Overview

This issue outlines the proposed experience to manage your cloned repositories on your machine through Dev Home. Through this view you can see the list of repositories you have cloned through Dev Home, point Dev Home at repos you may have cloned outside of Dev Home, and any new repos you clone through Dev Home are automatically added to this list.

The Problem

Today a user can clone repositories onto their machine through Dev Home, but afterwards, there is no way for them to check which repos are cloned already, recently updated, or do any sort of management or launching of those repos.

Scenario

# Scenarios
1 As a user, I have a repo management page in Dev Home dedicated to listing the repositories I have cloned to my machine. New repos I clone through machine configuration appear here, and I can point to existing repositories on my machine.
2 As a user, I can take action on my repos from within Dev Home such as opening them in my chosen tool or create a widget for that repo.
3 As a user, I can see relevant information about my repos from within Dev Home such as last updated, file location, and repository source (e.g. GitHub or Azure)
