Description Nikolai Krasheninnikov 2020-04-18 11:09:20 UTC 
SUMMARY
Common use-case for vcs is checkout/clone.
For now Dolphin's KVersionControlPlugin interface doesn't support this because KVersionControlPlugin::actions() applied only for versioned directories.

This wishlist is for filling a request for this feature and also for a possible design discussion.

We can extend KVersionControlPlugin interface with one more pure virtual function. That function will return action list for a unversioned directory with clone action (and maybe more like for example plugin settings).

Function could be 'KVersionControlPlugin::unversionedActions()' and 'KVersionControlPlugin::versionedActions()' (previously known as 'actions()').

This requires simultaneous update of 'dolphin' and 'dolphin-plugins' projects.
