My fork of the TM1 "ProjectPlus" bundle[1] shows some additional SCM states (for git at least) that I believe are quite useful. Best explained with a screen shot:

Additional info shown:

- Repository roots (the folders saying "git")

- Local repository ahead of upstream repository (the black bar behind "git" in the C-Tools folder)

- Folders reflect if they (or a subfolder) contain any files with uncommitted changes (purple folders)

- Untracked files (the orangish "UntrackedFile.h")

- Ignored files (the white "SVNVersion.h")

This helps me greatly to remember where I was, to be more diligent wrt source control etc.

Thanks

Gerd
