Bug ID: 436906
Summary: Do not include diffs created by kate in the list of
recent files
Product: dolphin
Version: 20.12.3
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: kde.podag...@slmail.me
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When a file opened in kate is modified externally, kate allows to generate a
diff of the change, and this works very well, the problem is that the diffs are
displayed in the list of recently opened files.
Now imagine doing this several times a day, the history is polluted with many
unnecessary files that don't even exist anymore.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open or create a file in kate
2. Modify it externally
3. Go back to kate and create a diff of the modification
OBSERVED RESULT
The temporary file will now be in the history.
If this file were permanent, it would make sense to have it in that list, but
it seems to me that as soon as the tab in which it is open is closed, the file
is deleted. So it makes no sense to list it in the history and create an
unnecessary distraction.
