Continue on does not provide a way to move to a different machine.

Testing #161875

There is no way to save session to move to different machine, when using the continue on command.

Edit Session: Save current session did not work for me.

@karthiknadig what did you see when you ran the store current session command? Do you have the Log (Edit Sessions) output channel contents by any chance?

I closed the original session, but when i try again this is what I see:

It seems to say no match, but it was the exact same branch.

Looks like your git remote in the destination was configured with an SSH URL but in the source it was configured with a HTTPS URL. Also, you're on the same branch but the HEAD SHA has changed. The edit session identity providers should be able to tolerate this sort of variance (even if it means we have decreased confidence that applying the edit session in this scenario will not cause conflicts).

Tracking this issue in #162120
