Tortoise SVN icon overlays not showing in shared mapped network drive folder


My Tortoise SVN icons are showing up properly in folders on my local C:\ drive. However, folders I have stored on a mapped drive are not showing any icon overlays. I can still check-out, update, etc. on the map drive so it looks like the SVN functionality is working correctly but the icon overlays are not there.

Any suggestions?


Solution

  • Here is the answer found on TortoiseSVN FAQ :

    Go to the Settings -> Look and Feel -> Icon Overlays and check the drive types for which you want to see overlay icons. Be aware that enabling overlays for network drives will slow down not only TortoiseSVN but the whole system
