• Fixed a typo in gt absorb.

1.3.0 2024-03-20

• This version of the Graphite CLI includes a significant update to gt sync and gt get that will be rolled out over the coming weeks via a server-side feature flag.

• The primary goal of these changes is to improve the experience of syncing remote changes to your local branches, ensuring that flows like collaborating on a stack or applying suggested edits to a PR are seamless and reliable.

• Notably, gt sync now syncs all branches, where previously it just synced trunk. This brings it closer to the behavior of gt get.

• Conversely, gt get with no argument passed is essentially "gt sync for the currently checked out stack."

• The full behavior is:

1. Update the trunk branch to match remote

2. Clean up branches associated with merged or closed PRs

3. Sync any remote changes to local branches

4. Restack branches as needed

• If you'd like to be included in the initial rollout of these changes, please let us know in the #cli-beta channel on our Community Slack. Since we are using a server-side feature flag, updating to 1.3.0 alone will not enable the new behavior.

• The changes are largely based on your feedback, and we're excited to see how they improve your experience with Graphite. THANK YOU!

• gt create now applies the branch prefix to branch names passed in directly (e.g. gt create branch-name with a prefix of prefix/ will yield a branch called prefix/branch-name). This behavior can be disabled in gt config. If the branch name already begins with the prefix, it will not be added again.

• Graphite now sets the environment variable GT to 1, which can be checked by subprocesses like an editor or Git hook to determine if they are being run from Graphite.

• Fixed a bug where gt absorb would fail if the git config to detect copies in diffs was enabled.

• Fixed a bug where gt split --by-hunk would leave the user in a detached state if interrupted.

• If no changes are staged in a step of gt split --by-hunk, it will now prompt to stage changes again instead of exiting with an error.

• Slightly updated help text and error messages for gt fold.

1.2.8 2024-03-12

• Fixed a segfault issue caused by a dependency.

1.2.7 2024-03-07

• Added support for `gt create` to use AI to populate commit message and branch name. This will be rolled out via a server-side feature flag over the coming weeks.

1.2.6 2024-03-05

• By default, gt create will now replace slashes in commit messages when inferring branch names, and will convert uppercase letters to lowercase. Both of these new behaviors can be disabled in `gt config`.

• Added individual --edit-title and --edit-description flags to gt submit to allow for editing the PR title and body, respectively. --no-edit-title and --no-edit-description can be used to skip the prompts for each. Note that --edit and --no-edit will still work as before.

• Added support for gt submit to use AI to populate PR titles and description. This will be rolled out via a server-side feature flag over the coming weeks.

• When creating new PRs, gt submit will continue to a web browser to edit PR metadata. --cli can be passed to use the CLI flow.

• Added a setting to gt config to toggle the above behavior: i.e., use the CLI instead of web by default. In that case, `--web` can be passed to use the web flow.

• Fixed an issue resulting in certain commands failing when using a YubiKey-protected SSH key.

• Fixed an issue where gt demo would not work on Windows.

• Debug logs are now always written, even when the --debug flag is not passed.

• Adjusted the set of branches that might be included in the new prompt to update upstack branches.

• Fixed an issue where staged changes could be discarded inadvertently during a gt sync.

• Fixed an issue where gt demo would fail on Windows.

1.2.4 2024-02-22

• gt submit now prompts to update upstack branches with open PRs when run from a mid-stack branch.

• gt submit is now able to detect when GitHub/Graphite sync is not enabled for a repository. We'll be rolling out the check for this over the coming weeks.

• gt log is now sorted stably.

• Fixed the gt sq alias for gt squash.

• Fixed an issue where gt submit would fail (before submitting upstack branches) if run from a merged branch.

• Fixed an issue where gt submit would fail if a pre-push hook had spaces in its path.

Renaming and configuration

• All commands that fell under branch, stack, upstack, downstack, repo, and user have been renamed to drop the noun. Old command names still work, but will be removed in an upcoming version.

• The full list of commands is available in gt --help or at https://graphite.dev/docs/graphite-cli-v1-command-names.

• Graphite now supports custom aliasing for any command via ~/.config/graphite/aliases (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/graphite/aliases).

• A preset to copy into this file to keep the old short command names is found at https://graphite.dev/docs/legacy-alias-preset.

• All Graphite configuration now lives in the interactive gt config command.

• Graphite's user-level configuration files are now XDG Base Directory Specification compliant, or stored in ~/.config/graphite by default.

gt create

• gt create is the new command to create a Graphite branch (formerly branch create)

• gt create now supports inferring a branch name from the commit editor, which means it is now possible to run it with no arguments.

• If you have unstaged changes and no staged changes when running gt create, you are now asked whether you'd like to stage and commit them as part of the new branch.

gt modify

• gt modify is the new command to modify a Graphite branch (formerly gt commit amend/gt commit create).

• The default behavior is to amend the current commit on the branch, unless the branch has no commits or --commit is passed.

• When amending a commit, the editor is not opened by default unless -e/--edit is passed.

• If you have unstaged changes and no staged changes when running gt amend, you are now asked whether you'd like to stage them before running the amend or commit operation.

• gt branch edit has been moved to gt modify --interactive-rebase

gt sync

• gt sync is the new command to update your trunk branch, clean up merged branches, and restack most branches in your repo.

• gt sync now restacks all branches by default (no longer need -r).

• If any branch has conflicts with its parent branch, instead of launching you into a conflict resolution, sync will print out the list of conflicting branches so that you can run gt restack on them.

gt submit

• gt submit is the new command to push branches to GitHub and create stacked PRs for them.

• gt submit submits the currently checked out branch and its ancestors (dependent branches) by default.

• gt ss is included in the alias file by default as an alias for gt submit --stack, which replicates the behavior of the old gt stack submit

• gt submit now handles cases where branches in your stack have merged or been updated remotely, as long as there are no rebase conflicts to resolve. This includes both incorporating remote changes and removing merged branches from the stack.

• gt submit now ensures that your branches are restacked instead of failing when they aren't.

Entirely new commands

• gt pop to delete the current branch and check out its parent without modifying the working tree. Can't be run if the current branch has children.

• gt trunk to navigate directly to your trunk branch.

• gt parent to print out the raw parent of the branch (for scripting).

• gt children to print out the raw children of the branch, line by line (for scripting).

• gt revert (experimental) to create a branch that reverts a commit in your trunk branch.

Other changes

• Added a new --stat flag to gt info that prints out a diffstat instead of a full diff. Compatible with either --diff or --patch.

• gt create --insert now asks which siblings should be moved onto the new branch if there are more than one of them.

• Performance improvements.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug where stray output was printed while completing command names.

• Fixed an issue where a single optional PR template was interpreted as required PR template.

• Fixed a bug where branch prefixes could not end with a slash.

• Fixed a bug where split --hunk would not work for branches that added new files.

• Fixed a bug where the branches created by split were all based on the parent of the split branch instead of being stacked correctly.

• Fixed a bug where the --patch flag to create and modify did not include new files.

Notes

• The test command has been temporarily removed due to persistent bugginess, but will be added back when we have time to dedicate to making it work well. For now, one option is to script using the new gt children and gt parent commands, which should handle most use cases.

• We are still working on further improvements to sync and would love your feedback in this area!

• We'd also love to hear about how we can make revert work best for you!

• As of the release of this version, certain parts of the web app and docs may still reference the old command names. We're updating those places as you read this!

0.22.16. (2023-09-08)

• Added autocomplete support for the renamed commands.

• Fixed a bug in get when the PR does not exist locally.

0.22.15 (2023-09-07)

• Introduced an environment variable to preview the command rename and custom aliasing system that will be released next week as Graphite CLI v1.  For more details, see https://graphite.dev/docs/graphite-cli-v1-command-names.

• Introduced a new interactive command gt config which covers all user- and repo-level configurations. The gt user and gt repo top-level commands will be deprecated in an upcoming release.

• checkout now prompts to sync when the branch's PR has been merged.

