Description

Hi, I see many issues/requests about the great feature "Clone repo in Container Volume", but my need is to clone a specific branch in my repo.

The problem is that I have .devcontainer only in a specific branch, so cloning the repo creates a general container instead of using the customized from the branch.

My suggestion is just allowed to clone https://myrepo#myBranch or something.
