Description

Add a popup card for remote repositories that show data from Github/Gitlab/Bitbucket.

Data we have:

  • Repository URL
    • Owner
    • Repo name
  • Last commit hash
  • Main branch name
  • Link to repo with branch name?

Data we'd have to query several APIs for and might be hard to do consistently:

  • Repo stats like stars, forks, etc
  • Links to issues/etc
  • Stats like issues/prs count
  • Last commit?

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by identifying where remote repository objects and popup cards are rendered, then determine how repository URL, owner, name, last commit hash, and main branch are currently exposed. Done means a popup card presents the agreed repository data consistently across GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.
