Where t out does not honor parent .timetrap.sheet file #109

Open kotp opened 9 years ago

kotp commented 9 years ago

If I am in a child folder of a project and I want to check out of timetrap it should honor the same sheet. I have several sheets and noticed this today.

I don't often change into sub-folders, but it surprised me, as it should probably search up the folder chain and look for that file.

What happened for me is that it complained that I was not on the "other project" time sheet when I did t out.

To simplify this:

When I am in a project and I t in I should start time on that project when I change to a child folder of that project and then I t out I should stop time on that project

I agree that having timetrap look up the directory structure for a .timetrap-sheet file wouild be an improvement. I believe @UnderpantsGnome did the implementation of the .timetrap-sheet autosheets functionality and might be interested in making that change. You could also check out the docs on AutoSheets (https://github.com/samg/timetrap#autosheets) since that system was designed to be extensible to match various user workflows. I won't have time to work on this in the near future but would happily accept a pull request if you or someone else felt like making this improvement.

Thanks!
