VSCode settings.json

settings.json.md

Problem: cannot use GitHub CoPilot in ssh remote sessions.

Solution: add this to .vscode/settings.json (e.g. on the remote server)

"remote.extensionKind": {
        "GitHub.copilot": [
            "ui"
        ],
        "GitHub.copilot-chat": [
            "ui"
        ],
    },
