| Sep 1, 2011 at 6:28 | comment | added | Olgaarsh | This is a good option, yet any such graphical distinction requires text anyway, as this is a very specific difference, which has no commonly associated graphical appearance (such as grey for disabled). So I decided to go with using a different icon on the 'commit' button for such actions, and the explanation will appear on the button tooltip. | |
