Fixes #13406.

On a clean branch that is up to date with its upstream, the Git actions chevron stays clickable and opens a menu where Commit, Push and Create PR are all disabled. Julius confirmed this on main in the issue.

The chevron is now disabled when the menu would hold nothing usable. hasUsableGitMenuContent in GitActionsControl.logic.ts treats the menu as worth opening when an action can run, when Publish repository is offered, or when the menu has something to say: the detached HEAD note, the behind-upstream note, or a status error. Those notes keep the menu open even when every action is disabled, so nothing the menu used to show becomes unreachable. The two note conditions are pulled into named booleans so the menu body and the trigger read the same values.

#18730 targets the same issue but has conflicts and also reworks the window-focus status refresh, which this fix doesn't need.

Mobile has no equivalent dropdown; its git sheet always carries Terminal and Files.

Before / after

Clean main, up to date with origin/main, in the web dev app:

Before	After
Before: the chevron opens a menu of three disabled actions	After: the chevron is disabled next to the disabled Commit action

Verification

vp run check:changed passes (format, lint, knip, typecheck, tests, react compiler).
New case in GitActionsControl.logic.test.ts: clean branch disables the menu; uncommitted changes, commits ahead, Publish repository, or a note enable it; a connection without source-control write access disables it.
In the web dev app with a Replay turn: the chevron is disabled on a clean branch, and editing a file re-enables it (the quick action becomes Commit & push) after the status refresh.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 0de1457

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Disables the Git actions dropdown when it contains no usable actions or notices, while preserving access to publishing and status messages. The change is limited to UI availability and leaves Git operations and permissions unchanged.

Walkthrough

The Git action menu now checks whether it has usable content. When it has no usable content, the control refreshes VCS status on pointer entry or focus. The trigger is disabled when an action is running or no usable content is available.

Changes: Git action menu availability

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Define menu usability `apps/web/src/components/GitActionsControl.logic.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/GitActionsControl.logic.test.ts`	A new helper returns true when publishing is available, a notice is present, or source-control writing is available and at least one menu item is enabled. Tests cover these conditions.
Apply menu usability to the control `apps/web/src/components/GitActionsControl.tsx`	The control uses available menu items, publishing eligibility, and Git-status notices to determine whether the menu has usable content. It refreshes VCS status on pointer entry or focus when the menu has no usable content. The trigger is disabled when an action is running or the menu has no usable content. The detached-head and clean-and-behind notice conditions and messages remain unchanged.

Keyboard users may need to wait for the success indicator to expire or use another refresh path before Git actions become available. The change is otherwise mergeable.

Explanation

The description is mostly complete. It explains the problem, the implementation, scope through the linked issue, verification results, screenshots, manual checks, and the agent used. The change and scope content is present even though it is not organized under the template's exact section headings.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue [#13406] requires the Git actions dropdown trigger to disable when no Git actions are available. hasUsableGitMenuContent returns false when no enabled action, publish option, or notice exists. GitActionsControl.tsx uses this result to disable the trigger. The shared notice conditions preserve access to detached-HEAD, behind-upstream, and status-error content. GitActionsControl.logic.test.ts covers clean, dirty, ahead, publish, notice, and missing write-access cases.

Keep status refresh available when the menu is disabled.

With Git fetching disabled, an edit in the in-app terminal can leave the cached status clean. The disabled trigger then blocks the menu refresh, so Commit remains unavailable until another refresh, such as returning focus to the window.

Wrap the refresh handler at the prop boundary.
refreshStatusForEmptyMenu leaves this large component through both event props. Wrap the plain function once with useStableCallback, then pass the stable handler to both props. As per coding guidelines, large components should “wrap them with useStableCallback only where they leave the component: props, hook dependency arrays, and effect or memo bodies.”

Evidence

Real web app in Chromium on Linux, 1280×800, light theme. Each commit used a fresh database, four identical synthetic repositories and replay-backed threads, and automatic Git fetching disabled. The environment label shows the actual checkout revision. Every still was inspected after consecutive screenshots 500 ms apart matched.

Open clean main synchronized with upstream; attempt the Git actions chevron.
Open the menu in repositories with no remote, detached HEAD, and one commit behind upstream.
Edit README.md in the in-app terminal without changing window focus, then Tab through Git controls and open the menu.
Restore README.md and refresh. Edit again, hover the action group, then physically attempt the chevron.

State	Before — b3fdf2b10f	After — f693214f6f
Clean branch: chevron attempt	Before: all-disabled menu opens	After: disabled chevron stays closed
Publishing remains reachable	Before: publishing option	After: publishing option
Detached HEAD notice	Before: detached HEAD notice	After: detached HEAD notice
Behind-upstream notice	Before: behind-upstream notice	After: behind-upstream notice
Terminal edit, then keyboard focus	Before: keyboard focus leaves stale status	After: keyboard focus refreshes status and enables actions
Second edit, then chevron attempt	Before: refreshed menu opens	After: status refreshes and controls enable
Scripted interaction	Before recording	After recording

Base opens three disabled actions on clean main; head keeps the disabled chevron closed. Publishing and both notices remain accessible on head. Keyboard focus refreshes head after a terminal edit. After the second edit, hovering the group center alone leaves both sides stale; attempting the chevron refreshes head and enables Commit and the chevron. That first head-side click does not open the menu; base opens its refreshed menu.
