#149 Groupable projects

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: agarhost...@gmail.com

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I want to be able to have certain projects grouped into 1 main
project/group. I should be able to collapse this group.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP/Vista. Version 1.5.1

Please provide any additional information below.

In the provided screenshots i can see a grouping feature. But i can't find something
like that in the application. If this isn't implemented until now i would be great
feature.

I also did not find a clear grouping feature in the program. But if you use multiple
projects in one SVN server (for example, "http://localhost/svn/project1 and
"http://localhost/svn/project2" then you can create a new record in the
CommitMonitor with the URL "http://localhost/svn and the name "MyProjects". In this
case, projects "Project1" and "Project2" automatically be grouped within
"MyProjects". For convenience (to avoid error messages) project "MyProjects" can be
made inactive.

Though still it would be easier to explicitly create a new group, for example when
should be grouped projects from different SVN servers.

I think, that not only it'd be cool if you are able to collectively collapse-expand projects, but to specify common settings for a group of projects would be just great.

For example, it is convenient to set common check interval for a group, so if you have 10 projects and set the interval = 1 hour, you would receive only one update notification every hour, not every (approx) 6 minutes as it is now (60 / 10 =6).

So, I suggest to allow to set settings on the level of the group, and if project doesn't declare some particular setting, than the one from group is used.

For example, if project doesn't declare check interval - the one from the group is used. And more - all projects within the group are checked collectively, at the same time.
If project  doesn't declare ignore users list, but the group does - than the group's one is used.
