Why does it require permissions to all URLs?

Hi folks. First of all, thank you very much for the extension, it really saved me a lot of time already. Amazing work!

With that said, I was wondering why the permissions is set to all_urls since the extension is specifically for Gitlab. Is there a specific reason for that?

Regards!

Hey @ygordanniel ! Glad to see that you found the extension useful.

The reason that the extension requires permission to all_urls is that the extension also works on self-hosted instances of GitLab.

Thank You and do spread the word about SpanTree !

@ygordanniel You can use the workaround mentioned in #35 if you want to restrict the extension access
