[kate] [Bug 453153] Project plugin does not list externally created files
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453153 Waqar Ahmed changed: What|Removed |Added CC||waqar@gmail.com --- Comment #6 from Waqar Ahmed --- Valid, but I think we haven't done this intentionally. Directory watching brings some problems with it and has little benefit. I assume people spend more time writing code / text then creating files. Even you create 10 files in an hour, clicking the refresh button is trivial. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453153 --- Comment #5 from Lothar --- > It does seems I am asking too much of the plugin I don't know, I don't like it in this form either. But my ideas for changes are unpopular. To your request: It would logical fit when there would be an "action" (button/menu) to import/add new files to some project. Then would the plugin know it need an update and could also trigger "stage new stuff". But, yes, just keep in mind you need to reload manually is a working compromise. Um, that reminds me, there was some other patch. When you open your new add stuff and save it, it appear then as "untracked". So, half way solved, I guess. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

So it's wise not to use it too careless. OK, fair enough. It does seems I am asking too much of the plugin. Have to keep in mind pressing that "refresh" icon if I am not seeing new files ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I appreciate your comment. I did a quick look in kate's giltab, but did not find any mention of the problem (probably my search-fu was not at it's best). But I am willing to believe you. Yet I am not entirely convinced that "watching" directory for new files is that expensive these days. Lots of editors/IDEs cope with that quite good. Also, technologies like inotify allow to solve it quite easily (albeit I recognize the challenge of doing it in platform agnostic way). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
