Enhance the description or the activated feature of mgit #705

Closed jpggithub closed 7 months ago

jpggithub commented 7 months ago

On f-droid (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.manichord.mgit/), the description of Mgit indicates that

Antifeatures:
* Tracking: You can't run the app unless you agree to send error and
crash reports to the developers Sentry.io account. The reports will contain
information about the device you are using, a unique randomly generated ID
and potentially some metadata about the git repo that you are using. 

This description is not reassuring at all.

Perhaps you can explain what "potentially" means, simply deactivate the reports, or give the ability to the user to de/activate the reports ?

That is out of date, as you can see, Sentry usage was removed almost 2 years ago: https://github.com/maks/MGit/pull/597

I don't know why FDroid have not updated the description.

Thank you for your answer. I will see what can be done with f-droid and I will post the result here for your information.

@maks

I don't know why FDroid have not updated the description.

Because no one opened an issue or a MR or anything :shrug:

/LE: done in https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/commit/3628f774cfffa0066b1ae607672ba68d34299ea4
