1. Go to git log for local branch
2. Click "Switch to Remote" actions
3. The error in logs is shown:
TypeError: byId(node) is null
byId(node).innerHTML = "";

Probably a regression of some bug redesigning actions. We used to have "actions" td and "actionswrapper" span in it. Actions where rendered in "actionswrapper". Than we removed "actionswrapper" and actions where directly rendered in "actions" td. But there was a functions that was updating actions using "actionswrapper" id. I renamed "actions" to "actionswrapper", as "actionswrapper" is more commonly used in other places and now everything works again.

thanks, Gosia.  At some point I saw this bug go by and thought, "it's probably my fault" and then I forgot to follow up.

It didn't really break anything :)
