The following steps are performed one after the other.
1. GitHubFileFetcher (1/6): Fetching GitHub repositories.
This function allows you to search for GitHub owners or GitHub repositories.
The search results (owner/repository) are then displayed.
2. GitHubFileFetcher (2/6): Fetching branches.
After selecting the repository, all possible branches are displayed.
3. GitHubFileFetcher (3/6): Fetching files.
After that, select the desired file.
4. GitHubFileFetcher (4/6): Fetching destination folder.
Pick the workspace folder where the file should be written. At least one folder must be open in the window; otherwise an error dialog is shown instead of crashing.
5. GitHubFileFetcher (5/6): Enter or change destination file path...
Enter or change destination file path.
6. GitHubFileFetcher (6/6): Added file.
`Hocus Pocus` - The file was created at the desired location. File content is fetched from the GitHub API (URL-encoded paths, UTF-8 decode with replacement for non-text bytes).
Failed GitHub requests (for example 403 rate limit, 404, or connection errors) show an error dialog with HTTP status when available and stop the workflow cleanly.
GitHubFileFetcher: Should I save the new repository in the settings?
So that you don't have to search for the repositories again and again,
you can save the currently used one in the settings.
