Currently not. When you are connected to a remote, the local history is inside the remote so that it "travels" with you when you connect from another machine.

Currently not. When you are connected to a remote, the local history is inside the remote so that it "travels" with you when you connect from another machine.
The problem is that it's not a real remote. It's a Docker remote container and whenever the devcontainer is rebuilt, the history is gone.
For Google travelers, the file location where the Local History entries live is here:
C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\History
Local history is a great feature and I love it.
Howevey, everytime I rebuild a remote Docker devcontainer, which happens frequently during development, the local history is gone.
Is there any way to specify the location, i.e. where to store the local versions?
Would be nice to keep them close to the workspace, not in a global user folder.
Making the location of file history settable would be great. I assume it's not a big change.
Thanks :)
