Branches & history

Coming soon

This guide is being expanded. For now, here’s a sketch of what it will cover.

What’s planned

• Creating branches — from HEAD, from any commit, from a remote tracking branch. Whether to spawn a fresh worktree automatically.
• Renaming branches — both locally and on the upstream remote in one operation.
• Deleting branches — safe-delete (only merged) vs. force-delete, with reflog escape hatches.
• Browsing history — the graph view, filtering by author/date/path, jumping to a commit.
• Searching commits — by message, by content, by changed file.
• File history — per-file timeline with diffs, follows renames.
• The reflog — recovering “lost” commits after a reset --hard or a botched rebase.
