What is implemented, when controls disable, and what still requires the CLI.

Git operations and safeguards

Current operations

AreaOperations
Working tree Stage, unstage, discard, clean, inspect diff.
Commits Commit, amend, checkout, revert, reset soft/mixed/hard.
Stash Create, apply/pop where available, and drop with confirmation.
Remote Fetch, fast-forward-only pull, push, and initial upstream setup.
Explore History filters, columns, refs, source tree, file tabs, and appearance.

Controls reflect repository preconditions

Actions disable when Git would reject them. For example, revert is unavailable while the index contains staged work, and amend is enabled only for HEAD. This avoids offering an operation that is known to violate the current repository state.

Process execution

  • Git commands use argument arrays instead of interpolated shell strings.
  • Literal pathspec handling avoids treating unusual filenames as Git options or patterns.
  • Blocking Git commands run on background threads so the UI remains responsive.
  • Authentication is delegated to configured Git credential helpers and SSH agents.
