Description misterm 2013-06-03 20:42:43 UTC 
Searching for commits in a single branch is one of the most useful search operations, yet it is not supported by the IDE.

Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20130528-c0ed67b06598)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_07
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.3-b01
Comment 1 Ondrej Vrabec 2013-06-04 08:30:46 UTC 
Are you sure? I thought it worked quite reliably. Simply entering "branch" (a branch's name) into the To field in the criteria searches only commits being part of the branch - which is an equivalent of searching a branch as far as i understand git.
Please be more specific, describe the difference to what i wrote above and suggest a solution.
Comment 2 misterm 2013-06-27 13:15:30 UTC 
Ok, it is there but it completely unintuitive. Adding a specific field is one idea, changing the label to To/Branch is another.
Comment 3 Ondrej Vrabec 2013-06-27 14:16:23 UTC 
I do not mind modifying the label and its tooltip.

Verified in 201307011244 (label and tooltip changed, simple and even advanced branchnames like master~5 or HEAD^^ worked)
