Description Christoph Laeubrich CLA 2018-06-13 12:34:49 EDT 
It would be cool if (beside Workingset and Projects) it would be possible to group by the SCM location e.g. in SVN via label and GIT via the location label.
It could use the information that is already displayed next to a project when it is shared.
Comment 1 Dani Megert CLA 2018-06-18 11:58:08 EDT 
This will most likely not happen as there is no API the JDT could use.
Comment 2 Christoph Laeubrich CLA 2018-06-18 13:16:35 EDT 
Do you know how is the SCM location displayed next to the project? Can't this reused for this purpose?

Those are decorations provided by the specific SCM.

What might work is to have SCM working sets per location. You could try to provide this yourself using the 'org.eclipse.ui.workingSets' extension point.
