---------------------------------------
[~fbricon] yeah, JBDS-3489 covers this issue pretty well. You can consider this one as
resolved.

friendly

Key: JBIDE-20508
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20508
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: openshift
Affects Versions: 4.3.0.CR1
Reporter: Marián Labuda
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 4.3.1.Beta1
Currently if user wants to modify an existing application based on a template with source
code, user has to fork a repo containing source code, copy URL of a fork and paste it into
template parameter SOURCE_CODE_URL. This is a bit unfriendly work flow from my point of
view, because it requires several steps:
1) At first user has to know an URL of a source code for a template. Intuitively user
would go through New Application Wizard to Template Parameters wizard page and check value
of SOURCE_CODE_URL parameter.
2) Fork a repository containing source code - it requires switching to browser and go to
the repository web page and fork repo.
3) Copy a URL of user's source code repo (its easier to use SSH url
git@github.com:user/repo.git to avoid filling in credentials for a github account)
plus importing an application, making changes, commit and push.
Would it be possible to create a fork and use user specific URL automatically? E.g. show
a dialog to enter github username and tooling would via git API fork the repo and put the
user specific source code URL into wizard page as template parameter.
