Fixes #2.

Changes

  • git() in src-tauri/src/git.rs starts git with the CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag on Windows. Windows no longer opens a console window for each git command, so nothing flashes and nothing takes the focus away from gites. The flag is only set in Windows builds.
  • load() in src/App.vue does nothing while a reload is still running. The window gets focus often, and overlapping reloads only run git more times.

Checked

  • The Windows part of git() compiles for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc. A deliberate type error in that part was reported, which proves the compiler checked it.
  • Unit tests for the window code and the Rust code pass, and the type checks pass.

Not checked

Nobody has run this build on Windows yet. The flashing and the slowness should stop. The 0xc0000142 crash should stop too if it came from the console windows, but that is not proven. Please try it on Windows before merging.
