I love the idea of accessing my GitPod servers using Code app on my iPad Pro for my web projects. Until here, no problem at all, everything works smoothly! However, when I choose a folder as a workspace, I would expect the Code App to “listen” to the git folder to fill “Version control” tab. For now, I get “The current workspace does not support source control”. The only way to have it work is to clone the Gitlab repository directly on my iPad, but then I cannot develop my project as the memory is limited (npm install completely freeze as the project is too complex).
I don’t know if it’s a simple request or not at all, but what if when a workspace is chosen in the Code App (via right click), the Version control tab is populated with the project local GIT folder? Because that’s definitely a big limitation for me to not be able to easily take a look at my changed files and commit simple changes without using the terminal. With that feature, the application would be perfect for me.
