Support for local git in workspaces
Workspace sounds great, but I need it to work with local git repo.
Actually, it supports only online services, which is not always the case in a single user scenario or companies working on a central file server.
I have a project composed of 3 git, that I would love to manage better with workspace.

Jonathan PoulterIf this supported "local" git repos, not just hosted repos this would enable usage in enterprises which self-host

Ryan MergedYou should be able to add a local repository to a workspace that is already on your PC.
Gitkraken could auto check what remotes are set for that local repository to ensure its available for access if its a shared workspace. -

boundlessAs a *distributed* VCS, Git was designed to support non-centralized use cases, including multiple remotes and zero remotes, local-only repos and repos with network remotes. Tying GitKraken to online services exclusively goes against the grain and makes it unusable in a large number of use cases.
Not supporting local-only repositories is also problematic for another reason. Many people often start with local repos and only later push them to a remote. Those repos should be supported natively just like any other. -

Simon Lowe Mergedi also think this would be a great enhancement.
I work on about 20 repositories in a github organisation of 1400.
The organisation github admins are unwilling to authorize gitkraken,
I can't therefore use workspaces, because the add workspaces feature insists that the discover of workspaces is achieved by querying github. In contrast, if you let me create a workspace by nominating a list of repositories that I have already cloned onto my machine, then I and presumably many other developers who have paid for gitkraken out of our own pocket , could benefit from the workspaces feature.
Impact: You never know.. if my bosses see me using gitkraken, and they like it, well that's the way tools normally get adopted and approved.
I work an an enterprise with 300+ staff activeley using git.. |
If you want to grow sales of gitkraken licences.. seems like an obvious opportunity
