TODO-list

Maintain multiple branches

Need a way to update a default game and to be able to rewind and start a new named game.

gogogo's Issues

Gracefully fail to find the board

When trying to load a game, fail more gracefully than a silent stuck page.

Delete branch

You cannot delete you current branch.
A branch deletion moves the branch $branch named by a token-holding user or pointed to by HEAD to refs/heads/archive/$branch-yyyymmddhhmmss -- with datetime in GMT
Branches in archives are not returned in branch index.

You might be able to opt for permanent deletion in the message body.

Feature: New branch with blank board

I want to be able to create a new branch with an initial-state board rooted in the root of the revision tree.

put a red dot on the last stone that was moved

It is possible to unknowingly make moves against a stale game

Moves sent by a player can be applied to a board state that a player has never seen. Moves should be sent with the board signature to assure they are applied with knowledge of the board state.

Keyboard Shortcuts

There should be at least a couple of very basic keyboard shortcuts available in the web client.

De-registration after each move

When the board refreshes after my opponent has made a move, it de-registers as the black player and I have to confirm.

user messaging

so we can talk shit.

Browser notification when the game changes without being watched.

Animate the title, or something, to know when you should glance back at the board.

Game JSON fetch request pileup

If a game JSON fetch takes longer than a ping cycle then each ping cycle starts an additional board request. There should be only one board request at a time with a reasonable timeout for retry.

Inconsistent validation

branches may be created with a '.' character in their name, however such branches can not be checked out.

Remove captured shapes for scoring

When calculating score, remove opponent's pieces that are "captured"

Look into what it means for a shape to be "captured"

atari notification

Fails in Firefox (Linux/Mac)

Complains that the font JSON is not well formed, and doesn't render the board.

Panic.
