Thank you for reaching out. I get we could do the above which is indeed what I have been doing (by hand though and not REST API). However I feel that it is a bug that one cannot make a new wokrspace using the gui and correctly synch from git into that (doing this by hand add extra work and is an operational risk - I would imagine that one develober foregot this and merge back into main - the develober could have been changing just a data pipeline). I have made a incident to the support and they are looking further into it.
Thank you very much for your input - I have accepted as a Solution
Regards
Kim
