How does the git-flow plugin integrate into IntelliJ IDEA?

There is a plugin for git-flow integration via IntelliJ IDEA:

https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7315

Getting git-flow to work via windows can be a little problematic, but once this is done then the plugin works fine, in my experience so far.

One note: (in my experience) there should not be any versioned local changes in IDEA when you first init gitflow in a project, otherwise it will fail. Edit: I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, as per OpherV's comment I will report it. In the meantime my solution was to "stash" any local changes before initializing the repo.

    For example,

    git flow feature start MYFEATURE
    

    Is there a way git-flow operations like this can be done from within IntelliJ IDEA?
