When creating branch replace 'space' with configurable character
As a user when I create branch and giving it a name, when I press the space char it write underscore char. (right now the space character does nothing).
This feature is implemented in GitEye.

Martin Morin MergedWe often create branches and we cannot use spaces when naming a branch.
To improve the UX, I would like spaces replaced by another character of my choosing when I type in the name of a branch. This would make branch naming more natural.
For instance, I replace " " with _ -

Peter HeadlandI frequently have a description of the task from elsewhere, and I want to copy+paste it in to the branch name and have it made legal. I think SourceTree has this feature?

Victor AlfonsoIt would be great to add this ability when creating a new branch or renaming branches, it's something I miss from the Github GUI Client in GitKraken.

Mark Kamphuis MergedOn creating a new feature, hotfix, release or branch, we now must type in the separators (e.g. '-' or '_') ourselves, because whitespaces are not allowed in the name. Many other applications like SourceTree, fork, and Tower already have a pretty handy function for this. Some have a standard whitespace overwrite setting; the other is hardcoded, and force replaces them. So, when creating a new branch, whitespaced will automatically be converted to a standard separator. It's not a pretty big feature, but I find it very convenient to work with as I create many features and branches.

YuriyAny updates on this feature? As a paying customer, I believe these minor tweaks could make a significant difference.
Without them, I might look into alternatives.
