Summary

vscode/package.json:

  • keywords (new): git, history, diff, blame, time-lapse, version-control, the same as the Visual Studio extension's <Tags> in source.extension.vsixmanifest. The VS Code Marketplace shows these as the listing's tags and uses them for search.
  • categories: Other -> SCM Providers. The Visual Studio listing's category, "Tools", isn't one of VS Code's allowed categories.

This is held for 1.1.3: the v1.1.3 tag pushed after #17 merged was removed and its release run cancelled before anything was published, so 1.1.3 will be tagged after this merges.

Test plan

  • vsce package accepts the manifest; the packaged extension.vsixmanifest has <Tags>git,history,diff,blame,time-lapse,version-control</Tags> and <Categories>SCM Providers</Categories>
  • VS Code VSIX check packages

…SCM category

Add keywords matching the Tags in source.extension.vsixmanifest (git,
history, diff, blame, time-lapse, version-control), which the VS Code
Marketplace uses as the listing's tags and for search, and change the
category from Other to SCM Providers. "Tools", the Visual Studio
listing's category, is not one of VS Code's allowed categories.
