Description Trent Reed 2014-03-08 18:04:32 UTC

Whenever I try to fetch a project from GitHub, KDevelop crashes. Please see the "Steps to Reproduce" to see how this is repro.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open KDevelop..
2. Click "Project->Fetch Project...".
3. Change the Source to "GitHub".
4. Select a GitHub project from the Source list. 
5. Press the "Get" button.
Actual Results:  
KDevelop then crashes.

Expected Results:  
It should have cloned from GitHub into the folder I specified and opened the project.

I realize this isn't an important feature, but I was excited to see it. Hope it can get up-and-running soon! :)

I found the issue, I did not have the GitHub Plugin loaded. Seems like it should just not display the "Fetch" dialog if I don't have GitHub Plugin loaded. But after enabling this, things worked as expected.
