[ANNOUNCE] qgit-1.2

["Marco Costalba" <mcostalba@gmail.com>]

This is qgit-1.2

With qgit you will be able to browse revisions history, view patch content
and changed files, graphically following different development branches.


FEATURES

- View revisions, diffs, files history, files annotation, archive tree.

- Commit changes visually cherry picking modified files.

- Apply or format patch series from selected commits, drag and
  drop commits between two instances of qgit.

 - qgit implements a GUI for the most common StGIT commands like push/pop
  and apply/format patches. You can also create new patches or refresh
  current top one using the same semantics of git commit, i.e. cherry
  picking single modified files.


NEW IN THIS RELEASE

A lot of work has been done from 1.1

Main new features:

*Add support for code range filtering*
To filter a mouse selected code text across all revisions file history,
this is very useful to quick search for revisions that modified a given
chunk of code.

*Much improved graph for partial repos views*
Thanks to new --boundary git-rev-list option graphs for partial repo
views are now much more clear and easy to follow.

*Support for launching an external diff viewer*
Useful, as example, to view the diffs in a 'tiled pane' mode. Default
is kompare, but it is easily user settable.

*Show stat info in patch viewer*
Use new --patch-with-stat git-diff-tree option to prepend stat info in
patch viewer.

*Adjustable font size in revision list view*
To squeeze revision graph without compromise patch and file content views.

*Key bindings for scrolling patch and revision logs*
Same keyboard navigation map of gitk. See help (F1) for details.

*Support for 'working dir' pseudo-tree in tree view*
To browse working dir changes and files in a tree like view. This is useful
for people coming from others SCM systems.

*Loading speed improvements*
Heavy optimization work to speed-up start up times, about 20%-30% from
qgit 1.1.1


NOTE: interface change.
Browsing file history revisions in annotate window does not update main view
anymore. Double click is now required to update main view. This makes qgit
less 'jumpy' and let browse file history without loosing main view selection.


Please note that you will need git 1.3.0 or newer.
