VSCode frequently prompting signing request #473

Every five minutes or so, I'm getting this pop-up from SecretAgent asking me to authenticate a signing request.

I know I haven't provided much detail here, frankly I'm not aware how to debug and provide information for this sort of issue. Any guidance or direction to help me getting past this?

If you’re using some git integration in VSC, it’s probably just checking the remote for new commits every 5m. I’d recommend using a non-authentication-required key for that.

@maxgoedjen I had the same hunch and your suggestion is the one I followed. Future readers, I advise you using a non-authentication-required key for SSH authentication between you and your SCM!
