Description Dan Kolar 2008-05-23 10:39:18 UTC 
1) When some change is made in project, plugin see it only if accodring file/folder is opened in Project/File view. So
invoking Mercurial -> Commit list only files, which have been viewed.
2) Because plugin doesn't scan project for chnages, it does show even deleted files, and this can't be resolved even by
closing/opening the project, only by restart by IDE (and because no files are opened yet, we get the #1 case)
Comment 1 Padraig Obriain 2008-05-23 10:52:29 UTC 
Please give a specific test case.

I am not sure I understand the description.
Comment 2 Padraig Obriain 2008-05-26 10:30:16 UTC 
Are you referring to changes made outside the IDE?
Comment 3 Dan Kolar 2008-05-26 10:45:40 UTC 
Yes, but IDE support for CVS/SVN scan project folders, when you use commit on project. Even if file is changed, or
deleted outside of IDE, CVS/SVN support changes commit list appropriately, but Mercurial support doesn't.
Comment 4 Padraig Obriain 2008-05-26 14:38:18 UTC 
See http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=116104 for corresponding work for Subversion.

Comment 6 John Rice 2008-05-27 14:33:34 UTC 
This will have a significant performance impact when you go to do a commit against a repository with a large number of
changes made outside of the IDE, but there is nothing we can do about it.
Comment 7 Dan Kolar 2008-05-29 12:17:48 UTC 
Well, IDE commit isn't even able to notice file was deleted from project using IDE, only after restart of IDE...

Comment 9 Tomas Stupka 2008-06-20 15:34:02 UTC 
- applied the patch provided by padraig - 4a40bf7f5977 - should solve the originally reported problem with not recognized external changes.

can't reproduce. could you please elaborate? if possible in a separate issue as this seems to be a different problem. thanks

the solution indeed has impact also on situation where a deep status refresh isn't needed. We should reconsider a easy way to switch it off - filed a new 
issue to cover it - #137826
