Git commit d2506ffa63812fd0d8e9de248d7f3dd94ec2bf38 by Nate Graham, on behalf of Alexander Saoutkin. Committed on 22/06/2019 at 13:47. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Open new instance of Dolphin if no URLs are given Summary: Related: bug 408244 FIXED-IN: 19.08.0 Currently Dolphin only opens a new instance of itself in the following two scenarios: 1. No other Dolphin instances ( D21666 deals with not matching daemonized instances) are currently running. 2. A new instance is explicitly asked for via: `dolphin --new-window` A third scenario is needed to fix this bug: 3. If no URLs are passed in as arguments then open a new instance. This patch adds this third scenario. Test Plan: STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin 2. Right-click on Dolphin's Task Manager Entry and click "Start New Instance" 3. A new instance is created. As my system stuff is not built on master I am unable to replicate the bug (and can't confirm whether this fixes it), hence I'll rely on @ngraham to confirm whether this patch fixes the issue.
