There's no support for committing through Eclipse yet, let alone
doing things like creating new branches or switching branches.
But Robin has done a lot of work on the status and history viewing
tools, to the point that you can use the QuickDiff feature in
Eclipse to see which parts of a file you have recently modified
(but not committed), which files/directories are modified in the
Navigator, and view the "git shortlog" for the currently selected
file/directory.

I would say its *very* early alpha. It could cause your Eclipse
workbench to run out of memory, and crash, especially on large
projects. It also doesn't have that many features yet. ;-)
