UI/UX

• Lists scrolling improved (affects all the lists like commits history, blame, changed files, etc.)
• Buttons & text fields use a design more fit for desktop usage.
• Tabs can now be scrolled when overflowing.
• Tabs are now easier to click on by removing unnecessary spacing at the top.
• Improved dialogs UX to add more information about certain operations, specially helpful for users with less experience using Git.

• Small tweaks in how UI components are displayed when the screen has a lower resolution or the window is smaller.
