Hi,  
i am adding functionality to the redmine’s (a ror apps) repository  
feature. changing some of the user interaction workflow.

I’ve modified some of the views and added some js and css.

What i would like to know, is if i can deploy this as a new plugin/  
extension, instead of a patch.  
I believe i would need to create a new plugin that inherits all the  
Repository Controllers and Models, using my modified views. Also i  
think the plugin would need to disable the current Repository feature,  
enabling my own.

Am i right? How should i do this?

ok, i’ve been lurking all day. and i’ve maybe found the solution for  
this.

so, i need a confirmation: this can be accomplished using Hooks?

This sounds like a Redmine specific question. You might have better  
luck asking on their forums.
