EGit/New and Noteworthy/3.2

EGit

Features

• Interactive rebase allows to quickly edit a series of commits

• Support for configuration option rebase.autostash. Automatically create a temporary stash before a rebase operation begins, and apply it after the operation ends. This means that you can run rebase on a dirty worktree. However, use with care: the final stash application after a successful rebase might result in non-trivial conflicts.

• Add dropping multiple stashed commits in repositories view, select multiple stashes and click "Delete Stashed Commits..."

• Push Branch / Initial Push wizard simplifies pushing a branch and also allows upstream configuration for new branches created by the push operation

• Push Tags wizard simplifies pushing one or multiple tags

• Improve UI of upstream configuration when creating a branch

• Blame annotations: Add link for showing commit in history and open
• Blame annotations: Show start commit when opening editor
• Blame annotations: Show diff in hover and enable blaming parent commits

• PSF import also supports checking out tags, not only branches
• Make Merge Tool work for non-workspace files
• Rebase: Show dialog in case there are uncommitted changes
• "Search all" option for find toolbar in history view
