Hot Exit allows you to quickly exit the application for whatever reason when you have unsaved changes in files without having to go through the “Save Changes” dialog box.

We’ve brought another new feature to Visual Studio for Mac 17.5 called Hot Exit. Git isn’t the only area that has seen improvements. The new git changes tool window with an improved work flowĪnd if you don’t have a Git repository set up yet, we’ve added some extra guidance in dialogs to help you get started. Inline buttons allow files to be staged, unstaged, or have the changes discarded. In addition to being a more familiar experience, the UI also makes it easier to see what changes are staged and what changes still need to be acted upon. The Git Changes tool window is now more aligned with the UI you already know on Visual Studio for Windows, helping people who switch between both environments. In the branch selector menu, you can create a new branch or switch and manage existing branches and tags.Ĭlicking on the Changes indicator reveals the Git Changes tool window, where we have made some other significant changes. From here, you can quickly see what branch you are on at any time and whether there are changes that need to be staged. The most noticeable new Git feature is the new Git Branch Selector in the status bar. Download Visual Studio for Mac v17.5 Git Improvements
