Option to open repository as a new tab in the current window #992

Closed matthewhively closed 2 months ago

matthewhively commented 2 months ago

I often open several related repositories within tabs of the same GitUp window. Whenever I need to restart GitUp application itself, it is a multi-step process to reopen the tabs. I have to 1-by-1 open each repo through the open recent sub-menu. Then I have to either window> merge all windows or drag and drop each repo into the primary window. The merge all windows works great if I only have a single group to open. But if I want to have multiple groups of tabbed GitUp windows, I cannot use that option. It would be great if there were a way to directly through the file menu open a repo as a new tab.

There's a macOS option for this already. It's in Settings > Desktop & Dock > Prefer tabs when opening documents, where you can set it to "Always". Works fine with GitUp in my experience.

Nice... I didn't even know that existed.

That's a good enough solution I suppose.
