Is there a way to get git to work properly from within a dev container using VS Code?

问题

I am working with VS Code and I installed the Remote Development extension. I created a devcontainer for my Angular application. So far, everything works fine. The Dockerfile and the devcontainer.json files are pretty simple:

Dockerfile:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/typescript-node:0-12

devcontainer.json:

{
    "name": "Angular App",
    "dockerFile": "Dockerfile",
    "settings": { 
        "git.path": "/usr/bin/git",
        "terminal.integrated.shell.linux": "/bin/bash"
    },
    "extensions": [
        "angular.ng-template",
        "natewallace.angular2-inline",
        "dbaeumer.vscode-eslint"
    ],
    "forwardPorts": [4200, 9876],
    "mounts": [ ],
    "remoteEnv": { },
    "postCreateCommand": "yarn install",
}

Outside of my container, my git path is in the C:\Program Files\... directory. Within my container the git path is /usr/bin/git, which is why I set the "git.path" property up, and I verified this by using the which git command inside my container. Of course, none of the git commands work because they always lead to an error.

fatal: Could not chdir to 'C:/Workspace/my-angular-app': No such file or directory

I could always use the Remote-Containers: Reopen Locally command, and once I'm back in Windows (outside the container), my source control lights up with all my diffs and git works just fine. But, if there is a way to get git to work from within the container it would be helpful. I don't want to constantly have to exit the container to identify the diffs as I'm working on changes.

This has been resolved, but it was originally a Docker issue: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/2591

You might also need to change the Windows style path to a *nix style path. In this case, instead of C:/Workspace.... try /mnt/c/Workspace...
