      Hi,

      Thanks for SourceTree, which we really appreciate here. Regarding the lastest update for Mac, many things including the side-by-side binary view are great, but we'd like to share a few comments and suggestions.

      1. Unifying staged and unstaged files into a single scrollable area hampers productivity for my team.

      2. Clicking a checkbox to MOVE files from one area to the other is a regression compared to the previous drag (=MOVE) & drop paradigm that made previous versions of SourceTree the best git experience.

      3. Not making "Use staging area" selected by default after update seems a strange choice to me.

      4. When "Use staging area" is not selected, staging either lines or hunks checks the "Use staging area" and displays a git error.

      5. Losing the separate file and path columns is a real pain...

      6. "Stage file" and "Add to index" perform the same action and should probably share the same terminology.

      Thanks for your time.

      Regards,

      Boris Conforty

      PS: please check the unstaging process. Most of the time, it hangs.
