Issue created Aug 02, 2015 by Sven Strickroth@mrtuxOwner

don't enter branch directory when renaming a branch

By alexander.duytschae... on December 15, 2014 12:44 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. select a "top-level" branch (one without / in its name)
  2. rename to a subdirectory

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to stay in the same dir, and see the branch renamed (in the correct dir).

Instead, I am ported to the subdir. I always have to go back.

(and also, I cannot rename towards a higher level dir - ../ won't work although logically it might ... )

(and also, it is difficult to distinguish branches from subdirectories)

What version of TortoiseGit and msysgit are you using? On
what operating system?

tgit 1.8.12
ms 1.9.4
Windows 7
