Biometrics Requested for Each Repo in VS Code

Since yesterday's 1Password 8 beta update it appears that in VS Code workspaces where I have multiple git repositories, VS Code is causing 1Password's SSH Agent to prompt for biometrics for each one separately. Before this update, it only caused the prompt to come up once. This is a serious usability regression in the SSH Agent. I just wanted to alert 1Password staff to this.

    Gang,

    I've been in love with 1P8 up until this release. This one is annoying. Really annoying. Since 80700041 hit my 2 Macs, every time I launch VS Code, and it goes to look at GitHub repos to see if things are up to date, it wants me to place my finger on the sensor for every.single.repo in the workspace I've got loaded. Yes, I counted. 13 repos loaded? 13 times. It's awful. I even tried tricks like launching vscode from inside an iTerm session that already had an authenticated agent session, and it still did it.

    Build 28 definitely did not do this. 41 is doing this on both M1 and Intel. Please, make it stop. ;) Thanks for all the great code, folks.

    And for the record, my .zshrc concludes with.....


    export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=~/.1password/agent.sock

    which is a symlink to....


    ~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock
