Source?

[GitMensch]

The README states that this repo is for additional docs and providing feedback; this repo is under CC BY 4.0; "the code" is under MIT. The "binary" extension vsix, is - as other extensions from Microsoft - distributed under "use for whatever you like but only with Microsoft VS code binaries" https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items/GitHub.remotehub/license

So... where is the actual code of the extension for review? Is the code under MIT (so also could be used to self-build for a self-build version of vscode or for use with Theia; possibly be extended/modified to be usable with other git hosting sites than Github)? If not: what does LICENSE-CODE applies to?

Please answer and be specific in the README, preventing these questions in the future.
Thanks!

Hi, thank you for your feedback!

Yes, this repo is under CC by 4.0 (the LICENSE file in this repo).

The LICENSE-CODE in this repo covers any code or snippets included in this repository itself. I have updated the README to help clarify this.

The code for the Remote Repositories extension is under the final license you link: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items/GitHub.remotehub/license. The repository is open source, but the code for the extension itself is not available.

Thank you for making the current state clear.
... next question - actually a feature request: Can Microsoft please "open source" the code for the extension itself?

Thank you for the interest! As a GitHub published extension tied to the GitHub service, open sourcing is not currently on the extension roadmap.
