The Eclipse-neon's inbuilt git plugin repository view was showing the last commit of my current local branch. Like so:
But it stopped showing the last commit all of a sudden:
I didn't make any changes at git preferences level or at the project level and my local develop branch is not detached.
And I couldn't find any setting in the Eclipse preferences which will turn on this.
Any help is appreciated.
Apparently there is a button in the repository view to enable/disable this, which I obviously oversaw it.
