In "Branch Coloring" mode, the log line of the branch is in bold black, while other branches are in soft gray.  To make it easier for the eye to scan through, the commit text of the other branches should be grayed as well.

However, grayed text is already taken up by merge-commits, so the change of behavior may be confusing for existing users.  But in my opinion, graying out a merge-commit doesn't mean much, and I would rather have the grayed behavior taken up by this RFE.

Would be nice to have a option to clone a new repository 'light' (git clone --depth=1).

Even better an additional option 'fast start' after depth=1 clone, smartgit can fill up the history slowly in the background, while people can work on the code already

Similar to http://smartgit.userecho.com/topics/353-when-creating-a-new-feature-gitflow-get-the-user-the-opportunity-to-select-jira-ticket-as-branch

It would be very useful to configure default option for feature finishing with git flow.

Configuration may implicit (e.g. in configuration file) or explicit (e.g. remember the last option used.

Quite often, I just want to view a git repo quickly and without saving it to the list of the repos in smartgit. It will be a lot efficient for my workflow to be able to just start smartgit from the command line and start browsing the git repo (and then forget about the repo).

Note that this can already be done using system properties: https://www.syntevo.com/doc/display/SG/System+Properties#SystemProperties-Journal

In Ubuntu it is necessary to close the application so that the open repositories are kept in the sidebar

If you pull from a repo containing a file such as Invalid<"file">.xml then SmartGit on Windows throws error messages about not being able to stash, merge, etc. The only route forward issuing gitbash to resolve before you can resume using SmartGit.

Alphabetical ordering doesn't really scale well when you work with a lot of repositories. I'd like to be able to custom order (either via drag-and-drop or arrow buttons) my groups and repositories so I can shift them around as priorities change without needing to put them in "A Most Important Group!"

If i had one commit unpushed i wanted to see it down below in the outgoing section. The problem here is that there is no option here to filter only the unpushed items.
