Description Robert Varga CLA 2009-05-06 05:28:01 EDT 
I am not sure if this is a Core or a UI-related request, I marked core.

It would be a very-very useful feature if in the commit dialog at committing to a version control system JDT would warn me if committing the file-set currently selected for committing would cause a compile error due to the following causes:

- the to-be-committed source files are referencing classes which are not under version control or they are newly added to version control and this adding is not marked to be committed

- some source files were to be deleted from version control and the deletion of not all of them is committed to version control (this can cause false positives but it could warn about the case of deleting a dependency with not deleting the dependent places)

In both cases the warning dialog should contain the list of such files with check-boxes and the possibility to add the appropriate change (deletion or addition) of the checked files to the to-be-committed file-set

Best regards,

Robert
