Submodule Update dialog cannot be re-sized and is too small to be useful in some cases

By indietorr... on June 04, 2015 17:47 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Right-click on the repository root directory.
  2. Choose "TortoiseGit" -> "Submodule Update..." from the context menu.
  3. Attempt to re-size the dialog window and realize that it cannot be re-sized.

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

I expect to be able to re-size this dialog so that I can actually see the full path for each submodule. Instead, I am unable to re-size the dialog and so cannot see the full path to submodules whose paths are even moderately lengthy.

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

TortoiseGit 1.8.14.0 (C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin)
git version 1.9.5.msysgit.1 (C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin)

Please provide any additional information below.

Screenshot attached. It would be great to be able to see to which directories these entries ultimately point.

I'm sure there is a reason for this dialog not being re-sizable, but is there any way to change this behavior to mimic most of the other dialog boxes in TortoiseGit?
