Can't save Remote - Containers dotfiles settings #4766

Open mjmaurer opened 3 years ago

mjmaurer commented 3 years ago

Issue Type: Bug

I'm trying use dotfiles with Remote containers. The settings do not appear in the User or Workspace UI panels, but instead in the Remote [Dev Container: Existing Dockerfile] panel where each field displays Sync: Ignored. Adding them here results in the settings being removed after a container is rebuilt.

Adding the settings manually to settings.json and opening a remote container displays:

This setting cannot be applied in this window. It will be applied when you open local window.

but of course the settings aren't useful locally. Also, the dotfiles repo isn't cloned when the settings are added to settings.json.

You can set in the global settings when not connected to a dev container. This requires https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/119183 to fix.
