    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      By default, Sourcetree 3.4.9 displays a "Commit" column which contains the short-form changeset ID, like "7f8583abaa83". Mercurial also assigns changesets a number (integer) such as "3059". This is displayed in commit details, but there appears to be no way to display these numbers in the table, even though Sourcetree for Macintosh reportedly allows that following SRCTREE-1572.

      TortoiseHg displays a column for that number. I recommend to allow displaying both properties simultaneously, like TortoiseHg, rather than Sourcetree for Macintosh.

            Changesets number (integer) is how we, humans can identify a version easily. We also include this number in our product's version number as last digits. Makes it easy to identify with the proper revision.

            Using Mac, we don't have any issues, since the changesets is visible. However, using Sourcetree on Windows, it is a big problem, since we cannot see that number. When a developer asking which version you have, you can simply say "3098" but on windows, we should say "c9cf0d4da8bf".... this foricing us to use TortoiseHG or other tools instead of Sourcetree!

            This features was part of the tool, it was visible for years. We are not asking more, but show the changesets OR add a way to customize the views and optionally enable/disable commit, changesets, dates etc.. basically the same way it is working on OSX version.

            Thanks!
