Topic: Workflow for vscode local clone of a package

I have seen somewhere that you can make a local development clone of a julia package directly from the julia environment/vscode. Instructions may have been embedded in a 3 1/2 hour juliacon video. I haven't been able to find documentation on this functionality. Not sure what the feature's name is. The search terms I tried are too general. All the written tutorials seem to be about making a new package, not maintaining an existing one.

Can someone point me to some documentation please.
Cheers...

If anyone knows of any good tutorials please add a comment.
