favourite branches #1857

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Given project with a long branches list like 
https://github.com/project-jedi/jvcl/branches, working with feature branches 
and merging there and back may easily become tedious. Especially when a branch 
only created for an hour to fix small bug and make pull request upstream.

Then add there few other remote repositories like upstream and your own remote 
one, and list of branches to MERGE from is even larger.

Can there be made a shorter list of user-selected "favourite" branches with 
master included by default and user-added currently active feature branch ?

Alternatively there may be a list of branches always starting with master and 
listing all other branches in a descending recent activity order - but that 
would really ask "what is activity". If i used CLI git to pull and merge from a 
remote repo&branch - how can TGit GUi learn of the fact ? So perhaps manual 
control is more feasible here.

I'm thinking if we should change our revision selection boxes to something like 
the Eclipse git has (in short: a tree based view)... See attached picture.

This way we could easily have favourite branches or "recently used" ones

Open a Browse references dialog for selecting?

Giving a git reference a label which is something like gmail's label.
Then, references can be showed with group, i.e. favorite/recently used/<user 
defined>.
The filter could be "label: xxx".
