Add branch name to Visual Studio title
It would be very useful to see the current branch name in the Visual Studio title and therefore in the taskbar too.
I am aware of a "Workspace working info" view but it does not help much to find a proper window quickly when I have opened multiple versions (branches) of one solution.

We built a separate plugin for this purpose. You can download the source code and find the instructions on https://github.com/PlasticSCM/vstitle4plastic

Hi, is there an update on this for a version that is installable with VS 2019 or perhaps a better way to display current branch name inside of VisualStudio?

Hi JakbubH,
Are you aware of any other addin doing something similar? Could you please share it?
The thing is that we tried to implement this one but it seems that changing the VStudio title is not an standard practice at all and requires several "hacks" on our side.
If you can please share some more info and examples we'll be happy to implement it. Otherwise we'll be forced to discard it :-S
