Git - Support git worktrees in workspace

[colemickens]

$ mkdir repro
$ cd repro
$ mkdir example1
$ cd example1
$ git init; echo "hello" > world.txt; git add world.txt; git commit -m "init";
$ git worktree add ../example1branchA
$ git worktree add ../example1branchB
$ cd ..

$ mkdir example2
$ cd example2
$ git init; echo "hello" > world.txt; git add world.txt; git commit -m "init";
$ cd ..

Scenario:

1. Open repro directory in VS Code
2. Go to Git tab.

Expected: "Source Control Providers" lists Git repos.

• example1
• example1branchA
• example1branchB
• example2

Actual: "Source Control Providers" lists Git repos.

• example1
• example2

I sometimes will have lots of branches checked out in parallel on huge repos that I can't afford to clone multiple times. I would also like to be able to use VS Code's source control functionality with these checkouts all the same.

Thanks! and thanks for Code!

Thanks for submitting this issue. Please also check if it is already covered by an existing one, like:

• Submodules with the same folder name are indistinguishable in the source control view (#55844)

Thank you honorable vscodebot, but this feature request is not a duplicate of that issue.

i just tested this out and it looks to be fixed now on v1.35.0 @colemickens is this still an issue for you?

In current version 1.40.2 I can see the multiple source control providers only when the root does not contain a .git and is initialized by the command 'Git: Initialize Repository'.
After closing and reopening VSCode, only the git for the project root is shown, subdirs with own .git are no longer listed.

I am facing a similar issue, any updates here?
