Automatically open Git perspective on start-up #1

Closed planger closed 3 years ago

planger commented 6 years ago

Currently users have to open the Git perspective manually. We should open this by default.

I found one caveat that -pluginCustomization plugin_customization.ini property inside megit.ini its path to plugin_customization.ini is relative therefore megit should be executed within its directory.

What works with hypothetical path /usr/local/megit:

localhost:~:%
cd /usr/local/megit && ./megit

What will be problematic:

localhost:~:%
/usr/local/megit/megit

Workaround can also be to edit megit.ini and set absolute path -pluginCustomization <absolute_path>
