Include options when cloning

Open jeremypw opened this issue 5 months ago • 2 comments

Problem

The command git clone has options --bare or --mirror but these are not accessible through the UI.

Proposal

Show radiobuttons for the allowed cloning options in the UI.

Prior Art (Optional)

Gitg allows "bare" cloning.

It is not clear whether Code, as an "elementary" app, should offer every possible option but opening this issue for feedback and tracking.

My opinion at this point because of my jobs is that we should not worry about it until it is really needed. At most just design things in a way that it is the lowest friction possible to add later, especially if the roadmap with Code is leading towards being more of an IDE than just a code text editor.
