Major Enhancements

Workspace startup page shows more detailed advancement steps

The page that shows the advancements of a workspace startup is now showing 7 new steps when waiting for the workspaces to start. This provides a better progress feedback and more details to troubleshoot if something goes wrong.

Support connecting to an open-vsx instance with a TLS certificate signed by an trusted CA Backported to 7.67

Eclispe Che workspaces allow to specify enterprise Certificate Authorities (CAs) that workspaces can trust. (trusted CA certificates are mounted in every workspace /public-certs folder). With this enhancement VS Code is now configured to trust any TLS certificates signed by these CAs and, as a consequence, can use extensions from open-vsx instances that use these trusted certificates.

Major Bug Fixes

Fix GitHub authentication errors in VS Code

Before this update, when the developer tried to authenticate with GitHub (to clone a repository or to use a GitHub extension for example) but the GitHub token didn't exist or had expired, the operation may fail due to a Invalid character in header content ("Authorization") error. With this update, when no valid GitHub token is found, the user is informed with the instructions to generate it.

Fix git push when using a VS Code based empty workspace

Before this update, when a developer started an empty workspace (not linked to a specific git repository) or a Che sample, any consequent try to run git push would fail due to an authorization problem, even if the developer had pre-configured a personal access token for the git service. With this update, configured personal access tokens are mounted even in empty workspaces or samples workspaces so that git push will use it to authenticate to the git service.

Fix VisualStudio Code embedded terminal delayed echo of typed characters Backported to 7.67

Before this update, when using Visual Studio Code embedded terminal, developers may experience a delay between the moment when the characers were typed and when they were displayed in the terminal. With this update we are changing the default GPU acceleration to canvas as that solves the problem with the delayed characters.
