This is more of a Docker Desktop on Linux issue, but wanted to mention it here because I feel like maybe VS Code should issue a warning about it? Even repos to test dev containers like vscode-remote-try-node will not work, as Docker Desktop on Linux has an interesting file sharing conundrum. All the files in the container become owned by root, and cannot be edited. A workaround of setting
containerUser
and/orremoteUser
asroot
might not be a great idea. Maybe if VS Code detects that a Linux user is using Docker Desktop, it should warn about this, proposing some actions to take. Honestly though, who uses Docker Desktop on Linux? 😄The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
