[TSVN] Low priority commit-dialog feature requests

From: Matthew Mastracci <matt_at_aclaro.com>

I've got a couple of feature requests that would make my life slightly
easier during the commit phase of development. I checked the bug list
to make sure these aren't outstanding dupes (though it is possible that
I missed a similar bug):

1. Allow "hiding" of files in the file list. This is similar to
ignoring them, but only lasts for the duration of the commit and makes
no property changes.

2. Show multiple wildcards for filenames with multiple periods. VS.NET
produces a lot of blah.csproj.user files for C# projects. Ideally, I'd
like to see the ignore menu show this for "blah.foo.csproj.user":

*.user
*.csproj.user
*.foo.csproj.user
blah.foo.csproj.user

If this is too messy for most users, perhaps a "More >" submenu could be
added:

*.user
blah.foo.csproj.user
More > *.csproj.user
                         *.foo.csproj.user

3. Re-scan changed files for commit. I've run into cases where I find
problems in my commit that require changing files that were previously
unmodified. If I've entered a commit message already, I'd like to keep
the dialog up in the background, make my additional change and re-scan
to pick up the new changes.

4. Show all selected files as unified diff. Some changes are easier to
visualize as a unified diff (IMHO, of course). I'd like to be able to
generate a large unified diff from all of the changes that are selected,
rather than just single-file unified diffs. Perhaps this could be added
to the context menu when you hilite multiple files in the commit dialog.

Matt.
