
ever being forwarded. For this, forwardBranches also takes the git
commands to use, since a background worker doesn't block switching
repos.

AutoForwardBranches runs in the Then callback of the refresh after a
fetch. This is on the UI thread, so the git command for updating the
branches blocks the UI while it runs. This is fine for a single
update-ref, but the next commit adds a git status and a git merge for
each branch that is checked out in another worktree.
Keep reading the branches from the model on the UI thread, and move the
git work to a worker.

The worktree loader associates a worktree that is mid-rebase or
mid-bisect with the branch involved, even though its HEAD is detached.
Fast-forwarding such a branch therefore ran the fast-forward in that
worktree. This moved the detached HEAD and put the upstream commits
into the rebase in progress, while the branch stayed where it was.
Remember in the worktree model when its branch comes from a rebase or
bisect, and refuse to fast-forward the branch in that case. Updating
only the ref is no option for a rebase; the rebase writes the branch
when it finishes.

Branches that lazygit forwards to their upstream move by a direct ref
write, so no git command turns up in their reflog to explain it. Until
now the entry had no message either, leaving `git reflog <branch>` with
nothing but a blank line about it. Name lazygit and what it did, so that
a branch which moved on its own can be traced.

After somebody else rebased and force-pushed a stack of branches, every
branch of the stack has to be brought back to its upstream, and pressing
`f` on them one by one is as tedious as the checking out and pulling it
replaces.
Let `f` work on a range selection. The upstream branches are fetched with
one `git fetch` per remote, and the branches that aren't checked out
anywhere move in a single `git update-ref` call. All the selected
branches are looked at before any of them is moved, so a branch that has
to be refused leaves the others alone rather than updating the stack
halfway.

When somebody else rebases a branch and force-pushes it, the local
branch is left diverged from it, so `f` refuses to touch it. To get back
in sync, the branch has to be checked out and pulled, and for a stack of
branches that means doing it once per branch.
Such a branch has none of its own work in it, though: the commits it is
ahead by are the old versions of the ones that are now on the remote
branch. So when the branch has diverged and none of the commits it is
ahead by is ours, reset it to its upstream instead of refusing. This is
the same state that checking the branch out and pulling it would produce,
as rebase drops commits that the upstream already has.
A branch that isn't checked out anywhere is reset with the same
`git update-ref` that a fast-forward uses. One that is checked out
somewhere is reset with `git reset --keep`, and only when that worktree
has no changes to tracked files, so that the files under the user's feet
change no more than they have to. `--keep` also refuses to overwrite an
untracked file that the reset would bring in, which `--hard` would do
silently.

Fast-forwarding a branch that isn't checked out ran a single
`git fetch <remote> refs/heads/<branch>:<branch>`, so git's own refusal
to move a local branch backwards served as the safety check. A later
commit widens the set of branches the command accepts, and for that
lazygit has to make that decision itself.
Fetch the remote branch on its own, updating only its remote-tracking
branch. Then ask git whether the branch is an ancestor of it, and only
then move the branch: with `git update-ref` when it isn't checked out
anywhere, guarded by the hash we knew it to have, and with
`git merge --ff-only` in its worktree when it is checked out there.
Keeping `git pull --ff-only` for the latter case would fetch a second
time.
Fast-forwarding a branch that isn't checked out in a worktree had no
integration test at all, so add one. The second new test covers a repo
that keeps no reflogs, because a later commit starts reading those and
this case has to keep working without them.

Most of the logic of this controller belongs in a helper, and the next
commit reshapes it, so move it over unchanged first to keep that diff
about the change itself.

The function asks git whether HEAD is an ancestor of a ref, and its name
says what the one caller wants to know. A later commit asks the same
question about a branch that isn't checked out, so let the caller name
both refs.

The flag says whether this load is the one that kicks off the values
determined in the background afterwards. A later commit adds a second of
those next to the behind-counts, so name the flag after what it controls
rather than after its only user so far.

lazygit will offer to push these along with the current branch, so that
a rebased stack can be pushed in one go. The commits panel already marks
the tips of stacked branches, and this uses the same criterion. A branch
is below the given one if its tip is one of the loaded commits of that
branch that isn't merged into a main branch. This needs no git command.
In whole-graph mode the commit list also contains commits of other
branches, but those are marked as merged, so they don't count.
