Overlays and menus

Icon overlay symbols

To identify changed, added, deleted, removed or renamed files, TortoiseSVN provides icons which give visual reference to the state of your files:

	Indicates a fresh checked-out working copy of this file
	Indicates a file has been modified since it was checked-out, and therefore needs commiting
	Indicates a conflict whilst updating files
	Indicates a svn:needs-lock property on the file. I.e. it is read-only. (You need to get a lock before you can edit this file)
	Indicates a locked, but normal file. This symbol reminds you that you should unlock it for others to access it
	Indicates that some files/folders inside a folder are scheduled for deletion, or a file under version control is missing in a folder
	Indicates that a file or folder is scheduled to be added to version control
