Easily separate conflicted from modified files in VC comparisons
Last modified: 2017-12-13 19:02:04 UTC
We use meld to go through a list of CVS merge conflicts to resolve them. However, it can be very difficult to see the "conflict" files in large projects as there are a large number of "modified" files. It would be very nice if we could filter out the files by CVS status (the "Modified" filter shows both modified and conflicting), or to change the sort order to allow sorting by the Status column, or even adding Status to the type-ahead search.

Exposing all of the possible VC statuses as filters won't work; there's just too many of them. I can think of two possibilities: either add a "Conflict" filter (this would be redundant with modified, or we'd have to change the long-standing meaning of modified) or just provide the sorting that you mention. The sorting is only a partial solution, but it ameliorates the problem.
