github-for-mac-issues Sync branch while leaving uncommited files

You can only sync branches if you have no uncommitted files(that are not ignored and have been changed).

Request for change: syncing without committing all changed files.

Please change this. I bumped into this seemingly arbitrary limitation on my first commit-sync. I had to go back to CLI and do a manual "git push".

This would be great, a super important feature.

Yes, this is a pretty ridiculous limitation

Agreed. Would be very helpful to have this taken care of.

Likewise, can't believe this bug has been around for 9 months.

Agreed.. this is completely ridiculous limitation. Not only that but many other source control applications allow you to push/pull regardless of what's checked out..

Please fix this !

This. I'd really like it as well. Now I have to copy the content of a file, discard changed, sync, paste file content back

Actually, you can also push or pull specific changes using Command+P and Command+Shift+P

Would be really nice to know that Command Shift P does this.. there's no UI for it at all, it just happens when you hammer the keys.

Definitely this. I've been dealing with this for a while.
