This error occurs when doing simple checkout using your extension UI (graph):

I'm on Windows 11 Home.

Thanks for the report. This was caused by the presence of 's in almost all commands, which seems to not be supported by Windows (#4). Fix now available with v0.1.13. This means that this extension probably didn't work at all on Windows (non-WSL) for at least 6 months?? I thought we had some Windows users but apparently not.

Not sure in how bad of a state Windows support is in general right now, I guess I'll borrow myself a win laptop soon and see if other things break too.

Edit: Tried on Windows now, everything's smooth. Hopefully I won't break things again.

There are Windows users of your extension but many people just don’t like to deal with these Github issues because the VSCode have so many extensions and many developers are reluctant to respond to issues and this demotivates making new issues/requests, especially when there are lot of extensions of the same type. If someone doesn’t like this extension, then he just moves on to another one and that’s it.
