Hi all,

If you have a project under some GitHub repository, you can easily add a
"Clone to GitHub" badge that will start the Eclipse IDE and show the Git
clone dialog after a few dummy clicks (necessary for security purpose).
See https://github.com/mickaelistria/redirctToEclipseIDECloneCommand for
the 1-liner to add to your README files.

As a reminder, this is purely usage of the protocol handlers capabiltiies
of Eclipse Platform (
https://help.eclipse.org/2020-12/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.user%2Freference%2Fref-linkhandlersprefs.htm
). You can easily add your own protocol handlers for your integrations; the
gain on usability is huge as this allow more straightforward workflows.
The only tweak with GitHub is that it doesn't allow other links than http://
and https:// so a redirection service is necessary.

Cheers,
