Repository management on remote machine using SSH connection

267 votes

I often work on servers via ssh connection and develop directly there (for example using VS-Code Remote Development using SSH: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh).
But unfortunately, I can not manage these local repositories on the remote machine through my local machine's GitKraken client. It would be a really nice feature to have because the in-built git client/extensions in VS-Code are not so good as GitKraken.

Seems this is the same feature request as https://feedback.gitkraken.com/suggestions/198549/ssh-tunneling

My organization uses dockerized development environments (where the code is cloned and built within a docker container) and they seem to be getting more popular.

The primary way I've seen to work with these environments is via SSH. The lack of this feature means I'm going to have to discontinue use of GitKraken despite loving it.

*EDIT: it may just be a URL and SSH issue for me. I might not have the same use case as the above posters, and I may have the feature I need already available after all.

Just came across the need for this recently. Would love to have something akin to the abilities that PHPStorm has with SSH deployment. I have to code locally and test remotely, but for various reasons I need to manage git activity on the remote server due to shared scripts. Would be nice to identify that server as a valid remote repository so I can leverage GitKraken.

Have to work with code checked out into build environments on AWS instances (we have a "no code on local machine" policy).
I have been using the remote development tools in PyCharm and would seriously like to be able to manage the repos on these remote machines using GK.
