Original commit message of the gocui change:
This fixes View.Size, Width and Height to be the correct (outer) size of a view
including its frame, and InnerSize/InnerWidth/InnerHeight to be the usable
client area exluding the frame. Previously, Size was actually the InnerSize (and
a lot of client code used it as such, so these need to be changed to InnerSize).
InnerSize, on the other hand, was *one* less than Size (not two, as you would
have expected), and in many cases this was made up for at call sites by adding 1
(e.g. in calcRealScrollbarStartEnd, parseInput, and many other places in the
lazygit code).
There are still some weird things left that I didn't address here:
- a view's lower-right coordinates (x1/y1) are one less than you would expect.
For example, a view with a 2x2 client area like this:
╭──╮
│ab│
│cd│
╰──╯
in the top-left corner of the screen (x0 and y0 both zero) has x1/xy at 3, not
4 as would be more natural.
- a view without a frame has its coordinates extended by 1 on all sides; to
illustrate, the same 2x2 view as before but without a frame, sitting in the
top-left corder of the screen, has coordinates x0=-1, y0=-1, x1=2, y1=2. This
is highly confusing and unexpected.
I left these as they are because they would be even more of a breaking change,
and also because they don't have quite as much of an impact on general app code.
We upgraded our minimum Go version to 1.21 in commit
57ac9c2189458a7f0e63c2e9cac8334694a3d545. We can now replace our
`utils.Min` and `utils.Max` functions with the built-in `min` and `max`.

Previously, the current line was only moved as much as necessary so that it's in
view again. This had the problem that when jumping downwards from hunk to hunk
with the right-arrow key, only the first line of the new hunk was shown at the
bottom of the window. I prefer to put the selected line in the middle of the
view in this case, so that I can see more of the newly selected hunk.
This has the consequence that when scrolling through the view line by line using
down-arrow, the view jumps by half a screen whenever I reach the bottom. I can
see how some users might be opposed to this change, but I happen to like it too,
because it allows me to see more context of what's ahead.
