Don't know if that was right, did not receive feedback yet, but it's only been 2 days with Eclipsecon wrapping up on friday. If you keep a seperate changeset in which you activate your work and split up the changesets in manageable pieces it's easier for others to review your work and comment on it. Love to see your work though. Having the sync view available for git would be a major plus. I proposed something simpler on the wiki: a 'pending changes' window. But if you have the complete sync view that's wonderful. my 2 cents :-) Ferry
