Description
Problem to solve
Back in https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/pull/5587, we've added some links to the branch on the branches page. However, the original issue (see #5585) described the addition of adding links to commits which could be useful on Branches and Prebuilds pages.
See relevant comment in https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/pull/5587#discussion_r718264256.
