    add better support for svn:externals under review

    Two things from the top of my head around svn:externals that I think would be useful
    1. Some GUI to easily add external folder (like project already being part of another solution in shared repository) to solution.
    2. Some visual indication that project is an external reference.
    3. Some indicatio... more

    Keep update window open after update complete under review

    I'd like it if the update (get latest version) window either stayed open after the update had completed, or there was an option to allow this. My reasoning is that information about what changes the update has performed are displayed in the window, along with the revision you are updating to, bu... more

    The update window is a modal dialog. If we were to keep this open, there's no way to use Visual Studio without closing it.
    We will need to add another way to take a look at recent changed made by others by either caching the updated files list, or the before/after revision and showing the log messages between the two.

    Add hooks for controls in commit window (ie for bug tracker)

    Add ability for 3rd party UI integration with commit window. For example a bug tracking system night want to put a list of open issues, so that developer while commiting may change status of tasks.

    Such third party UI components would have to be separate Visual Studio packages. The Visual Studio license prohibits us to create our own plug-in infrastructure next to the existing Visual Studio extensibility.
    We have some plans to connect with third party bugtrackers at the data (non-UI) level, as we assume that would be safe.

    ibugtraqprovider under review

    I'm not sure if we are allowed to use precisely this interface as the Visual Studio SDK license explicitly denies us the right to load our own addins. Defining our own api is on our TODO list. (But eventually addins would have to be VS add-ins or Visual Studio packages on their own (other loading technology) or loaded in an external processes)

    Double-click in Show pending changes should Diff, not Open planned

    Doube click in Show pending changes currently takes me to the editor. I would like to Compare against the SVN revision instead, because:

    - I am using Show pending changes to review my commits. When doing this, I am interested in differences.
    - this is how it works in VSS VS integration

    We plan to make this a user option, defaulting to diff.

    (What the default will be is still under discussion as TFS seems to default to open.. We will probably add Ctrl+Doubleclick for the other option)

    Ctrl+DoubleClick is diff in the daily builds now.

    let me have my green check icons back.

    Could you make "color blind mode" an optional setting? Most of the visual studio icons have blue in them so the new blue check-marks blend right in making it worse for 90% of users.

    The fact that the icons 'blend in' is by design.

    These files are the files that *don't need attention*. You don't want to commit, diff, check unmodified files, do you?

    Usually you want to perform operations on files that are somehow changed/new since the last checkout and calling attention to the say 10k files that didn't change doesn't help.

    I agree that changing a color doesn't help.. but after a day you don't miss the green icons any more.

    History Viewer: Implement more common commands started

    Many commands are already available on the changed files list. We are working on the issues to also make them available on the top list (that doesn't have a single file selection)

    Add the commit/update item in the popup menu. started

    The commit/update item in the popup menu.Like VSS.

    Popup menu? You probably mean a context-menu somewhere, but on which control is the main question...

    [Reporter answered: I mean when right-click on the Text Editor.]

    Current status: This will be implemented with some extra UI updates to the commit dialog. (You will get into the commit editor of the project containing the file with the current file checked and other changes unchecked)

    Rename with automatic locking

    we work with svn:needs-lock
    now we want to use the VisualStudio rename affecting unlocked files.
    they should be locked automatically in the backgroud

    It looks like the current behavior is that the file is renamed and then locked in its new location.

    If I understand your question correctly, you ask that we lock it in its old location without lock message?

    svn:externals/nested dirs better grouping and msg reuse

    I would like to see a better grouping of changes to different repository paths in the pending changes dialog. E.g. an empty line between files/file groups from different repository locations.
    Also i would like to reuse former commit messages and be able to commit to several repository locations i... more

    Hi, this interface was designed to create multiple suggestions as multiple items (so they can all collect votes).

    When you right click on the PC-Window header you can choose different columns to sort and group on. I think you are asking for group by Working Copy here.

    If you create multiple items I can close this suggestion for you.

    Change the color of the color bar in Visual Studio

    VS has the built-in behaviour of changing the colour bar (just to the left of the code) that tracks the change status of the code (yellow for unsaved code modification, green for code changed and saved this session).

    VisualSVN makes a change to the colours of this colour bar, depending on the s... more

    Move progress dialog to background if possible

    When it's legal to do so, enable a button on the progress dialog to move from a modal progress to a mode-less way of notifying progress.

    need self-closing commit dialog under review

    The commit dialog or the other dialogs can be closed by itself.

    The commit dialog closes when you hit the OK/Cancel button. The Pending Changes window stays open after commit.

    What's the use-case here, what dialog needs to stay open?

    In TortoiseSVN I can shoose to ignore whitespace or whitespace changes for Blame. I cannot find any such option for AnkhSVN annotate.
