Thanks voting.  I agree with you that using existing icons is
advantage of Design 1.
However, these icons have incongruous sizes ("+" is too small, "X" is too big):

I suppose these icons need improvement.  Thought?

And I don't know Design 1 icons use Tango palette.  Nice pointing.
I said I prefer Design 2, but it's just personal liking (sorry Sune).
For mostly TortoiseHg users (incl. color blind users), I may choose Design 1.

This is still experimental feature.  Feel free to open the discussion for this.
Thanks for all suggestions!  :)
