No GitHub repositories found when using SSH aliases
Describe the bug When using SSH config aliases (see the example below), the GitHub Actions extension returns the error message "No GitHub repositories found". SSH aliases are often used when a user has multiple GitHub accounts that have separate SSH keys.
This only occurs when using an alias that does not include github.com in the alias name. If I were to change the alias name to, for example, personal.github.com, as well as the remote, then the extension works without issue.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create an alias in your SSH config file (e.g., ~/.ssh/config) with any name that does not include
github.com. - Switch your origin remote to use the alias (e.g., git@alias:username/repo.git)
- Reload VSCode
- Switch to the GitHub Actions extension and see "No GitHub repositories found"
- Switch your origin remote back to a standard "github.com" alias
- Reload VSCode
- Switch to the GitHub Actions extension and see standard functionality.
Expected behavior GitHub Actions would work regardless of the SSH config alias.
Extension Version
v0.27.2

Thank you, I renamed my alias and reloaded VSCode (<- important) and it solved the issue!
This is fab, thank you for the debug information. This is indeed my issue.
