Thanks for reporting! Bad news here, I'm afraid... The entire revision graph feature was removed in 5.0.4 and later, because it was hppelessly bugged in any situation that we tested. See https://phabricator.kde.org/D4076 . Patches welcome for a graph view that actually works (or any other VCS improvements, the current status is not great). |
The git vcs plugin seems to be parsing the string "(HEAD detached at origin/master)" as an actual branch name, this seems wrong. Steps to reproduce: bash$ git --version git version 2.15.0.rc0.271.g36b669edcc bash$ git checkout origin/master # i do this often, without creating a local branch ... bash$ git branch * (HEAD detached at origin/master) other branches here Right click file, Git > Revision Graph... > git rev-list remotes/origin/some-branch '^(HEAD detached at origin/master)' fatal: bad revision '^(HEAD detached at origin/master)' Command finished with error UnknownError.
