Description

Under `Sessions`, please show the absolute path and do not join when the same repository is selected at different folders. For example, if I have two clones of Foo, one at q:\src1\Foo and q:\src2\Foo, show both as separate entries under `Sessions`. This is the main blocker for me to migrate from CLI to the UX.

Research direction

Start at the Sessions view and trace how repositories are grouped when their folder paths differ. Reproduce the case with two Foo clones at q:\src1\Foo and q:\src2\Foo, then verify that both appear as separate entries with their absolute paths under Sessions.
