As soon as I enable the git SCCP Visual Studio will no longer be usable at all on big projects.
I have a project with ~2000 files and a very huge directory structure ( > 10,000 directories up to depth 17 ).

The gitextensions will constantly scan the whole directory tree, leaving VS2010 completely frozen (not responding) for up to 2 minutes.
Disabling the SCCP will fix this issue.

How about adding an option not to scan the directorytree constanly but onrequest / every hour or such?
