command line parameters for opening repos about gitnuro

not sure where to put it, but gitnuro is currently not able to open repositories from within a subdir.

with git it's easy to find out whether you are in a subdir. so as a workaround i'm using this bash script:

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# -gt 0 ]; then
    java -jar ~/bin/Gitnuro.jar $(cd $1 && git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
elif git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    java -jar ~/bin/Gitnuro.jar "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
else
    java -jar ~/bin/Gitnuro.jar
fi

That should already be working unless you are using the Flatpak version, which has an open issue about it.

[adam-ce]

interesting, yes, i'm using flatpak. could you point to the bug?

I tried the jar now and it doesn't try to open the working directory as a repo, but that's easy to workaround with a custom start script.

The jar version also opens the same repo several times in separate tabs. i would expect, that it would just switch to the tab if it already exists.

Yes, it's something kinda intentional because under some circumastances having a repo opened twice can be useful.

The flatpak issue is this flathub/com.jetpackduba.Gitnuro#11
I forgot about it until recently, I have tried to fix the script but no much luck yet. I'll probably try again before the next release.

[adam-ce]

okey, fair enough :)

would be cool if you could put some command line options there to customise the behaviour. in the future this could serve e.g. for opening specific sessions etc.

also, there is no gitnuro --version or --help :)
