I don't think you can add desciptions to files, though you can add notes to commits:
http://alblue.bandlem.com/2011/11/git-tip-of-week-git-notes.html You have a pretty specific work-flow, I don't think any tool is going to do this out of the box, much less have IDE integration, but using git notes might help, and you could use them as basis for some custom tooling. I have to ask, why not add structured comments in your files? Then add some scripts to list the 1234.sql filename, along with the '% NAME: readable-name.sql' comment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
