Repo paging control

[rnystrom]

Mostly a heads-up for @Sherlouk while he's working on projects.

Working on adding a paging control to GitHawk on the repo view. Would like to use the same control for profile when that gets worked on. Maybe even add this to Inbox too (tho it'll break the swipe-to-read feature).

I'm using Tabman atm, seems to be the best control I can find (best = no bugs, simple API). It also has an "inchworm" UI (where the slider line changes widths) which we built on IG once. Really cool detail!

I looked into PageMenu but it has an orientation-change bug that I don't feel like fixing. I started by using this control then removed it.

Also looked at XLPagerTabStrip but didn't try it out.

Anything major I'm missing? cc @BasThomas @rizwankce

Well this certainly helps me with the stuff in #335! And actually because of the way I've built my stuff it should slot in much nicer as it's already it's own VC

Will have a full look at this tonight, but on the face of it looks good

I love that this lets us split apart the overview, issues, and other stuff into child VCs. MUCH cleaner architecture.

[Sherlouk]

Yeah that's definitely an improvement! Would like to get projects on this sooner rather than later, any major changes coming up to make me wait?

@Sherlouk issues/PR aren't done yet, and there's a content-inset bug. I should have this done + merged tonight tho. But you could rebase off of this now and start using it. Only major change would be if someone pointed out some jaw-dropping paging control that I missed. Doubt it tho.

Awesome! FWIW, the try! Swift app is using the XLPagerTabStrip and it seems to work fine, but don’t really see a reason to switch if Tabman works OK 😃

[Sherlouk]

Also with the new issue/pr pages should be a lot easier (and nicer UI) to add an open/closed switch!

Checked out Tabman and really liked the Tabman styles. Hope we don’t want to try any other control and stick with Tabman.