• get no longer fetches branches for merged PRs.

• Fixed a bug where having the VSCode extension open while restacking could corrupt cached stack data.

• Fixed a bug where restacks would get stuck in a confusing/corrupt state due to concurrent git processes (i.e. VSCode extesnion).

• Fixed a bug where an git range-diff failure could block submit.

0.22.14 (2023-09-06)

• Fixed a bug where users with a Yubikey-protected SSH key were unable to sync.

• Fixed a bug where an uncaught IPC exception would appear after running a command.

• Fixed a bug where the wrong version could be shown in gt log.

• Fixed a bug where get didn't work to fetch new branches.

• Cleaned up a suggestion to run submit --force

• Removed the interactive portion at the end of init for branch tracking (hint about track is still shown).

• GT_RENAME flag now displays the correct command names in suggestions.

0.22.8 (2023-08-31)

• You guessed it -- more performance improvements!

• submit commands now automatically pull in changes from remote and rebase on top of them when your local changes don't conflict with them.

• downstack get now shows which version of the PR has been fetched.

• gt log now shows the last submitted version of each PR, as well as whether you need to `submit` or `get`.

• branch checkout now informs you if you need to get.

• Fixed an issue where branch checkout --patch failed with an incorrect error message.

• Fixed an issue where downstack get failed with an incorrect error message.

• Fixed some issues with inconsistent failures in get

• Added an experimental graphite_aliases file (see below)

We are currently in the process of renaming all Graphite commands. This version is the first one with the full set of renamed commands implemented. If you'd like to try out this new command surface, you can add "export GT_RENAME=1" to your shell configuration file (e.g. ~/.zshrc) to be warned when you run a renamed command and what the new name is. It may be unstable and is primarily meant for employee testing purposes until further notice. There is no overlap between the old set of commands and the new set.  For more information, see https://www.notion.so/withgraphite/Proposal-for-Graphite-CLI-changes-400d068c7c8546fcbc90b5573e6f27e9?pvs=4.

The cool part is that turning this configuration on allows you to set custom aliases via the ~/.graphite_aliases file, which we know some of you have been asking us about for quite a while!

0.22.6 (2023-08-25)

• More performance improvements!

• Fixed an issue where mangled output was displayed in gt user editor.

• submit commands now suggest running downstack get when the above situation is detected.

• YubiKey prompting for SSH is now moved behind a config, in order to address some bugs that passing through the YubiKey prompt introduced.  If you are using a YubiKey to authenticate with GitHub, you can enable this config with gt user yubikey --enable.

• Added a global --cwd flag to run any Graphite command in a directory other than the one it is initiated from.

0.22.0 (2023-08-04)

• Added a new gt downstack merge command to merge stacks and PRs directly from the CLI.

• submit commands now display code updates and metadata updates as two different statuses in the list of updates.

0.21.5 (2023-07-27)

• We had a few versions' worth of iterating on internal issues and the new release process from our monorepo, thanks for bearing with us!
  

0.21.0 (2023-07-21)

• We pushed a few patch versions to npm and brew between 0.20.24 and now, but there were no major changes in any of them, so they are not listed in the changelog.

• gt log now shows the PR's overall status (consistent with Graphite app; takes stacks into account).

• Added a new -m flag to submit commands that enables "merge when ready" on the Graphite app, merging the PR if it is already ready to be merged.

• Fixed a few long-standing performance issues that affected all commands, most noticeably shorter-running ones.

• Fixed an issue where the Yubikey prompt shown by git commands was not being diplayed.

• Fixed an issue where the `branch track` command was missing.
  

0.20.22 (2023-06-22)

• Added the request ID to HTTP error message output for better user issue debugging

0.20.21 (2023-06-22)

• No changes, had to bump a new version to get around accidentally pushing v0.20.19 to npm as v0.20.20

0.20.20 (2023-06-21)

• gt dash commands now use the app URL from the user's profile when passing links to open.

