Solution

  • This arrow indicates that you have committed once (therefore the one), but you haven't pushed the changes to your remote yet. The remote would be in your case Gitlab.

    EGit/User Guide - Label Decorations:

    ā†‘N ā€“ The local branch has N commits that are not yet on the remote-tracking branch. This can be read as "N commits to push".
