Hi,

Checked on the source code. the reference of Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading is higher then the installed version of VS2017.
able to rebuild the package with the correct dll?

I got this error on VS Professional 2017 Version 15.9.28

Here is how I fixed it.

1. go to nugget https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading/16.5.132
2. download package. change extension to .zip and unpack it
3. find your extensions folder e.g. [user]/AppData/Local/Microsoft/VisualStudio/[random value]/Extensions/[random value that contains GitLab Extension] note: you will see GitLab dll files so you know you are in the right place
4. copy the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading.dll into your GitLab extension folder (above)
5. restart VisualStudio and the error should be gone

But It's will get a new issue:
System.MissingMethodException: 找不到方法:“Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading.JoinableTaskFactory Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.ThreadHelper.get_JoinableTaskFactory()”。
在 GitLab.TeamFoundation.Sync.GitLabPublishSection.Initialize(Object sender, SectionInitializeEventArgs e)
在 Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.TeamExplorer.Framework.TeamExplorerSectionHost.Initialize(Object context)

I was able to connect and clone my GitLab repository using the GitHub extension.
