How to remove files

[gldtn]

How do I remove tracked files? I only see a list of Untracked files.

Thanks!

The status buffer shows changes in git not files. An untracked file will have its entire content as a change, since it didn't exist before, whereas a tracked file will only show its changed hunks.

To remove a tracked file, you could use a tool meant for filesystem manipulation

Good idea - added here: 788e501 (#978)

It's bound to K on the status buffer.

I guess all I'm missing now is a way to show tracked files in the status buffer, for example:

 sections = {
        tracked = {
          folded = true,
          hidden = false,
        },
}

I tried the above which did not throw any errors, so I'm assuming it's there, but just not showing up?

That way I can use K on the files/folder, without being able to see the tracked files I'm still a bit lost on how to use the new bound key.

Thanks for your patience!

Ah, maybe there's a misunderstanding. There is no "tracked" section - The status buffer is essentially a projection of "git status" with extra bits. It's not a file browser. So if it doesn't show up when you run "git status" it doesn't show up there either.

I'll see about adding a thing for K in the next few days.

Alright, I think I made it a lot better. K will now launch a fuzzy finder with a list of all tracked files, and any files selected will be on the top of the list. Multiple files can be selected :)

Your awesome, exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks for integrating this feature!

[CKolkey]

Thanks for asking :)

[gldtn]

Multiple files can be selected :)

What is the key to select multiple files? I tried tab which I believe is the default for fzf-lua, and a few others but can't figure it out.

[CKolkey]

Oh, I use telescope, so multi-select is only implemented if you use that. The mini.pick and fzf-lua integrations were community provided, so some features are not available. I'm open to a PR to add it, but otherwise thats left to users to deal with.
