SourceTree on mac is stealing periodically? keyboard focus.

Rostislav Simonik August 16, 2019

Source tree is periodically stealing keyboard focus from other applications when it's running on background.

Testing scenario

  1. Open source tree application with opened specific repository, you can also some repos bookmarked (not sure if it's related) and keep running it on background
  2. Open any other application and starts writing. 
  3. After some period source tree steals for few milliseconds focus and returns back to given application.  (probably some periodical check on background)

 

Not desired consequence:

Not all characters you have written in your application are written. 

I've detected that by script which is watching applications that have current active focus.

Same here. SourceTree steals focus when I move from one macOS space to another on second display.

It's really annoying!

Disabling "Refresh automatically when files change" (in Preferences -> General) resolves the issue.
