Hi org-mode developers,
Recently I found it very useful to being able to store links linking to
source code in git repository. I used org-git-link.el for this purpose and
it works well.
However, the biggest problem I'm having now is that once I loaded
org-git-link.el, I'm forced to always store links linking to git repository
which is not always I want because I also need to be able to store links
linking to the files in the working directory instead of in the git
repository.
I'm aware of the 'C-u C-u' prefix of `org-store-link', however, by the
current design, using 'C-u C-u' negates `org-context-in-file-links', i.e.,
the link would be stored without embedding the text to search for.
Is it possible to make `org-store-link' able to skip the link storing
functions without touching `org-context-in-file-links'?
Thanks in advance,
York

Yeah, org-store-link overloads ARG, and there seems to be an undesirable
interaction here.

I think that, when negating org-context-in-file-links, the function
should check whether a single C-u was given rather than just checking if
ARG is non-nil. If someone uses C-u C-u to fall back to core Org
functions, I don't see any reason to assume that they also want to
reverse their org-context-in-file-links preference.

Exactly!

Seems to be a reasonable solution to me. So would you go ahead and make the
change, or, would more people need to agreed on this solution?

Maybe!
Thanks,

If there are no objections within a few days, I'll apply the following
patch to maint.
-- >8 --
Subject: [PATCH] org-store-link: Don't roll C-u behavior into C-u C-u behavior
* lisp/org.el (org-store-link): When a double C-u prefix argument is
given, do not reverse the meaning of the org-context-in-file-links
option.
* testing/lisp/test-org.el (test-org/store-link): Add tests.
This allows the user to fall back to the core link storing functions
without also reversing their org-context-in-file-links preference,
because wanting to do the former does not mean a user also wants to do
the latter.
