Allow repos from different hosts to be in a single Workspace

21 votes

I love the concept of Workspaces - it could be really useful for managing work across projects, where those involve multiple repos. However I was surprised to see the concept is currently restricted to a single repo host platform (eg Github). It is not unusual to be working across a mix of public and internally hosted repos, and it would be great if a Workspace could flexible enough to support this.

Thanks for considering :)

This! Please :)! I have two related projects run by different people, one on github, and one with two repos on gitlab, it would be wonderful to see them all in a workspace.

Hello! This would be so useful to me too. Our company is migrating from GitLab to GitHub so it would be useful to group repos from different hosts.

Same here. Why is this a limitation ?

I'm a Tech Lead on outsourcing team. We are working on external clients repositories all the time, so i have multiple repositories to watch from all providers. I'd really love the option to have this all aggregated in a single workspace

Surprised I couldn't add repositories from GitLab after adding repositories from Stash. I guess it's locked to just one host when you create the workspace. Some components of our app are hosted in Stash and others in GitLab. We'll eventually consolidate them in GitLab, but it would be nice to manage them under a single workspace. Really, what we need isn't workspaces; we just need multiple tab rows. The workspace view that shows the current branch in all repos is nice. Would be way better if it also showed the status of the repo. I have a separate tool I use to show/manage multiple respositories, their statuses, and switch branches all in one view.
