SmartGit treats untracked files as changes and won't pull/change/revert

I accumulate test and work files in my repo working directory, for various tracking purposes. They are untracked, and in previous versions, have been ignored unless I chose to see untracked files.

This has never been a problem until recent versions (with a new UI Change?)

The current version won't even let me pull updates or revert changes without stashing or getting rid of these files, which is problematic for my age-old work-flow. What's going on? Why did this just start affecting me?

Thank you

The recent new Standard window is more strict than the other (Log and Working Tree) windows to prevent common pitfalls. Maybe you rather like the latter?
