Add configurable diff font, colors, and syntax highlighting

Adds user-configurable appearance settings for the diff view (font, added/removed colors, syntax highlighting) and wires them through app state, persistence, and settings UI.

What changed

  • New settings model (macgit/Models/DiffAppearanceSettingsDraft.swift): holds font name/size and added/removed background and text colors, with an NSFont fallback to the monospaced system font when a named font is unavailable.
  • New store (macgit/Services/DiffAppearanceSettingsStore.swift): persists the diff appearance settings.
  • Snapshot model (macgit/Models/AppSettingsSnapshot.swift): adds diffFontName, diffFontSize, diffAddedBackgroundColor, diffAddedTextColor, diffRemovedBackgroundColor, diffRemovedTextColor, and diffSyntaxHighlighting, with defaults and decodeIfPresent fallbacks for backward-compatible decoding.
  • App state (macgit/App/AppState.swift): injects DiffAppearanceSettingsStore and AdvancedSettingsStore (defaulting to shared instances for UserDefaults.standard), includes diff values in loaded and computed snapshots, applies them in apply(_:), and adds applyLocalDiffSettings(appearance:syntaxHighlighting:).
  • Settings UI: new macgit/Views/Common/DiffSettingsView.swift, with related updates in AdvancedSettingsView, AppSettingsDetailView, AppSettingsSection, and AppSettingsView.
  • Diff rendering: updates in DiffNativeTextStore, DiffNativeTable, DiffHunkCanvas, DiffHunkGeometry, and DiffView to consume the new appearance settings.
  • Persistence: FirestoreSettingsStore updated to include the new fields.
  • Tests: updates to AppSettingsSnapshotTests, CloudSettingsDocumentTests, and DiffNativeTableTests.

Notes / uncertainty

  • The supplied patch was truncated during DiffAppearanceSettingsStore.swift and the remaining view/test files were not shown in full, so the specifics of the store logic, UI, and test coverage are not confirmed here. The summaries above are based on file names and the visible portions of the diff only.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a dedicated Diff settings section for choosing the code font and size, customizing added- and removed-line colors, and toggling syntax highlighting.
    • Diff views now reflect your appearance settings, including colors and font size.
    • Diff appearance and syntax-highlighting preferences are included in settings snapshots and cloud settings.
    • You can choose to delete a matching remote branch when deleting a local branch.
  • Changes
    • Moved the syntax-highlighting toggle from Performance & Cache to Diff settings.
    • Long branch menu titles are truncated to fit, with the full title available on hover.

Persist diff appearance settings locally and in Firestore, expose them through a new diff settings view, and apply them in the diff renderer.

📝 Walkthrough
📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Diff settings now include font, size, added and removed line colors, and syntax highlighting. The settings are stored locally and in cloud snapshots, exposed in a Diff settings section, and applied by diff rendering. Branch deletion can also include a matching remote branch. Sidebar branch menus truncate oversized titles.

Changes

Diff Appearance Settings

Layer / File(s) Summary
Diff settings state and persistence
macgit/Models/AppSettingsSnapshot.swift, macgit/Models/DiffAppearanceSettingsDraft.swift, macgit/Services/DiffAppearanceSettingsStore.swift, macgit/Services/FirestoreSettingsStore.swift, macgit/App/AppState.swift, macgitTests/AppSettingsSnapshotTests.swift, macgitTests/CloudSettingsDocumentTests.swift
Settings snapshots and local and cloud storage now include diff appearance and syntax-highlighting values. The stores apply defaults and validate persisted values.
Diff settings interface
macgit/Views/Common/AppSettingsSection.swift, macgit/Views/Common/AppSettingsDetailView.swift, macgit/Views/Common/AppSettingsView.swift, macgit/Views/Common/DiffSettingsView.swift, macgit/Views/Common/AdvancedSettingsView.swift
A Diff section provides controls for syntax highlighting, font, size, and added and removed line colors. Saving applies the drafts; closing reloads them. The syntax-highlighting toggle was removed from Advanced settings.
Diff rendering integration
macgit/Views/Common/Diff/DiffHunkCanvas.swift, macgit/Views/Common/Diff/DiffNativeTextStore.swift, macgit/Views/Common/DiffHunkGeometry.swift, macgit/Views/Common/DiffNativeTable.swift, macgit/Views/Common/DiffView.swift, macgitTests/DiffNativeTableTests.swift
Diff rendering uses configured fonts and line colors. Geometry accounts for font size, and native rendering refreshes when appearance settings change. Diff text uses fixed sizing rather than the app-wide text scale.

Matching Remote Branch Deletion

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve matching remote targets
macgit/Models/RemoteBranchDeleteResolver.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/Sidebar/RemoteBranchDeleteTarget.swift, macgit/Views/Common/BranchSheetView.swift, macgitTests/RemoteBranchDeleteResolverTests.swift
Deletion items resolve remote targets from upstream or matching remote branches. Resolver tests cover upstream priority, origin preference, a sole match, and ambiguous matches.
Remote deletion controls
macgit/Views/Common/BranchSheetView.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/Sidebar/SidebarBranchPresentationModifier.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/Sidebar/SidebarDeleteBranchSheet.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/SidebarView.swift
Single- and multi-branch deletion interfaces provide an opt-in choice to delete matching remote branches and include selected targets in confirmation details.
Delete and undo operations
macgit/Views/Common/BranchSheetView.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/SidebarView+BranchActions.swift
Deletion captures remote branch hashes and can delete matching remote branches. Undo and redo handle local and remote branches; failed remote deletion registers local-only undo.

Sidebar Menu Titles

Layer / File(s) Summary
Constrain branch menu titles
macgit/Views/MainWindow/Sidebar/SidebarNativeList.swift, macgit/Views/MainWindow/SidebarView+NativeMenus.swift
Sidebar branch menus set a title-width limit. Oversized item and submenu titles are truncated, with the full title available as a tooltip.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d4003

Most of this change looks safe to merge. A few minor issues remain in diff color persistence and in the optional remote-branch deletion. A picked color that cannot convert to sRGB may be saved as black. Deleting a branch whose remote counterpart is already gone can produce an error after the local branch is deleted. Undo may restore the remote branch to a different commit than it had. Address these before or soon after merging.

before storing it, using the corresponding `Self.Defaults` color when conversion
fails. This ensures locally archived colors match the fixed sRGB values written
by `hexString(from:)`.

Truncate long menu titles with an ellipsis via binary search on measured width and expose the full text as a tooltip; propagate the limit to submenus.
Resolve remote delete targets from upstream or unique matching branches, preserving undo by capturing remote hash before deletion.

Add a test for an upstream whose remote branch no longer exists.

No test covers an upstream that is missing from branchesByRemote. Add one after you change the resolver.

branchesByRemote confirms that the remote contains the branch; otherwise
continue through the existing fallback path.

macgit/Views/Common/BranchSheetView.swift, lines 788-809, and
macgit/Views/MainWindow/SidebarView+BranchActions.swift, lines 226-247, so undo
restores the remote branch to remoteHash rather than pushing the local branch
tip. Use the existing push operation or an appropriate equivalent to target
refs/heads/<remoteTarget.branch> with remoteHash at both sites; keep the
matching redo expectedHash behavior intact.
