Vscode-project-manager: Git - No projects detected

[danlance]

I may be missing something basic here... but can't for the life of me see what...

When I go to the GIT section within Project Manager, I see the message:

No projects detected

In order to detect GIT projects, you have to configure the 'baseFolders' where the Git projects are.

Followed by buttons for Open Settings / I don't need Git projects.

I have the following projectManager settings within my settings.json:

    "projectManager.git.baseFolders": [
        "~/sites"
    ],
    "projectManager.git.maxDepthRecursion": 5,

... but never see any Git projects auto detected, despite having dozens of Git repos within subfolders of ~/sites

I'm running on Mac OS Catalina.

Any ideas?

Hi @danlance ,

The extension supports for HOME folder, but instead of using _tilde_ symbol, I created the $home variable.

From the README file:

Use a special variable called $home while defining any path. It will be replaced by the HOME folder.

Just update your path and your repos should appear.

Hope this helps

Thanks - that works 👍
