The Repositories View in SmartGit
The Repositories View shows a list of repositories known to SmartGit on the local computer, allowing you to open an existing repository, and shows you which repository(ies) are currently open by a bold highlight.
Please also refer to Working with Repositories for general Repository operations.
SmartGit remembers repositories that you’ve previously opened and any GUI-related settings applied to each repository. To open a repository, double-click it. If the repository is already is open in another window, SmartGit will focus on that window. If the current window executes commands or Open in New Window has been selected from the repository’s context menu, the repository will open in a new window. To open multiple repositories simultaneously, select and highlight each repository (e.g., using Ctrl/Cmd
+ click) and choose Open from the context menu.
Repositories can be arranged in groups. Right-click on the repositories and select the target group or New Group from the Move To submenu. Alternatively, you can use drag-and-drop onto the target group or a repository inside the target group (see autoscroll).
Repositories can be marked as favorites using the Mark as Favorite (Unmark as Favorite) option. Favorite repositories are indicated with an asterisk (*) after the name and are sorted before non-favorite repositories. Additionally, favorite repositories will receive background refresh operations.
