No longer get multiple icons

[Victor A. Wagner Jr.]

I've been using CVS and then when Subversion was doing well I
switched.....apparently from showing the log from a few things, I pretty
much was switched over in 2007.  I've enjoyed using it until the most
recent versions....both Subversion and Windows10. someplace along the
line, I quit getting icons with the green circle and white checkmark on
them if the "folder" was all up to date.  So now, I have to select each
and do a commit to find out if it's actually up to date.  This is time
consuming as I have around 35 different repositories.  I don't recall
reading about the "feature" being removed as I was doing the updated to
Subversion, then again it certainly COULD be Windows10 <shrug>.  It
would be nice to have the screen identifying the repositories that need
to be committed.

Hi Victor,

It sounds like you might be using TortoiseSVN. Most likely you'll get a
better answer asking people familiar with that project. This email list is
specifically for the core SVN functionality, not the GUI clients.

Indeed, the TortoiseSVN has a separate mailing list:
https://tortoisesvn.net/community.html

I would still like to add that there should be no need to try to commit
a file in order to figure out if the file has uncommitted changes.
In the absence of overlay icons (which I cannot explain, I'm afraid),
the 'Check for modifications' dialog may be used instead. This dialog
can be chosen from the menu after right-clicking anywhere in a directory
window: https://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-wcstatus.html#tsvn-dug-wcstatus-2

That's a Windows limitation. Only 10 icons are used, that are defined by
other programs.
E.g. Dropbox always tries to place its icons on the top of the list, so
icons from other programs like TortoiseSVN are completly or partly
ignored.
