## Extension Settings
**Note for Private/Self-Hosted GitLab Domains**
If you are using a private or self-hosted GitLab instance (for example, `git.example.com`), the extension may not automatically recognize your domain as a GitLab server. In this case, you need to manually configure your domain as a GitLab instance in the extension settings to ensure full compatibility.
**How to Configure:**
1. Open VS Code Settings (`Ctrl+,` or `Cmd+,`).
2. Search for `git-open.providerDomains`.
3. Add a custom mapping for your domain.
For example, to treat `git.example.com` as a GitLab instance, add:
```json
{
"git-open.providerDomains": {
"git.example.com": "gitlab"
}
}
```
You can do this via the settings UI (as an object) or directly in your `settings.json`.
This tells the extension to treat your specified domain as a GitLab server, enabling all GitLab-specific features.
### Commands Contributed
* `git-open.openRemoteRepo`: Open Remote Repository

* `git-open.openPipelines`: Open Pipelines/Actions
## Troubleshooting
### Extension not detecting Git repository
**Problem**: Commands don't work or show "Not a Git repository" error.
**Solution**:
- Ensure you have Git installed and available in your PATH
- Verify the folder is a Git repository by running `git status` in the terminal
- If not a Git repository, click the "Initialize Git" button in the error message or run `git init`
### Remote URL not found
**Problem**: Error message "No remote repository configured".
**Solution**:
- Check if your repository has a remote configured: `git remote -v`
- Add a remote if missing: `git remote add origin `
- Or click the "Add Remote" button in the error message
### Provider not recognized
**Problem**: Extension doesn't recognize your self-hosted Git provider (GitLab, GitHub Enterprise, etc.).
**Solution**: See [Extension Settings](#extension-settings) section below for how to configure custom provider domains.
### Commands not working in multi-repo workspace
**Problem**: Extension doesn't prompt for repository selection.
**Solution**:
- Ensure each workspace folder is a valid Git repository
- The extension will automatically detect and prompt you to choose when multiple Git repos are found
- Your selection is cached and prioritized for future use
