Description

I have followed the instructions here: https://docs.continue.dev/customize/context-providers#gitlab-merge-request for adding GitLab Merge Requests as a Context Provider and have successfully verified my personal access token.

Diving deeper into the code [continue/core/context/providers/GitLabMergeRequestContextProvider.ts], the getApi() function restricts the custom gitlab domain to be of a secure (https) connection but not unsecure http connection.

To reproduce
