5 Allowing qgit to accept a "directory" argument - ID: 2777874
Last Update: Comment added ( jaalburquerque )

Would it be possible to add functionality to qgit to accept a "directory"
argument so that it can be run on a selected a git folder from a file
manager? That would make it possible to us qgit from a graphical desktop
environment and not only in the command line. If possible, thanks.

Yes. I discovered that it is possible to wrap qgit for these purposes.
Please close this request if you find it convenient. Thanks.

What you're talking about is a so called "shell extension", while it does
seem useful (other SCM frontends also implement such functionality), it's
highly platform specific - so the implementation depends on your platform,
it will differ for Win32, Vista, Linux (KDE, Gnome etc.)

Maybe there's a wrapper available that provides support for the most
important platforms, tho

Note however that qgit itself can already be used from a "graphical
desktop environment", it is certainly not restricted to being run via a
shell

I forgot to mention that I'm new to git so this may not make sense.
