Created attachment 278712 [details] Screenshot Both "Remove Repository from View" and "Delete Repository" menu entries are IMHO relative rare operation. I suggest to combine them in one dialog trigger by a menu entry similar to "Remove Repository" and offer a option "Delete Git repository on disk" option on the dialog. Same as we do on the "Delete project" dialog. See screesshot

That already exists. Hit the delete key with a repo node selected :-) Someone apparently thought it would be useful to give the user both possibilities in the context menu.
I thought something similar several times when using the menus. I'm also in favor of having only one menu item there to reduce the used space, since those are seldomly used. The solution with the minimum effort would be to remove both menu items (to no longer target the similarly named commands) and to add a new one labeled "Remove repository" that invokes the handler currently used for delete. There is just one drawback: This new menu item and the existing command "Remove repository" would do different things, although having the same name. Anyone with a better name? One could still argue about combining the 2 dialogs (remove or delete - how to delete) into one, but I find the current workflow with 2 dialogs more easy to understand for end users.
