Share the same virtual machine across multiple client machines

[yitzhakbg]

Raised this on Slack .
Recreating a new VM for the same workspace is unnecessarily expensive. Also, contents of the same workspace aren't in sync.
Seems relatively simple to use the same VM across different sessions, at least between Mac and Linux machines.
Could it be done?
Thanks

Hi @yitzhakbg yes this is possible :) You can specify the VM by using the --machine flag in up. First list your VMs with devpod machine list then specify the machine name when you run devpod up --machine .... Let me know if that helps!
