## IntelliJ-style changelists for VS Code

Git Worklists brings structured changelists to VS Code, allowing you to organize changes into clear, independent work units instead of managing a flat list of modified files.

It provides explicit control over:

- staging

- partial staging (line-level)

- commits and amend

- push workflows

- stash management

- **editor navigation via bookmarks**

All through a predictable UI built directly on top of the Git CLI.

Designed for developers who:

- miss IntelliJ changelists

- find VS Code’s default Source Control limiting

- want precise and explicit control over commits

---

## Why Git Worklists?

VS Code presents all changes in a flat list.

Git Worklists lets you:

- group related changes into changelists

- stage and commit them independently

- keep your work organized and intentional

---

## Demo

### Core Workflow

### Stash Preview and Management

Inspect and manage stashed changes with file-level previews.

## Documentation

For full details, advanced workflows, and edge-case behavior:

See the manual: [docs/MANUAL.md](docs/MANUAL.md)

---

## Requirements

- Git installed and available in PATH

- Workspace opened inside a Git repository

- VS Code **1.120.0** or newer

---

## Development Philosophy

Git Worklists avoids VS Code’s built-in SCM provider and instead builds a focused workflow using:

- Tree Views

- Commit UI

- Git CLI

The goal is clarity, explicit control, and predictable behavior.

---

**Git Worklists - focused Git workflows without surprises. 🚀**
