@ibuziuk It is a regression after dropping the Devfile V1 support and removing the devfile-converter package https://github.com/eclipse-che/che-dashboard/pull/1090.

It happens because che-server still returns Devfile V1 with the proper branch for a project:

But che-dashboard lost the ability to convert Devfile V1 into Devfile V2 without the devfile-converter package and using just a default Devfile.

I am sure that we should fix it on the che-server side. WDYT?
