Copied path of staged file includes backslashes
Type: Bug
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open VSCode on Windows, and connect to a Remote host via SSH
- Use "Open Folder" for a folder outside of the user's home directory, containing a Git repository
- Make some changes to a file and run "git-add"
- Once the file is staged, open it in the editor from the Source Control plugin of VSCode
- Hover over the editor tab for this file, or do a "Copy Path"
Actual results: The path of the staged file includes backslashes, e.g., \path\to\file
Expected results: The path of the staged file includes "normal" slashed, e.g., /path/to/file

@gavriil-deshaw, are you still able to reproduce this issue? Can you reproduce this issue using the WSL extension or it only reproduces when using the SSH extension? Can you reproduce the issue when you open a git repository inside the home directory? If you would share a recording (https://gifcap.dev) that would be really helpful as well. Thanks!

Happy Coding!
@lszomoru yes, I am still facing this issue. I'm not sure about WSL; I think I had tested it when I initially raised this issue and I was seeing the same behavior as with SSH. No, the issue only happens if the repository is outside of the home directory. Although, as you can see from the recordings, even within the home directory I get a different path depending on whether a file is staged or not - not staged gives /u/<username>/..., whereas staged gives ~/....
In home directory:
In
/var/tmp (same as with any directory outside of the home dir):
