What does this icon mean in Eclipse?

Question

I am using the git plugin for Eclipse. Some of my files are marked with a brown asterisk. What does it mean? Where can I find documentation for what the rest of the git icons mean in Eclipse?

Answer 1

I'm not familiar with git, but when using svn with Eclipse, the white star on the brown square means you have made changes to the file since the last time you updated it. The gold cylinder, on the other hand, means you have not made changes so the local file is identical to the repository version. So it must mean something that is roughly equivalent to that in git.
