action #162647
Updated by mkittler 9 days ago
**EDIT: This ticket was resolved with the result that this use case already works (see #162647#note-3).**
## Motivation
I am not aware that this has ever been tested. So we should do that as it is going to be important for the overall Git support.
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1**: The developer mode and its feature to reload newly created needles work when NEEDLES_DIR is a Git source. So when the test is paused due to a needle mismatch and one creates a new needle via the needle editor and then continues the test the new needle is considered.
### Suggestions
* Try out the [re-needling workflow](https://open.qa/docs/#_workflow_for_creating_or_updating_needles) on a test that sets `NEEDLES_DIR` to a Git source.
* Extend unit/integration tests of the developer mode (if it is worth the effort).
* Change the needle download mechanism in os-autoinst and/or openQA to make it work as necessary.
