I have a WSL2 image mapped to a local drive via the \\wsl$ share.
It appears that repoz ignores non-fixed drives (which makes sense as a default)
Would it be possible to allow tracking repos through this mount?
I could attempt a fix if you think it's a good idea.

I see several options to accomplish this:

  • Allow any network share that points at \\wsl$
  • Option to allow user-specified network drives
  • Option to allow watching all network drives.

Understood.

You're absolutely right about the fixed drives. I don't think the all-or-nothing-choice to watch all network drives would be a good option.

However, I think that it might be convenient if RepoZ showed an UI with all the drives available. By default RepoZ checks and tracks the fixed ones:

[x] C: System         (fixed)
[x] D: Data           (fixed)
[ ] E: DVD            (removable)
[ ] \\wsl...          (network)
[ ] S: Synology Home  (network)

Do you want to add a feature like this?

Sure, I'm happy to attempt it.
I'll see if I can make it work as a new option in the hamburger menu.