0.20.19 (2023-05-11)

• When editing a PR description, the temporary file is now named GRAPHITE_PR_DESCRIPTION.md. This allows for Markdown syntax highlighting, and also adding additional editor config by specifically targeting this file name.

0.20.18 (2023-4-28)

• Fixed a bug where gt changelog was broken for the binary version of the CLI (e.g. installed via brew).

• Fixed a bug where gt branch edit was accidentally removed from the CLI. Thank you @vampire!

• Added fish completion support via gt fish >> ~/.config/fish/completions/gt.fish! Thank you @szamanr!
  

0.20.17 (2023-4-24)

• This should fix the npm install issues!
  

0.20.16 (2023-4-21)

• Fixed a bug where repo sync attempts to delete branches that were never associated with a PR.

0.20.13 (2022-1-20)

• Tweaked git passthrough copy to make it clear that a command was run.

• Fixed a bug where test commands didn't support multiple separators in a branch name.

• Replaced individual gt ls-remote calls on submit with a single one, which should speed up submission significantly!

0.20.12 (2022-11-25)

• gt stack submit now prompts for submission info inline after each individual branch, instead of after all branches.

• Changed many error messages to be more actionable, and changed some tips to always-visible messages.

• Improved accuracy of checking whether a branch is up to date on submit.

• The --edit/-e flag on submit now opens an editor for each PR without prompting first. Passing no flag still prompts the user whether they'd like to open an editor, and --no-edit still skips the prompt,

• The --select/-s flag of submit now prompts about which branches to include in the submit as the first step so that it can validate that the correct dependencies are included in the submit scope.

• Fixed a bug preventing creation of a debug context within a large repository.

• Fixed a bug logging output for gt branch test on branches with a slash in the name.

0.20.9 (2022-08-02)

• Fixed remaining issues with pager by switching from a temp file to a pipe.

• Fixed a bug where gt log short wouldn't show the filled-in circle for branches needing a restack.

• Fixed a bug where gt branch split untracked children of the branch being split if the last branch in the split kept its name.
  

0.20.8 (2022-07-29)

• Improved error mesaging around failed pager execution.
  

0.20.7 (2022-07-29)

• gt log, gt changelog, and gt branch info now display in a pager. The pager defaults to your git pager, but can be overridden with (for example) gt user pager --set 'less -FRX'.

• Fixed a bug where --no-edit on submit would automatically open new PRs in draft mode (it now prompts unless --draft, --publish, or --no-interactive is set).

• Fixed a bug where killing the CLI during submit could result in being unable to submit again (due to a temporary filename clash).

• Fixed colors for gt branch info --patch.

• Fixed a bug related to buffer size for certain git commands.

• gt branch untrack now untracks the current branch if no branch name is provided.

• Fixed an issue where gt branch create would fail instead of creating a branch with no commit in certain cases.

• Fixed gt branch edit.
  

0.20.5 2022-07-22

• Fixed gt changelog.

• Fixed submit, downstack edit for editor commands containing spaces.

• Fixed git push errors being swallowed on submit.
  

0.20.4 (2022-07-21)

• Added gt changelog and gt docs. You probably want to pipe the changelog to a pager or file :).

• Fixed a bug where a git rebase --abort after a restack conflict would result in Graphite being wrong about the current branch.

• Internal improvements.

0.20.3 (2022-07-21)

• Minor internal fix.

0.20.2 (2022-07-19)

• Fixed an issue preventing installation.

0.20.1 (2022-07-19)

• Fixed an issue preventing installation.

0.20.0 (2022-07-19)

• Added a new command gt branch split that allows the user to interactive split a branch into multiple dependent branches. There are two styles of operation:

  • --by-commit mode (aliases --commit, -c) prompts the user to select the commits within the branch that they'd like to have branches at.

  • --by-hunk mode (aliases --hunk, -h) prompts the user to create a series of single-commit branches from the changes of the branch using the git add --patch interface.

• Greatly improved gt log short readability. Give it a try!

• gt branch create, gt commit create, and gt commit amend now support the -p/--patch option (like git commit --patch). Please note that this won't be the most useful option until autostashing is implemented, planned soon.

