Misc notes

Hi, I really like Zed!! I'm really missing a github extension for it to completely move from vscode. Any chance to implement it? thanks!

Might be worth noting the features you want most, or a link to the VS Code extension, for example. 🙂

I'm missing the most - just using the source control in vscode is great. being able to create a repo from a folder, being able to commit and push, color highlighting on .gitignore files, being able to see the remote, being able to create a new branch, see which branch I'm at. Being able to authenticate to github and create a private repo, being able to push to private repo from vscode.. maybe this is a duplicate of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/4367

color highlighting on .gitignore files

The git firefly extension support this :)

Yeah a lot of those are git-related and not GitHub specific :) The only GitHub specific thing in that list would be creating a new private GitHub repo. Creating a new repo inside a folder on your machine and pushing etc is all just git, so yeah that would come in nicely with the other issue.
