Description
It would be handy in the project context menu to say 'link to existing checkout'. This is to deal with cases where I e.g. have copied the project from one machine to another using a USB key, or if I have downloaded the project using the web ui and placed it on my disk.

Research direction

Reproduce the case where a project folder was copied or downloaded outside the plugin, then define completion as a menu action that links that folder as an existing checkout and works for both described scenarios.
