Badge support

[PeterShaws]

It would be nice not to lose the information from the Activity Bar badges. One possible implementation could look like the mockup below:

Would that be feasible?

[PeterShaws]

I just saw the wontfix on issue #37. Is that still the case?

If you set activitusbar.showSourceControlCounter to true, it should show a number for the SCM view, but the others are not possible to do.

[PeterShaws]

That's unfortunate. I did find and enable that option, but the counter didn't appear, even after reloading the window.

[Gruntfuggly]

Could you have look in the developer tool console (Help->Toggle Developer Tools) and see if there are any errors present?

[PeterShaws]

Indeed there are:

log.ts:313   ERR [Extension Host] The system cannot find the path specified.
console.ts:137 [Extension Host] The system cannot find the path specified.
localProcessExtensionHost.ts:294 Extension Host
localProcessExtensionHost.ts:295 The system cannot find the path specified.

[Gruntfuggly]

Hmm. Unfortunately that doesn't give me much to go on - was there anything else?

[PeterShaws]

Yeah, I thought the same, but I can't make heads or tails of the trace for the ExtensionHost error:

[Extension Host] The system cannot find the path specified.

Hey, I'm having the same problem.

The SCM badge in Linux works perfectly, but in Windows, it doesn't; In the Developer Tools it throws the error

The system cannot find the path specified.

I think the problem could be in the folder.uri.fsPath

activitusbar/extension.js

Line 420 in 3927c24

var gitFolder = childProcess.execSync( 'git -C ' + folder.uri.fsPath + ' rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null' ).toString();

I'm not seeing the "SCM changes" badge either, this is on macOS Ventura, also don't see any errors in the developer console. Here are my settings:

    "activitusbar.combineWorkspaceSettings": true,
    "activitusbar.searchViewInPanel": false,
    "activitusbar.showSourceControlCounter": true,
    "activitusbar.views": [
        {
            "name": "explorer",
            "codicon": "explorer-view-icon"
        },
        {
            "name": "search",
            "codicon": "search-view-icon"
        },
        {
            "name": "pr:github",
            "codicon": "github"
        },
        {
            "name": "scm",
            "codicon": "source-control-view-icon"
        },
        {
            "name": "debug",
            "codicon": "run-view-icon"
        },
        {
            "name": "github.codespaces.explorer",
            "codicon": "remote-explorer"
        },
        {
            "name": "gitlens.views.home",
            "codicon": "git-merge"
        },
        {
            "name": "extensions",
            "codicon": "extensions-view-icon"
        },
        {
            "codicon": "kebab-vertical"
        }
    ],

I'd also like to see this as the current profile name is missing from the settings icon.
