Description

I'm using this extension with VSCode Insider and I keep receiving this notification.

Image

What I think might be causing this issue is because I have two git accounts configured in my macos using Git Credential Manager. One for personal use and one for work use. And because of that my remote origin URL will be having username@github.com in my work related repos. is that a reason?

I have this extension working in VSCode for my personal repos for which remote url doesn't contain username.

I'm using VS Code for personal repos and VSCode insider for work repos.

Here is my VSCode Insider Details:
