I am opening this bug for tracking git status and compare editor design discussion after M6. We still need to open separate bugs to track details on different features/areas but this will be an area for ideas. Currently I am thinking about the following new stuff. 1. Add more git related features in status page (not to mention amend , checkout , etc) 2. Use canvas curve instead of gap in the side by side viewer 3. enhance the side by side viewer as merge editor. Please add your comments .
Here's a hard one: enable syntax highlighting and regular edit commands in the merge editor.

(In reply to comment #0) > I am opening this bug for tracking git status and compare editor design > discussion after M6. I would like to discuss Git UI in general. I think we need to add at least two other views for Git. One for Git Repositories (Bug 338226) and another one for Git Log (Bug 334213). Moreover I would like to discuss what kind of Git label/command decoration should be visible in the navigator.
I've opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=340039 to track the side by side editor design. I am not quite sure if we should still use the gaped-model for compare editor but I started to think about it. As an end user I would prefer to using an editor without gap (like we did in desktop) so that I don't get confused by the gap lines when I am editing.
(In reply to comment #1) > Here's a hard one: enable syntax highlighting and regular edit commands in the > merge editor. Created https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=341141 for a better solution but now I will work this around.
All the features in M7 is done : 1.Writable compare editor. 2.graphical comparing match 3.Savable and undoable left side editor. 4.marking conflicting file and show conflict area inside editor(need to improve to 3-way compare in M8. I am closing this bug.
