Synchronization has now gotten much faster, particularly when using the Commits model. This makes it far more useful than it was before. Try it again if you haven't for awhile.
To be more useful still, it would be really nice if the right-click menu for the commits listed in this view included an 'Open in Commit Viewer' operation, which would of course open the selected commits in Commit views.
Probably all the right-click operations on commits listed in History should eventually be accessible from commits listed in the Synchronization, but 'open' is a good start.

Re: Workspace model v Commits model in advanced synchronization, every one here wants to work work commits in this context. The feeling is that Git is fundamentally commit-centric at the inter-reference comparison level, and file-centric at the index/working-tree comparison level.
I would have thought that in the case of tracking or otherwise closely related branches it should also be faster to work with commits, since the common ancestor should be relatively close by. Once you have the common ancestor, surely it's very fast to walk the di-graph from there to the destination reference?
I could see how the commit model could be slower for references that are not closely related. I rarely have any reason to do that though.
