This solution is not optimal. I think to be accepted into the main branch, support for the "description" attribute in "git for-each-ref" command is required.

Thanks for efforts on this. Is there anyone else that could help out here? It'd be a very useful feature to have

Curious if anyone has been able to look at this. Just learned of branch descriptions and they're useful in my workflow and could love to see them available in the VS Code UI
