Create a patch from workspace changes #14829

Open gtsiolis opened 1 year ago

Problem to solve

Following up from https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/issues/14364, it could be interesting to explore new ways to provide better alternatives for exporting workspace changes locally or in the cloud, without requiring users to download the full workspace.

Proposal

TBD (To be discussed)

One potentially good MVC could be to introduce a way to export changes as a git patch, see screenshot below and relevant discussion (internal).
