File status indicator showing that the server copy of a local file has been modified relative to the org copy
This is an offshoot of issue #151. It would be helpful to show a visual indicator when the server copy of a local metadata file has been modified since the local copy was last retrieved or successfully deployed, whichever is more recent. Used in conjunction with issue #155, this would allow the user to know which files require additional inspection before deployment to ensure that collaborative changes are merged properly.

I'd add a note that this would be especially useful for resource bundles!

+1 I think this is quite important.

reporter I'm definitely planning to do this for SFDX projects using
force:source:status
. When I do that I'll take a look at what it would mean to provide the same information for traditional projects, but the API calls to get that status information can be quite expensive in densely-populated orgs. My guess is that it wouldn't be an automatic background operation but rather something you could request explicitly. -
