[Feature]: You should be able to connect to a github app instead of creating a new one for every Coolify instance

[shash7]

Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

Connect to a existing github app instead of creating a new one.

Why should this be worked on?

We deploy Coolify on various ec2 instances and for each new instance we'll need a seperate github app. This is unnecessary and adds a lot of overhead on our github account.

@andrasbacsai Can we put things we need for github app in coolify's env as optional value?

I understand the problem, but the main issue with having several Coolify instances with one GitHub App is that case the GitHub webhooks won't work. You can only have one URL set as a webhook URL.

But I know a great solution for this. It is what I will be working on soon, called Remote Docker Destinations inside Coolify. You could have one Coolify instance and manage several servers with only that one.

This is the ideal use case scenario for us. I represent a small agency and we manage multiple ec2 instances.

For the time being, we'll continue using Github apps.
