Built-in Git

The Git panel in Codux is built natively, not embedded as a webview. Toggle it any time with ⌘⇧G. It is project-scoped: each project keeps its own Git state, so you can review staged changes in one project while an agent is mid-turn in another.

Repository setup

• Initialize an empty folder, or clone a remote repository.
• Clone uses your system Git and credential helpers; if it hits an authentication error, Codux prompts for a username/token and retries.

Staging & diffs

• Stage or unstage selected files — or everything — and discard selected changes.
• Inspect a unified diff for any changed file.
• Add a file or a whole directory to .gitignore straight from the sidebar.
• Directory rows carry section-aware stage / unstage / discard / ignore actions.

Commits

• Commit, commit & push, or commit & sync from the same panel.
• Generate a commit message with AI from the staged diff.
• Amend the last commit message, or undo the last commit (soft reset).

Branches & remotes

• Checkout local or remote branches; create a branch, optionally from a specific commit.
• Merge or squash-merge a branch; delete a branch (force when needed).
• Add or remove remotes, copy a remote URL, and choose the push target.

History

• Browse recent commits, and from any commit checkout, revert, or restore your working tree to that revision locally.

Sync

• Fetch, pull (rebase), push, and force push.
• One-shot sync pulls (rebase) then pushes in a single action.
• Long-running fetch / pull / push / sync can be cancelled mid-flight.

Code review

• Review your changes against a base branch, with a side-by-side base/current view per file.

Worktrees

• Create, merge, and remove Git worktrees via the New Worktree flow. Each worktree behaves like its own project workspace.

The panel auto-refreshes as files change on disk. Not in the panel today: stash, blame, cherry-pick, tags, and in-app merge-conflict resolution (conflicts are surfaced for you to resolve manually).
