Support opening the same repo multiple times (tab/window) #1832

Open themilkman opened 8 months ago

themilkman commented 8 months ago

Problem description

When performing searches or diffing selected tabs, it'd be useful to have the same repository open more than once to keep track of different things - without influencing each others state. Currently, SM always focuses the opened repo, no matter in which way the repo was re-opened. That's in fact useful often/mostly, but not always desired. Using the safe-mode (or even worktrees) for this is not really a handy solution.

Preferred solution

Add a option to "duplicate" the tab and/or add a command line option to force a new, separate tab/window for the given path.
