      SourceTree 2.6.3, macOS 10.13

    • Severity 1 - Critical

      PLEASE DO NOT irreversibly delete files when I press Cmd-Delete while typing in a text field. This is a standard macOS text editing keystroke. When typing in a text fields on macOS, Cmd-Delete is the standard key combo for deleting text between the cursor and the beginning of the line. It should not be overridden to delete your files.

      Almost every time I edit a commit message in SourceTree, I inevitably hit this key combo at some point and this scary message pops up: “Confirm Remove Modified or Untracked Files? The following files contain changes or information which is not in source control, and will be irretrievably lost if you remove them”
