Checklist

• I'm using the latest version of the extension (see the latest version in the right column of this page)
  • Extension version: v3.60.0
• I'm using the latest VS Code version (find the latest version here)
  • VS Code version: 1.75.1

  • GitLab version: 15.7.7-ee

Summary

Steps to reproduce

1. Open a GitLab project with multiple submodules (about 10)
2. Open the GitLab Workflow sidebar
3. Reload the window and open the GitLab Workflow sidebar again

What is the current bug behavior?

In projects with many submodules, the ordering of the projects in the changes every time you open the GitLab workflow sidebar.

What is the expected correct behavior?

I'd expect alphabetic ordering for the projects in the sidebar. The current implementation makes it difficult to find the project you're interested in.