• Branch navigation commands now notify the user if the branch being checked out is either

  • behind its parent (needs restacking)

  • upstack of a branch that is behind its parent

  • untracked

• gt log and gt log short now show untracked branches when --show-untracked/-u is passed in.

• gt branch checkout now includes untracked branches in the selector when --show-untracked/-u is passed in.

• Added -n as an alias for --no-edit for submit. Try out gt ss -np to quickly publish your changes!

• Added --select/-s option for submit to select which branches to push.

• Added --force/-f option submit to do a force-push, i.e. git push -f, instead of the default git push --force-with-lease.

• Added a non-blocking note if the user submits a branch that is not restacked on trunk.

• On trying to submit branches with PRs already closed/merged, instead of failing immediately users will be prompted to choose either to abort or create new PRs.

• submit now correctly sets the upstream of the pushed branch.

• You can now configure whether you'd like commit messages in PR bodies by default behind the configuration gt user submit-body --include-commit-messages. Disabled by default. Use gt user submit-body --no-include-commit-messages to disable.

• Added --force/-f for gt downstack get to always overwrite local branches.

• gt downstack track can now take a positional branch name argument (like gt branch track).

• Added --diff/-d for gt branch info to show the diff of the whole branch (unlike --patch/-p which shows the diff of each commit).

• Interactive prompts autocomplete is now case-insensitive.

• gt --help now includes a link to the CLI documention.

• Improved gt repo init copy.

• Improved error messaging for when an internal git command fails.

• Improved error messaging for when a submit command fails due to a GitHub API error.

• Improved test command output.

• Improved clarity of positional arguments for all commands with them in --help

• Improved performance of internal cache.

• Improved telemetry.

• Fixed a bug where test commands were completely broken.

• Fixed a bug where upstack onto autocomplete did not work if uso shortcut was used.

• Fixed a bug where --no-interactive and --no-edit were not handled properly for submit

• Fixed a bug where gt log would break on the initial commit of a repository.

• Fixed a bug where trunk would be in the list of branches to track in gt repo init

• Fixed a bug where the error message for old versions of Node.js wouldn't show up.

• Added cycle detection for parent pointers.
  

0.19.6 (2022-07-07)

• Fixed a bug where continue state could be corrupted by running a gt command before running gt continue.

• Fixed a bug where upstack onto could target untracked branches, resulting in corrupted state.

• Fixed a bug where renaming a branch to its current name resulted in corrupted state.

• Added dstr as an alias for downstack track.

• Slightly improved rebase conflict printout.

0.19.5 (2022-07-06)

• Added a new command gt downstack track that, from an untracked branch, allows you to track recursively by choosing the parent until you reach a tracked branch. Use --force/-f to automatically select the nearest ancestor of each branch, which should give behavior similar to gt stack fix --regen of old.

• Added a new command gt branch fold that folds the changes of the current branch into the parent branch. Uses the parent branch's name for the new branch with default; pass in --keep/-k to use the current branch's name instead.

• Added a new command gt branch squash that turns a branch of multiple commits into a single-commit branch. Takes --message/-m and --no-edit/-n arguments just like gt commit amend, and defaults to using the message of the first commit on the branch.

• Fixed a bug where if neither --draft nor --submit was passed, updated PRs would always be published if previously drafts, and new PRs would be published instead of being created as draft.

• Fixed a bug where gt branch track --force wouldn't always select the nearest ancestor.

• Fixed a bug where gt with no command would throw an uncaught exception instead of displaying the help message.

• Fixed a bug where cancelling certain interactive prompts would result in undefined behavior.
  

0.19.4 (2022-07-05)

• Based on a user survey, we've slightly changed the defaults for PR title and description on submit commands.

  • PR Title defaults to the title of the first (or only) commit on the branch.

  • PR Description defaults to a list of commit messages followed by a PR template, if one exists.

• branch info and log now show the commit hash of trunk.

• Added a repo init --reset which clears all Graphite metadata.

