Summary

Steps to reproduce

Clicking the Remote Indicator in the bottomleft reveals the Remote Repositories option:

The Remote Repositories lists GitLab as an option.

Selecting this option will show the Repository selector that also appears when you use Git: Clone > Clone from GitLab, including the prompt for using SSH or HTTPS.

Selecting one of the two URLs will result in this:

What is the current bug behavior?

VS Code asks for another extension, and refuses to open the repository (regardless of the other extension being installed)

What is the expected correct behavior?

VS Code should not ask for SSH/HTTPS, and open the remote repository using the GitLab Workflow.
