I have several java projects checked out from svn which I view through eclipse (Version: Kepler Service Release 2 Build id: 20140224-0627). The svn information is displayed to the right of the project name (and alongside each individual file).
Some projects also have a number in brackets alongside (to the right of) the svn information (and so do some files within that project - the number beside the project being the sum of those beside the individual files)
Intuitively I want to say the numbers represent server side changes that I need to bring down to my local workspace but they don't change or disappear if I do an svn update.
Does anyone know what they mean?
It may not be SVN information, any plugins can add a 'label decoration'.
Look in 'Preferences > General > Appearance > Label Decorations' to see the enabled decorations.
Look in 'Preferences > Team > SVN > Label Decorations' to see the exact format of SVN label decorations.
