Summary

The VS Code Marketplace already has an extension named git-time-lapse-vscode, and names must be unique there, so the package is renamed to amd-git-time-lapse-vscode.

  • vscode/package.json: name -> amd-git-time-lapse-vscode. displayName stays "Git Time-Lapse View" and publisher stays AMD.
  • vscode/package-lock.json: the two matching name fields (top level and packages[""]).
  • README.md: the install command now matches vsce's output name, amd-git-time-lapse-vscode-*.vsix.

Not changed: the CI artifact name git-time-lapse-vscode and the release asset git-time-lapse-<version>-vscode.vsix are independent of the package name, so releases are unaffected.

Effect on users: the extension ID becomes AMD.amd-git-time-lapse-vscode (it was AMD.git-time-lapse-vscode in 1.1.0 and 1.1.1). Anyone who installed 1.1.x from a .vsix will get it as a separate extension and should uninstall the old one, as with the 1.0.x -> 1.1.0 change.

Test plan

  • Local vsce package produces amd-git-time-lapse-vscode-1.1.1.vsix, whose manifest has Id="amd-git-time-lapse-vscode" Publisher="AMD"
  • VS Code VSIX check builds and packages

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The Marketplace already has an extension named git-time-lapse-vscode,
and extension names must be unique there, so rename the package (and
the matching name fields in package-lock.json). vsce now emits
amd-git-time-lapse-vscode-<version>.vsix; the README install command is
updated to match. The extension ID becomes AMD.amd-git-time-lapse-vscode.
