Rebase history tools family — October 18, 2026

Baseline: TortoiseGit 7338078f8ddd924b8cddee35f512f2286072136d. Source references are GitLogListBase.cpp::OnContextMenu and OnFindDialogMessage, GitLogListAction.cpp (Export, containing references and range logs), RebaseDlg.cpp::OnLvnItemchangedLoglist, FindDlg.cpp, CommitIsOnRefsDlg.cpp, IDD_REBASE, IDD_COMMITISONREFS and the shared IDD_FIND resource.

The replay table connects the shared native Find dialog, Export this version, Show branches this commit is on and all three two-revision Log ranges. Find keeps an occurrence index, so repeated Cherry Pick entries remain distinct even when hashes match. Text Find advances after the selection mark and wraps. Shift Find scrolls without changing selection and italicizes matching hashes. Ordinary native selection clears the emphasis. Reference navigation uses the first displayed matching occurrence. Search history, regex/case options, reference filtering and source artwork reuse the existing native Find implementation.

Export reuses the existing native Export workflow and source tag preference. The existing owned column-metadata read also loads the peeled reference map; menus and Find receive real decorations without starting Git from a popup. Find reads changed paths from Git instead of borrowing asynchronously refreshed selection details that might belong to a different row. Forward, reverse and symmetric Log ranges capture canonical row hashes and retain the parent repository, access lease and preferences. The containing-reference window retains its existing revision chooser, filter, reference list, Log and comparison actions. Source icons honor the app context-menu icon preference. Menus use the replay table's existing single-use receipts and reject stale selection, plan, phase, owner or consumer state.

Helper windows inherit the parent appearance and visibility before presentation. Find error sheets and containing-reference pickers block parent actions and normal close. Forced parent retirement closes its helpers, cancels reads and rejects late navigation. Quit accounting and access leases survive until cancelled Git reads actually return, including reads belonging to already closed windows.

The grouped runner is scripts/test-rebase-history-tools.py. It combines the new Rebase interaction fixture with retained Log Find, containing-reference, Export and replay-menu checks. Each case uses a separate process and private repository/preferences. This batch changes native consumers only; it does not require another full Core integration run. Actual checkpoint results and limitations are recorded in batch evidence.

Native status text replaces the source Windows flashing/beep feedback; font and focus rendering follow AppKit.

The reference context continuation adds pointed reference menus and further applicable shared Log actions. Remaining work includes a compiled Windows enabled/omitted comparison, metadata changes during a search and every mutation-to-Find refresh route. Physical mouse/keyboard and VoiceOver acceptance, full dialog visual comparison, minimum macOS/Intel, current hosted CI, signed sandbox/Finder deployment and App Store distribution remain separate gates. This family does not certify the whole port.
