Our instance of Github Enterprise is setup to require access via SSH. We also use an alias in ~/.ssh/config to make the git clone command shorter, something like:
Clone the repo using git clone gitsrv:MyOrg/cool_repo
Open the folder in VS code and go to the PR tile
The plugin is stuck at the "You have not yet signed in with GitHub" screen.
The plugin logs has these messages:
2024-09-15 19:45:10.790 [info] GitHubServer> Received fallback response from the server: dial tcp: lookup gitsrv on 10.10.10.10:53: no such host
2024-09-15 19:45:10.790 [warning] GitHubServer> No response from host https://gitsrv/MyOrg/cool_repo: Unexpected token 'd', "dial tcp: "... is not valid JSON
2024-09-15 19:45:10.790 [warning] No remotes found. The following remotes are missing: origin, upstream
The plugin however works fine if we use the full server name (git clone gitsrv.full.domain.com:MyOrg/cool_repo). BTW, also works with the git@ prepended to the hostname.
Hypothesis
The plugin attempts to convert the SSH hostname/alias directly into the HTTP URL to the server. Perhaps it could attempt to resolve it via the SSH config file first? For e.g., this (on Unix like systems at least) seems to get the right name:
