Desktop reuses the same window for two local clones of the same git remote #33313
Closed as not planned
Description
Description
opencode desktop cannot open two different local directories that are clones of the same git remote at the same time. Opening the second directory reuses the window of the first one, so only one of them can ever be shown.
Steps to reproduce
- Clone the same remote into two separate local directories:
- ~/path-a/myrepo (origin: git@:/myrepo.git)
- ~/path-b/myrepo (origin: git@:/myrepo.git)
- Open ~/path-a/myrepo in opencode desktop.
- Open ~/path-b/myrepo in opencode desktop.
Expected
Two separate windows/sessions, one per local directory.
Actual
The second open reuses the first window; the view always shows the first directory. The two clones are treated as the same project.
Suspected cause
The window/session is likely keyed by the git remote URL instead of the local absolute path, so distinct clones of the same remote collide.
Environment
- opencode: 1.17.9 (desktop)
- macOS: 26.5.1 (25F80), arm64
