Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-10541:
-------------------------------------

Just for context, the reason we never did auto-adding is because often times there are files that should NOT be auto-added. If I remember correctly, a default openshift application has a few files that should not be auto-added. I also remember us discussing this once before and feeling that throwing up dialogs every time a publish is requested removes the single benefit using publishing has over using the git menus: basically, speed. 

It had been discussed before, but it was voted down. I remember the discussion going somewhere along the lines of, if users wanted to customize everything that was added for its commit, they could use the git menu. If they wanted default behaviours with no dialogs, they would use server publishing. If each publish attempt opened a dialog, this would become annoying pretty quickly to the user. If there are files they already decided they don't want auto-added, being asked over and over to add them at each publish will become oppressive. And since there's no real way to store those files which are repeatedly not added in the current egit dialogs, we might be forced to clone / fork their dialog boxes, complicating our codebase. 

It's possible that I can recognize newly added files and auto-add them, but I'd prefer to have a setting for that first, and that requires us to clean up how we set and store our server settings. currently everything is stored in the server editor, but continually dumping more and more settings there looks pretty bad.
