I am using Netbeans 7.2.1 with Git versioning for my projects. However, I recently migrated from Windows to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and I can't see the file/folder color differences between modified and unmodified files. That feature helps a lot, especially when checking merging conflicts and you need to quickly isolate and access them from the Projects tab. I don't really understand why this feature doesn't work in the Linux version of the IDE and I thought you guys can help. Thanks, Nicolae
> I can't see the file/folder color differences between modified and unmodified files What differences? Blue icon annotations in the Projects view (these: http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/ide/git.html#viewFileStatus)? Are you sure the files are really modified? Can you run: 1) git status on commandline and report the output 2) Git -> Show Changes and make a screenshot? Also please attach your messages.log: http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqLogMessagesFile

The reference you gave me - "Blue icon annotations in the Projects view" - is exactly what stopped working on Ubuntu. However, I noticed a LOT of files are marked as "Modified" and I find this (considering that my last commit was yesterday) a bit peculiar. Could this be the issue? Thanks in advance Nicolae
Comment on attachment 128997 [details] Screenshot for "Show changes" on the current repo You can notice in the IDE screenshot some features working and others not woring. Working: - The files in the "Show changes" dialog are all blue / Modified - The text editor shows new/modified lines of code (right / left side) Not working: - The "Projects" panel on the left shows no icons or modified files (Blue) - The text editor tabs don't show any colors in the file names, as usual
No idea, it works for me without any problems. Can you make a thread dump (http://wiki.netbeans.org/GenerateThreadDump)? Maybe the request for annotations is blocked by something.