• Added a new user-scoped configuration enabled by gt user restack-date --use-author-date which when enabled passes --committer-date-is-author-date to the internal git rebase of restack operations. To return to the default, use gt user restack-date --no-use-author-date.

• Added autocompletion for the branch up disambiguation prompt.

• Added gt dpr as a shortcut for gt dash pr

• Renamed the --no-draft option for `submit` commands to --publish/-p. There are three modes of operation for the command:

  • By default, leave existing PRs in the same state and create new PRs in draft mode.

  • When --draft/-d is passed, all PRs in the submit scope will be marked as draft.

  • When --publish/-p is passed, all PRs in the submit scope will be marked ready for review.

• Added an interactive prompt for gt branch rename when no new name is passed in.

• Added a --force/-f option for gt branch track that skips the interactive prompt by picking the nearest tracked ancestor.

• Fixed a bug where branch submit and downstack submit base validation would fail incorrectly on certain operating systems.

• Fixed a bug where leftover cached metadata across CLI versions could result in inconsistent state.

0.19.3 (2022-06-28)

• Changed the flow of gt branch track. Now, it tracks the current branch by default, unless another branch is specified. By default, prompts the user to select a branch to be its parent if there are multiple possibilities, or you can pass in a --parent.

• Updated the new log short view to be more comprehensible (uses diagram symbols from log).

• Fixed a bug where --restack wouldn't restack all branches as expected if gt repo sync was run from trunk.

• Fixed a bug where gt ss would fail if run from trunk.

• Fixed a bug where gt downstack get would fail to get branches that existed locally but were untracked by gt.

• Fixed a bug where after a git rebase, Graphite metadata could end up in a broken state.

• Fixed a bug that prevented gt feedback --with-debug-context from working as expected.

• Fixed a bug where gt upstack onto interactive selection could appear wonky.

• Fixed some copy in v0.19 newly added features.
  

0.19.2 (2022-06-15)

• Fixed an issue where downstack get was completely broken.

• Replaced the emoji for Pushing to remote and creating/updating PRs... step of submit

• Fixed an issue where gt branch edit would only work if the branch was not in need of restacking.

• Added support to rebase local changes on top of remote for downstack get

• Fixed a bug where choosing to cancel submit because of an empty branch did not abort correctly.

0.19.1 (2022-06-14)

• Removed some development tooling as a workaround to unblock Homebrew release. Sorry for the delay!

• Fixed a shebang issue that resulted from trying to clean up Node.js v18 warnings. Added a different fix to prevent Node.js warnings from showing up in CLI output.

• Fixed a bug with Node.js v14 support.

• Changed the Homebrew Node.js dependency to v16, which is the same as we use for development.
  

0.19.0 (2022-06-13)

• Ensured every commonly used command has an alias and changed a few names. A current list of commands will be included in the Community Slack with this release.

  • gt branch show is now gt branch info. As this command is relatively new, we are not leaving show as an alias.

  • gt branch create --restack is now gt branch create --insert. This was the originally intended name, and it does something different than gt repo sync --restack

  • gt downstack sync is now gt downstack get. It was confusing to have two sync commands do entirely different things!

  • The old names gt branch prev and gt branch next for down and up are now fully deprecated.

• Updated a significant portion of the info and error messages spanning almost every command.

• Ensured every command has up-to-date and helpful --help.

• Added a number of tips to various commands.

• Greatly improved autcompletion — now every command has autocomplete for nouns, verbs, flags, and branch names when applicable.

• gt branch checkout, gt upstack onto, and gt branch track now all have substring autocompletion for interactive branch selection. Enjoy! :D

• gt auth and gt user commands can now be run outside of a Git repository.

• Removed the concept of "ignored branches" from gt repo init, and the user config.Removed the gt repo ignored-branches command.

• Removed gt <scope> fix. fix is now an alias for restack.

• Removed gt <scope> validate

• Removed gt branch parent, gt branch children, and gt branch pr-info. All of this information is now found in gt branch info. gt branch rename is now the only way to reset PR info for a branch, as PR info is now synced by branch name for the open PR with that name.

