      With the new UI, it is difficult to manage multiple clones of a git repo that reside on my computer. And manage clones of several web-clones of a base repo together with that base repo.  All of these collapse down to the repo name, without any differentiation. I have to look at the file changes tab to find out what local directory path the tab references.

      It would be fantastic if the repo tab names were the names of the remote repo and there was a hover-over that showed the full URL for that repo and the full local path of the clone on my computer.

      It would be even better if there were support for me to select from among a set of remote repos and/or local clones with that name. 

      This inverts the folder-structure of the left pane of the 1.x version that I had been using to manage all of my different clones. Allowing me to work with the "foo" project, then select whether I want to work in the local clone based off of my private web clone of that project, the base public project, or a clone of some other clone, etc.
