My TortoiseHg Windows explorer overlay icons are often in the wrong state for unknown reasons. In order to fix this I need to update icons on the folder, which I cant seem to do for multiple folders at once.
This is annoying as I am often working on a large number of projects at once and would like to be able to rely on TortoiseHg to help me figure out which projects need commits.
Does anyone else see the same issues? Has anyone figured anything out to eliminate or alleviate the problem?
I usually keep a command-line open at repository root to do a quick hg st or even better thg stat to get visual overview on what needs to be committed, if there's any. In addition thg commit allows you to cherry pick what you want to commit and see their diffs on the fly. Relying on icons and browsing folders one by one is cumbersome and prone to human errors.
