Ship more overlay icon sets as TortoiseSVN does

By trejderow... on October 24, 2013 18:55 (imported from Google Code)


Strangest issue I ever run into...

I had 1.8.4.0 on both home and office computers. I have updated both computers to 1.8.6.0. Work (office) computer went without any problems. Home computer started to show some strange or missing icons after update.

I quickly investigated, that there are many icons sets missing in Icon Overlays > Icon Set, after update to 1.8.6.0. Including, my bellowed "MufWin7".

On my office computer I have like many (more than ten) icons sets and I had as many on every version of TortoiseGit ever since. The same on home computer up to 1.8.4.0. After upgrate to 1.8.6.0 I have only five of them: CVSClassic, Modern, Straight, Subclipse and XPStyle.

I have no idea, what went wrong, but an my usual reaction in such cases is an attempt to fix it. First I went with installer's Repair option. No effect. Then I uninstalled TortoiseGit completely, restarted computer and installed it freshly new again, using file from "Downloads Page". No effect.

That actually killed me. If full re-install doesn't help, then what can help. I would assume that you simply removed this icons set, if not for the fact that I have 1.8.6.0 installed at office and it has MufWin7.

The only odd thing I noticed was, that during full install of TortoiseGit (after full uninstall) there was no usual message box about need of killing Explorer and request to restart computer after installation.

This is truly the oddest issue I run into. What else can I do to get my MufWin7 icon overlays back in TortoiseGit?

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
