Cannot set default github repo during docker build about jupyterlab-github HOT 3 OPEN

Sorry for the slow reply @alexlicohen. If this is still a problem, there are a few things we can check:

1. Does your settings file work in a non-dockerized setting (e.g, just running jupyter lab)?
2. In the dockerized lab, do you see your settings when you open them in the Advanced Settings Editor?
3. Are there any schema validation errors, either in the notebook server logs, or in the browser Javascript console?

I am also working on something similar, Instead of going to advanced settings and setting a default repo every time the server in launched, I want to set default repo in the server configuration file or in dockerfile (image) so its loaded directly as default when server notebook in launched. If someone has an input, it would be very helpful !

The settings should be written to overrides.json file in an appropriate directory, see jupyterlab/jupyterlab-plugin-playground#26 for an example.
