    Description

      1. Create a git repository which contains a Qt project, a file which is not part of this project and at least one change to the file outside the project.
      2. Open this project in Creator.
      3. Compare the output of "Tools" -> "Git" -> "Current Project" -> "Log Project ..." and "Tools" -> "Git" -> "Local Repository" -> "Log".
        Both give exactly the same output.

      It seems like "Current Project" does not care about the project at all and simply refers to directories. Either this should be fixed or renamed to reflect the actual behavior.
