So my understanding of the two views are: Project View - is project type specific with enhancements specific to a given project, allowing customized behavior based on the project type (i.e., Maven project allows maven dependency functionality, Java project allow "package based views", etc.) which may hide or arrange things in such a way as to simplify things for a given project type File View - provides a basic show the raw files within a given folder/project without any customizations, so it requires drilling down to specific folders to find a specific file instead of a "package" view, it shows all files (i.e., show a pom.xml where it's stored, .gitignore, etc.) Favorites View - (not included in the original context but also helpful) identifies specific folders of interests; so specific project, sub-projects or sub-folders can be added and usable to navigate towards So I think there are different use cases for each but once the usages is more familiar, I think it's good the way it is. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
