If I don't forget, I will update the documentation on how to modify the theme using a properties file. This will also allow to modify the toolbar's background color.

Not everything is possible to change. The toolbar foreground color can't be changed at the moment on Windows (see SWT bug above) - hence I rather keep it as is. The tree triangles can't be changed, too, the table headers and scrollbars, too. The Changes view coloring you can change in the preferences. It is configurable by the user and hence not affected by the theme.

This feature works already fine. If you really have 2 or more processes of SmartGit hanging around, please conttact the support (see Help menu).

SmartGit already should connect to already running instance. If not, I consider it a bug.

Local | Toggle 'Assume-Unchanged' is your friend.

This is an intentional change, because black text on dark-gray background is really hard to read and looks quite buggy.

What do you think about the latest build 9061?

Please provide two screenshots (from v8 and v7) illustrating the problem. Thanks in advance.

- compare right ruler colors : no change ?

These colors can be changed in the preferences - they are from the editor theme.

A lot of other issues I have fixed in the latest build 9055. Please vote for following SWT bugs:

• Toolbar ignores foreground color - we keep it as is
• Tree: selection color hard to read - we've found a workaround
• Colors of table headers can't be changed
• Disabled trees and tables ignore set background color - we simply don't disable trees and tables any more to work around
• Disabled checkboxes and radio buttons hard/impossible to read if disabled - we've changed the background color slightly
• Checkboxes and radio buttons with incorrect focus border - fixed
• TabFolder does not allow changing background or foreground color
• Combobox does not allow changing background or foreground color
