Snapshot losing important Gitpod env vars #9804
Description
Bug description
When opening a Gitpod snapshot, the value of GITPOD_REPO_ROOT changes.
Original workspace:
GITPOD_REPO_ROOT=/workspace/<my_project_name>
After snapshot:
GITPOD_REPO_ROOT=/workspace
When I check it https://gitpod.io/workspaces
The bottom (original workspace) displays the correct repo it belongs to - https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-sveltejs
The top (snapshot of workspace) displays the wrong one - undefined
Steps to reproduce
- Open any repo on Gitpod
- Run in terminal
printenv | grep GITPOD_REPO_ROOT - You should see
/workspace/<your_repo_name> - Create a new snapshot
- Open that snapshot.
- Run in terminal
printenv | grep GITPOD_REPO_ROOT - You would see that now it's only
/workspace
Workspace affected

Expected behavior

Anything else?
This affects DrupalPod project, that uses this variable to make sure we're in the right directory of the project.
If this is helpful, there might be other unexpected changes to some of the variables?
I tested this with https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-sveltejs
Running printenv | grep GITPOD in terminal
