Description

Hello,

I was wondering if it could be possible to move the following settings into the "Remote" section, or at least allow them to be overriden in the "Remote" section:

  • dev.containers.dockerComposePath
  • dev.containers.dockerPath
  • dev.containers.executeInWSL

I have a different container "engine" when I use WSL (docker), or when I use another remote environment (podman).
Doing so would help me, because I would no longer have to change this settings everytime I switch from WSL to the other remote environment.
