long operations are blocking all application controls #2224

Open kaynn opened 1 month ago

kaynn commented 1 month ago

long operations such as cloning a large repo, pulling with very large change list, rebase, ect

the problem is that the application shows a modal dialog and all the application controls are inaccessible.

it would be nice if such modal dialog were tab (working copy) specific

Dialogs in WPF blocks all windows, so it's not possible.

Yes, rebase blocks the UI. However, clone is performed as a background operation. It's the same with pull. So, I don't see a big problem.
