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.

Does the production release of 1Password 8 fix this issue? I cannot find any release notes for us beta users that actually explain the changes between the latest beta and the new production build.

Thanks for the update floris_1P. I was hopeful that 80700090 was going to be a winner, but alas, not to be. My finger's still bobbing up and down every time I open up vscode...

@alexclst Yes, that is indeed a separate issue. We're working on a fix for that as well, stay tuned!

The latest update has a note about SSH agent in its release notes: "The SSH Agent no longer prompts you to unlock twice." I just wanted to mention that this item is not a fix for what I reported, and I hope the engineers are aware of that.

The same issue applies to running an ansible playbook on multiple hosts, which all share the same SSH key.

Hey folks 👋 We are aware of this and our engineering team is working on a fix! We'll post here when we have a further update! Thank you for reporting the behavior!

Hey all - problem still exists in build 80700049.

Confirmed. Same issue here, same combo of bits. Seeing it on both M1 and Intel Macs.

Hey! Looks like the same issue indeed. Good to see I'm not losing my marbles. Well, at least I'm not the only one seeing this at least. Perhaps the jury's still out on the other thing. ;) Thanks MrC .

I think https://1password.community/discussion/128607/biometrics-requested-for-each-repo-in-vs-code#latest reports the same issue, @jcostom .
