Standard window, All Branches & Tags: use tree control

Martin Stolpe 3 weeks ago updated by Thomas Singer 3 weeks ago 1

It would be nice if the branch structure in the Standard Windows view could be set like in the Log Windows view where SmartGit shows local branches and remote branches in a tree view. Also branches are grouped by paths:

I think the UI would be more consistent if the layout of "Local Files" and "History" tabs would be similar in the Standard Window:

History in the center of the window and commit messages and changed files to right.

Our intention for the Standard window was to make something better than in the other windows without their legacy (you can't change something significantly in Working tree or Log window without frustrating some user). Hence, we do not aim to have the same branch selector in the Standard window as in the Working tree or Log window.
