Spike: Implement remote repositories similar to GitHub
Problem to solve
Microsoft recently introduced a new RemoteHub extension which made it possible to view and edit GitHub repositories without cloning them. It will be a very good idea to implement the same functionality in this extension in regard to GitLab.
Proposal
There is a documentation about the underlying Virtual Workspaces API which is used to implement that extension. Unfortunately, the original extension is not open source, but there is an issue about Virtual Workspaces API proposals and questions.
