That's the Dockerfile I was using

This issue can be reproduced in VS Code: I think Yes

Steps followed to reproduce

Here's what I did to reproduce (macOS Big Sur + Chrome + code-server 3.9.3 running locally)

1. mkdir two-sources && git clone https://github.com/jsjoeio/awesome-interactive-course-platforms.git && git clone https://github.com/jsjoeio/typescript-concepts-and-examples.git
2. start code-server code-server --auth none
3. Open two-sources inside code-server
4. make a change in each repo without committing

Actual

Both repositories show up in Source Control

Next Steps

This issue can be reproduced in VS Code: I think Yes

If this can be reproduced upstream, then it's not specific to code-server and should be filed upstream.

[code-asher]

Might be microsoft/vscode#87888. Seems git repositories nested in others don't show up in VS Code (to be more precise it seems to only detect repositories which are immediate children of the root folder).

One possible workaround would be to add the two directories to a workspace (File > Add Folder to Workspace). It'd be a little strange because the Zope directory here would show up twice in the explorer (once on its own and again under the code-server directory) but it might work well enough.

Edit: also see microsoft/vscode#37947