• Removed gt repo fix.

• Removed gt repo trunk. You can change the trunk branch by running gt repo init --trunk <trunkName> .

• Removed exec functionality of gt downstack edit — we recommend using gt stack test for running a command on each branch in your stack.

• Added a new command gt branch track. In order to track an existing git branch <branchName>, ensure that it is based on a Graphite branch <parentBranchName>, and then with <parentBranchName> checked out, run gt branch track <branchName> to start tracking it as a Graphite branch.

  • You can also specify a --parent in gt branch track instead of checking out the desired parent before running the command.

  • If run without a branch to track gt branch track suggests branches that have the current branch/specified parent in their history.

• Added gt branch untrack to remove Graphite metadata for a branch.

• Added a new flow to gt repo init for letting users new to Graphite convert an existing "stack" of branches into a Graphite stack. Essentially calls gt branch track in a loop.

• Added a new verb gt <scope> restack for the branch, upstack, downstack, and stack nouns. For each branch in the scope, this command checks if the branch is based on its parent, and rebases it if necessary. gt upstack fix and gt stack fix will alias to restack for a couple versions.

• Improved gt log short - the view now essentially a single-line-per-branch version of gt log. The old style can still be accessed with gt log short --classic.

Added a --reverse option to gt log and gt log short/. Helpful for big stacks!

• Added --stack option for gt log and gt log short. Only displays the current stack (i.e. what `gt stack submit` would submit).

• Added --steps <n> option for gt log and gt log short. Implies --stack and only shows `n` levels above and below the current branch.

• Rebase conflict message now shows a gt log short --steps 3 centered at the branch being resolved.

• Interactive selection for gt branch checkoutand gt upstack onto now uses the new gt log short view. Much easier to see what you're doing with long branch names!

• gt dash can now open the PR page for the current branch or a specified one: gt dash pr [numberOrBranchName]

• gt branch info can now show the current PR description with --description.

• Added upstack and downstack counterparts of gt branch test.

• gt branch delete now restacks the deleted branch's children onto its parent.

• Removed the --resubmit flow from repo sync — we may add it back in the future.

• Added a --restack option to repo sync, which restacks the current branch and any branches in stacks with cleaned up branches. We imagine a common flow if you know that you don't have conflicts with trunk will be gt rs -rf. Or even gt rs -rf && gt ss.

• Fixed a bug where --draft and --no-draft on submit commands would unnecessarily submit unchanged PRs.

• Fixed bugs related to rebases not being performed properly that often resulted in confusing state and messaging.

• Now fails gracefully if running on an unsupported Node.js version (requires Node.js version 14 or higher)

• The Graphite CLI experience survey is no longer shown when commands are run in non-interactive mode.

**Note from the maintainers:**

Thanks for trying out the new version of the Graphite CLI! Please let us know if you see any issues with this new version, or have any suggestions for improvements related to functionality, flow, or transparency/simplicity.

New documentation for the CLI is coming soon! We love hearing your feedback about what documentation would be helpful — keep it coming!

Rebasing on gt downstack get has been outscoped for this release in order to get it to you sooner! We're still excited to put it out soon.

0.18.7 (2022-05-31)

• Fixed a pervasive bug that prevented using gt on Windows at all — there are likely still remaining issues to work out before we have full support, and we still recommend using WSL for the most stable Graphite experience. Thanks to our community for helping out here!

• Fixed a bug where git push error messages would not be displayed on submit, resulting in confusion around whether pushes were failing because of e.g. pre-push hooks or--force-with-lease errors.

• Added better support for multiple checkouts (i.e. git worktre`). We consider our support experimental, see the new section of the docs for details.

0.18.6 (2022-05-20)

• Fixed a bug where running gt branch rename on submitted branches would result in gt becoming largely unusable.

• Added a new --force/-f option to gt branch rename that is required for already-submitted branches.

• gt branch rename now respects character replacement settings.
  

0.18.5 (2022-05-19)

• . and / are no longer replaced in branch names.

