Support for WSL2 #2428

Hello!

I work extensively on Windows + WSL2 (like many of my colleagues), and all our repositories are hosted on WSL2. However, it's more convenient to have SourceGit installed on the host system (Windows). The implementation of graphical applications in WSL2 is janky.

We encounter two problems:

  • When the root Git folder is a WSL2 folder: \wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\user\root-git-folder, repository searches don't work.
  • While we can open a repository directly (\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\user\root-git-folder\repo1), the changes aren't updated in real time (unlike with a repository on Windows); we have to press F5 each time to refresh them.

Do you plan to add this functionality? That would be fantastic.

Thank you for your excellent product.
