For people working on multiple things at the same time within the same project it would be a big benefit to see which instance of the cloned repo is pointed at which branch.

Ideal experience would also have the information about whether it's dirty or not.

Personally I tend to have 3+ clones of the same repository I rotate for different work (e.g. I have one longer going thing and then bunch of smaller bug fixes and or features and then a clone for helping people I can safely nuke any and all changes on anytime).

Thank you.

Seems reasonable, but how many people have a bunch of copies of the same repo?

The thing is, the workflow just parses a bunch of filepaths when updating its list of repos. Calling git or parsing config files would make the refresh way slower. Especially getting dirty status.

So I think that any such feature would have to be optional.
