 ### Added
 
 - Workspaces can keep using git while nobody is connected, e.g. for AI agents. With the new `GIT_SSH_TO_HTTPS`
   context option (on by default when `SSH_AGENT_FORWARDING` is `false`), git in the workspace uses https instead
   of ssh for the workspace's hosts, with credentials that the dev container provides. `GIT_SSH_TO_HTTPS_HOSTS`
   adds hosts and explicit rewrites. See
-  [Run Workspaces Unattended](https://devpod.curityio.net/developing-in-workspaces/unattended-workspaces).
