How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

  1. Create a workspace from a devfile which has the attribute gl/use-vscode-1-81: false
    schemaVersion: 2.2.0
    variables:
      registry-root: registry.gitlab.com
    components:
      - name: tooling-container
        attributes:
          gl/inject-editor: true
          gl/use-vscode-1-81: false
        container:
          image: registry.gitlab.com/vtak/gitlab-web-ide-vscode-fork/ubuntu:24.04-workspace
  2. Open up the workspace and run the following command in the terminal to verify new version of VS Code(fork) is injected - /projects/.gl-tools/code-server/bin/gitlab-webide-server --version . The expected output is
    1.85.2