• Fixed a regression where the current branch wouldn't be selected by default in gt branch checkout interactive mode.

• Upgraded node and yarn dependencies, please let us know if you see any weirdness!

0.18.4 (2022-05-16)

• gt downstack sync no longer requires turning on a configuration option to use (for real this time)

0.18.3 (2022-05-13)

• Rewrote gt downstack sync using a different mechanism for fetching remote stack dependencies.

• gt downstack sync no longer requires turning on a configuration option to use.

• Fixed an issue in submit where in-progress PR title wouldn't be saved if the user cancelled while writing the body.
  

0.18.2 (2022-05-12)

• Fixed certain cases of an issue where restacking after stack edit and commit create would use an incorrect upstream. A broader fix is coming in v0.19.0.

• Fixed an issue where after certain downstack edit or upstack onto flows, branches would be pushed to GitHub in an order that caused them to be closed prematurely.

• Added gt branch-prefix --reset to turn off the user prefix for automatically generated branch names.

• Cleaned up copy in submit commands.
  

0.18.1 (2022-05-10)

• gt repo sync and gt repo fix now prompt to delete closed branches in addition to merged ones.

• Added more customization for auto-generated branch name prefixes. Check out gt user branch-date and gt user branch-replacement.

• Config files are now written with 600 permissions instead of 644.

• Fixed an issue where downstack sync would overwrite the local copy of a branch even if the user chose not to.

• Fixed an issue where a misconfigured trunk wouldn't be brought to the user's attention.

• Fixed an issue where Graphite would fail to parse repository owner/name.

• Removed deprecation warning for gt stacks - it's been long enough.

• Cleaned up interactive mode copy for submit.
  

0.18.0 (2022-05-04)

New functionality

• Added an experimental command gt downstack sync to pull down the remote copy of a branch and its downstack dependencies from remote. This feature is gated behind a configuration by default, and we are still working on the documentation. If you would like to try it out and help us iterate on the feature, please join the #experimental channel in the Graphite community Slack server!

• Added additional functionality to submit to support the experimental collaboration features. Gated by default.

• Added additional functionality to gt repo sync to support the experimental collaboration features. Gated by default.

New commands

• Added a new command gt branch edit that runs a native git rebase --interactive over the commits on the current branch. This command is intended for advanced Git users who want to make use of the commit structure within a branch while working with Graphite.

• Added a new command gt branch show that runs a native git log over the commits on the current branch. Includes a --patch/-p option to view the diffs.

New ways to use existing commands

• Added an --insert option to gt branch create which restacks all children of the parent of the new branch onto the new branch itself.

• Added interactive branch selection for gt upstack onto (similar to gt branch checkout). No longer requires a positional argument.

• gt repo sync now handles --no-interactive correctly.

• gt commit amend --no-edit now fails and warns the user when there are no staged changes, just like gt commmit create.

• --no-edit is now aliased to -n for gt continue and gt commit amend.

• gt continue now supports --all/-a to stage all changes.

• gt branch delete now supports deleting the current branch. It checks out the parent (or trunk if Graphite cannot find a parent).

Fixes

• Fixed a bug where submit --no-interactive could prompt the user for reviewers.

• Fixed a bug where gt repo owner would set the remote as well, breaking sync and resulting in having to manually edit the configuration file to get Graphite working again.

• Fixed a bug where submit would fail for certain classes of branch name.

• Fixed a bug where comments in the gt downstack edit file were not respected.

• Fixed a bug where p as an alias for pick in gt downstack edit did not work properly.

• Fixed a bug where gt branch checkout interactive selection would fail if executed from an untracked branch.

• Fixed a bug where gt branch delete could fail to delete the branch but leave it in a corrupt state.

Improvements

• Improved the speed of stack validation for some commands.

• Cleaned up output of various commands and added more --debug logging.

Under the hood

• Added infra to backfill the SHA of branch parent in metadata globally wherever it is safe to do so to prepare for an upcoming update to the stack validation algorithm that we expect to improve performance and reduce hangs.
