TortoiseGit modified sign (icon overlay) is not updating

Question

I have made a small change in some code but TortoiseGit shows it as modified (red exclamation sign) although I have committed, pulled, pushed, but it stays. What should I do her

Answer 1

The thing that solved this issue for us was that we had moved our Git repos to a mapped network drive, thus changing the drive letter.

It seems that TortoiseGit needs to be set to monitor network drives - it is not the default behaviour.

So to solve this issue you would:

• Right click a repo folder
• Choose "TortoiseGit"
• Choose "Settings"
• Choose "Icon Overlays"
• Tick "Network drives"

Job done.
