Eclipses git support: right click on a file, show history, navigate between classes, notice eclipse hanging every time you switch between classes because it’s spending unreasonable amounts of time loading the git history while blocking the main thread every time with no caching whatsoever

Facepalm

I run into thousands of moronic things like that on an average work week

I use Eclipse with Subversion as the VCS. With Subversion you can disable to automatic History tab update on selection change (ie unlink from Editor). Can you not do the same with the Git functionality?

Never had that problem. idea changesets: index no deltas on file or all deltas, but can't index 1 delta. All or nothing. Facepalm.

Really? I hate Eclipse git "support" with a passion. I don't want my IDE to go anywhere near my version control. I'll take care of that myself, thankyouverymuch. The fact that Eclipse makes it nearly impossible to disable that git "support" downright angers me.

Close the git perspective? Right-click project, team -> disconnect perhaps?

Honestly, I'm curious. It's never occurred to me that having it there, even if you don't use it, could be problematic. What is it touching that bothers you so much? It's not like it's going to jump in your folder and start committing stuff at random.

Impossible? You just go to the Team menu and choose "Disconnect" or am I missing something?

Yes. That's incompatible with my workflow. Projects are generated on the fly, each new project is automatically connected even if I don't want it to be. Having to manually disconnect each project is a pain. I just want a big "disable this plugin" button.

But SourceTree is better than both.

Haven't used SourceTree. That may be true, but I prefer having all my tools in one place, and eGit is quite good. Besides, eGit has Eclipse Mylyn integration, which is another killer feature Idea doesn't have.
