Created attachment 258701 [details] Screenshot of the dialog with a number of repositories I have a number of Git repositories open in a few different Eclipse workspaces and I frequently add/remove repositories as with Git usually repositories are smaller. However when I use Synchronize View for Git repositories, I have to manually select the "destination" for each repository each time I have a new Git repository that I would like to have watched in the Synchronize view. The "HEAD" is not preselected and it does not remember the previous destination. See also the attached screenshot. Possible solutions: 1. Remember the previous "destination" 2. Or provide a way to set the same "destination" for all repositories 3. Or provide a way to "add" a new git repository to a Git synchronization 1. and 3. would work best for me.
Another option: 4. When adding new projects that use Git (i.e. when Team->Share-Git is performed), add the project to the current synchronization, similar to what Subclipse is doing
Looks useful to improve this, maybe you want to contribute any of the proposed improvements ? (I don't use synchronize at all so I won't work on improving it).
Created attachment 258753 [details] Patch which adds a button "Select current branch" to the synchronize view I went with the simplest possible solution (let's call it number 5), namely to add a button "Select current branch" which will populate the UI with the current branch for any repository where no destination is set yet
