Log revision popup variants

This connected family follows GitLogListBase.cpp's selected-count branches, parent menus, clipboard/Find tail, and GitLogListAction.cpp's comparison and ID_FINDENTRY handlers at pinned commit 7338078f8ddd924b8cddee35f512f2286072136d.

Source-shaped command groups

Existing branch/ref targeting, transport, Rebase/Merge, Revert, Combine, Cherry Pick, patch, Bisect, deletion and clipboard payloads retain their current native factories and captured-menu ownership. Main command ordering follows the source comparison group. Separator normalization removes leading, trailing and adjacent separator entries without changing command payloads. This does not claim complete consumer-specific menu-mask parity.

Find and clipboard

Find now appears after the clipboard submenu, with the original filter-edit icon. It opens the existing native Find window. The popup captures the clicked selection mark before menu tracking ends; Find starts from that row even after menu-close cleanup. Keyboard context menus capture their selected row. Other menu commands no longer reset the Find cursor merely by opening the popup. Find is dispatched through the same one-use captured target as the other revision commands, so selection replacement, away/return, reload or another use refuses an old invocation. Existing Command-F and Find window ownership remain intact.

Working-tree clipboard commands use the synthetic row's displayed subject/body and captured tracked-file snapshot, rather than asking Git to resolve its empty hash. Full details include status/path/rename origins; no-path details omit that list. Mixed selections preserve displayed order and include both synthetic working-tree details and pinned commit details. Empty revision/author/date fields remain empty for the synthetic row. A private clipboard can be injected for QA. The existing cancellable commit-detail reader and permission checks are retained.

Verification and remaining work

Dated results record the actual Debug build, native menu/clipboard/Find checks and retained history/Find regressions on system and bundled Git. The new receiver uses a real native Log and bare clone; comparison and Revert dialog handoffs are injected. It checks exact endpoints, synthetic-row exclusion and unchanged HEAD/index/working contents.

No new popup screenshot or physical tracking/VoiceOver claim is made. All consumer-specific masks, minimum-size/long-label positioning, signed Finder and full application parity remain open. The connected Revert selection continuation preserves mixed working-tree/root, merge and stash batch semantics. Incomplete/ discontinuous Follow history still needs further source comparison and acceptance; the synthetic row is never passed to Git as a commit.

Filtered and projected range selection — October 16, 2026

Pinned GitLogListBase::IsSelectionContinuous treats one selected row as continuous. For multiple rows, the shown list must contain every loaded walk row and the selected indices must be adjacent. It does not infer continuity merely from adjacency after a filter, graph compression or rollup has hidden rows.

The native Log now retains the raw walk row count with each displayed projection. Compare for three or more selections, Format Patch ranges of three or more and Combine use this source rule. Two-row endpoint comparison and Format Patch keep the source's explicit exception even when other rows are hidden; Combine still requires continuity. A single filtered row remains continuous. An active filter that matches every row does not disable range commands. File-scoped/Follow walks use their own raw result rather than treating unrelated repository commits as hidden display rows. Follow does not acquire a new single-tip or ancestry rule.

Incremental history prefixes publish their source count with their graph/rows. Cancellation or failure restores the previous coherent count and display. A finished walk counts its optional working-tree row consistently with the displayed list. Existing limits define the loaded walk, not an assertion that the repository history has no additional commits.

Revision popup relays now capture the display projection epoch in addition to load generation, selected hashes and references. Replacing rows/order expires an old popup even when its selected entries remain unchanged. Combine's asynchronous ancestry check and final dispatch retain the same projection identity; late validation cannot enable an old menu item after filtering/reordering. Busy history loads do not start new Combine validation reads from their partial prefix.

Ordinary revision picker Logs retain the ordinary upstream Log menu mask. SetSelect changes selection behavior; it does not impose an invented read-only command set. Dedicated Rebase/Blame/RefLog lists retain their existing native consumer-specific command implementations. This continuation addresses range eligibility, not complete mask certification for every consumer.

See grouped native evidence for actual filtered/labeled/Follow menus, captured patch ranges, failed-load restoration, held Combine read and retained popup/history/streaming checks. Core code and the existing FormatPatchPreset.hasHiddenRows policy are unchanged. Full physical menu tracking, all rollup/filter/Follow combinations, visual/VoiceOver behavior, signed Finder and App Store acceptance remain open.
