Unable to login through GitHub

Open mcendu opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

On an account without 2FA, logging in for the first time requires a code to continue. There is no way to enter the verification code in the plugin, however, making login impossible.

Hey mcendu!

A sign in attempt requires further verification because we did not recognize your device. To complete the sign in, enter the verification code on the unrecognized device.

Device: Unknown Browser on Unknown Verification code: ******

An alternative is to use the account system on VSCode, but I am not sure how one should be implemented.

It could be a network problem (requesting Github is slow and could easily time out with a few redirects).

I wanted to support SOCKS5 and HTTP proxy directly(may only need for login), but there are few libraries for SOCKS5, so I didn't add this feature. The next step will be to consider supporting HTTP/HTTPS Proxy Only, Then users install software to transfer SOCKS to HTTP proxy.

@mcendu Oh, the vscode supports proxy setting. You can try to set proxy. Preferences->Settings->Application->proxy
