Custom item in the Clone Dropdown list
Release notes
For people with more than Gitlab account, it's necessary configuring different Hosts entries in the SSH configuration. This causes that the git URI in the clone dropdownlist, needs to be changed manually.
eg:
Host gitlab.com
hostname gitlab.com
user git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_gitlab_username1
IdentitiesOnly yes
Host gitlab.com.user2
hostname gitlab.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_gitlab_username2
user git
IdentitiesOnly yes
Then, for the user2
, you need to copy and edit before executing the clone to something like:
git clone git@gitlab.com.user2:org/folder/repo.git
It would be great to count with a custom additional URI in the dropdown list, customizable from the Profile's settings.
Problem to solve
It is more a UX issue, on which it is necessary to change manually a URI that could be customized.
Intended users
Proposal
- Option at Profile's settings that allows to add a custom git URI
- Then, the custom URI will be used in the "clone repository" dropdown list for adding an additional item.
