I have some ideas to the programmers!

Post by *efree »

As programmers, I guess they use the Source control system,for example cvs, svn, git etc., but I am not found a client is easy to use except the web version. I like the layout as TC, but I found that there is no plugin to do that task.
:idea: Could someone could make a plugin to do that, just as the FTP client in the TC?

I think the problem is that the interface is too limited for this type of plugin. For instance, how would you "check out" or "check in" the files?

Check out, check in, versioning, etc. whole functionality would be provided if plugin could act as proxy for another tool. It is doable, the question is: how much effort would it take and how usable would it be?

On the other hand there are many plugins for various purposes:
- network (just to name a few: WebDAV, FTP, SFTP, SkyDrive, Delicious Posts, RSS, ADO Data Sources) ,
- drives - BadCopy, CDripper, ext2fs, TCburner,
- external devices - CanonCamera, iPodNet, NokiaFS, MPM,
- Windows - decClipboard, Registry, TotalConsole,
- other flavours - Calendar, CDdatabase, MirandaFS, PassStore, TWinAmp.

It is definitely possible to have a good one for source code control. I've just listen only few possible plugins and it does not cover all possibilities.
Ha! And there is even something like cvsBrowser!

maybe some abstract plugin can be implemented then specific commands added later like templates.

but who will take the time to work on this? i guess only who need to control multiple flavors and can be in such a way that on directory entry it will switch automatically.

otherwise just having rapidsvn / tortise is enough.
