Just tested, this is working great indeed ! Event if I pull from another branch. Here is what I get :

Background operations doesn't seem to trigger this red label though...

When was this branch color feature added ? I face the problem many times and it never occured to me "orphan" branches changed colors ? And I use last build since quite some time now...

Here is what you're getting in SmartGit, one file with a corresponding diff window on the whole file :

And here is what is displayed in SourceTree, same commit : one little diff per hunk modified. Very convenient to see all modifications made to a file very quickly, and plus it allows very easily to stage hunk by hunk (which is possible in SmartGit but in my opinion far too complex, and lacks A LOT clarity - but that is a different subject) :

Can the branches "attached" to a commit be displayed when hovering the commit node ? Or even the whole commit line ?

Each developper might have its context...

For me, the git client is here to help, the main work happens in my IDE. So I expect the diff tool in SmartGit to see quickly differences, not display the whole code...

Ok, exactly same syntax as the [giflow*] tags in .git/config :)

So for exemple :

[gitflow "branch"]
 master = master
 develop = develop
[gitflow "prefix"]
 feature = feature/
 release = release/
 hotfix = hotfix/
 versiontag = 
 support = support/

I would recommend updating the doc to reflect this !

Ha thanks ! But what is the syntax of this .gitflow file ?

Maybe do the same as about:config in Firefox ?

What is the effect of this option ? Can't find it in the online documentation...

You can use the journal view to see what commit are pending on the remote repo...

Some options can be changed for Smartgit to update more frequently the view, the number of commits displayed, etc :
