Sourcetree 4.2.14_297 under macOS 26.1 (Tahoe) hangs

Michael Brian Bentley

I had thought I had posted a message about this a while ago, but I don't see it now. Sourcetree 4.2.14_297 appears to hang, a few seconds after opening the app.

When I start it for the first time in a while, it doesn't show any unstaged but changed files, even though I know there are some; clicking on the relevant checkboxes produces no effect. I have to force quit to exit the app.

Starting sourcetree again, I then see the expected short list of unstaged files. I'm still unable to do anything with the app, and I have to force-quit.

So far today, sourcetree hanging like this is happening 100% of the time. When (I thought) I posted my original report about this a few days ago, I was able to commit changes a couple of hours later, but I didn't trust the app and haven't used it in a while. 

Is anyone not seeing this problem?

Thanks!

Ironically, release notes for 4.2.14 say there have been stability improvements 😅

I believe there have been other reports related to issues with 4.2.x versions.

Not sure what you could do here @Michael Brian Bentley, but try to use 4.2.13 or 4.2.12 instead from the download archives.

You could also check if there are open bugs related to 4.2.14, but I did a quick scan and haven't found anything.
Also, you can create a new bug report related to issues you're experiencing > if you do so, feel free to share the link here. 👀
