Show file status

By default, Qt Creator displays the file status in the Projects, File System, and Open Documents views. Changed files are shown with different colors. The status is refreshed automatically every 10 seconds.

To customize how often the file status is updated:

  1. Go to Preferences > Version Control > General.
  2. Ensure Show VCS file status with refresh interval is selected.
  3. Set the interval (in seconds) at which Qt Creator requests file status updates from Git.

Show git status

To view the status of the repository in Version Control, go to Tools > Git > Local Repository and select Status.

To include untracked files, select Status (Include All Untracked).
