Menu
I've recently moved from Eclipse to IntelliJ. A challenge as I'm a keyboard shortcut junkie, but that isn't what I'm here about.
I miss having the git branch name shown in the package/project view.
Does anyone know of a way to configure IntelliJ to display what git branch the project is in, so I don't have to keep switching back to the terminal and checking.
Thanks.

To create remote Git branch in IntelliJ idea one should: Commit and push all your changes first. Create local branch by going to VCS -> Git -> Branches -> New Branch. You can see your local and remote branches in this menu too, as well as current active branch.
As of IntelliJ 11 the current Git branch is displayed in the bottom right corner of the status bar. Moreover, clicking on the branch name displays a nice popup with all available branches, and you can invoke some actions on them.
To enable status bar follow the below steps :
View --> Appearance --> Status Bar [and click to enable/disable]
