'VS Extension: Git branch change event?
Is there an event available to extensions that fires when the current branch changes? I need to retrieve data from GitHub any time this happens.
Solution 1:[1]
Solved: I set up a FileSystemWatcher on %projectroot%.git\HEAD that handles the Created event, since Git deletes and recreates on branch change. Hot tip: set EnableRaisingEvents AFTER the object is instantiated with the path parameter. Otherwise you'll get an InvalidOperationException.
