Connor Peet dc4cd84cdb plugins: enable installing plugins from marketplaces
Supports both Copilot marketplaces as well as Claude marketplaces (when configured).

Still todo:

- Currently enumerating plugins hit public GH APIs. But this would fail for private repos. In this case we should generalize the PluginInstallService to allow cloning the repo for the purpose of enumeration, not just install.
- Updating plugins still needs to be hooked up.
- Marketplace-installed plugins should get their own Discovery implementation rather than configuring the setting.
- We should normalize the type of plugin a bit so it flows from the marketplace type rather than getting re-discovered from disk.

Git integration for Visual Studio Code

Notice: This extension is bundled with Visual Studio Code. It can be disabled but not uninstalled.

Features

See Git support in VS Code to learn about the features of this extension.

API

The Git extension exposes an API, reachable by any other extension.

  1. Copy src/api/git.d.ts to your extension's sources;

  2. Include git.d.ts in your extension's compilation.

  3. Get a hold of the API with the following snippet:

    const gitExtension = vscode.extensions.getExtension<GitExtension>('vscode.git').exports;
    const git = gitExtension.getAPI(1);
    

    Note: To ensure that the vscode.git extension is activated before your extension, add extensionDependencies (docs) into the package.json of your extension:

    "extensionDependencies": [
    	"vscode.git"
    ]
