Feature improvement in Shelve dialog: select an existing shelf by default

[Shawn W]

I use the Shelve feature quite often, to back up the intermediate changes in my checkout.

1) in the shelf name dropdown / edit box, it is always empty at start.
Suggestion: should automatically select the latest updated shelf (or the only existing shelf).

Benefits: reduce manual effort in selecting from the dropdown, while most of the time I keep adding new revisions to the last-used shelf.

2) I tried command line like: 

TortoiseProc.exe /command:shelve /path:"." /shelfname:"myshelf"

TortoiseProc.exe /command:shelve /path:"." /shelfname:myshelf

And the shelfname argument is ignored and not reflected in the UI.

Suggestion: support the shelfname parameter per the doc: https://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-automation.html

Then at command line, the following command shows the existing shelves in old-to-new order, and the last one can be passed to TortoiseProc in the shelfname argument:

svn x-shelf-list -q

3) Shelve dialog selects the focus on the Shelve button by-default.

For me the Checkpoint button is used much often.
I do have multiple checkouts such that Shelve and reset is not necessary, while I can work on new changes in another repository.

Suggestion: add a new command line argument to allow selecting the Checkpoint button by default.

Best regards,

Shawn

BTW, Unshelve dialog has similar behavior in the shelf name dropdown / edit box. Yet it is much less used, and might not be worthy of making the improvement.
