What do the arrows mean in the IDEA git log screen?


After a very tricky merge we now have to enter commit messages on merge and I noticed the down/up arrows in the git/log screen for IDEA.

I think it is "disconnected" but how do I reconnect it with the remote branch?

Solution

  • Turns out the arrow is just a collapse feature! I feel silly now, but I couldn't find anything on this.

    It's just a side effect from merging a lot of remotes into a single repo.
