Git Workflow

Every git action has a keyboard shortcut. Pane shows you the command it will run before executing — no surprises.

Core actions

Commit stages all changes in the pane’s worktree and opens a message dialog. Write your message and confirm to create the commit. Push sends the branch to remote. Rebase pulls the latest from main into your branch, keeping your history clean. Merge squash-merges your branch into main and closes the pane.

Rebase before merge. This ensures your changes sit on top of the latest main and the squash commit applies cleanly.

Fetch updates remote tracking refs without modifying your branch. No keyboard shortcut — click the button in the git toolbar.Stash saves all uncommitted changes to the git stash and clears the working tree. Pop Stash restores the most recent stash. Both are click-only and useful when you need a clean slate temporarily.

The undo commit action runs git reset --soft HEAD~1, moving the last commit back to staging. Your changes are preserved — only the commit is unwound. Use this to amend a message or split changes before re-committing.

Commits use your global git identity (user.name and user.email). Pane does not modify commit attribution.If you use a custom system prompt or agent configuration that appends a footer to commit messages, that footer appears in the commit body, not the subject line.

Git actions are disabled while a pane is in the running or initializing state. This prevents conflicts between an active agent and a concurrent git operation on the same worktree. Wait for the agent to finish, or stop it manually before committing or pushing.
