Can't install a previous version of Visual Studio Code

[kamiyubidan]

Scoop can't install a previous version of Visual Studio Code. I tried changing the version number and hash in the manifest manually but it still did not install.

Thanks.

$ scoop uninstall vscode
$ cd ~/scoop/buckets/extras/bucket
# Go back before vscode was upgrade to 1.60.0
$ git checkout de8f507374cfc1cc40f87ebd89a17f053077942d^ -- vscode.json
$ scoop install vscode
# Prevent upgrading
$ scoop hold vscode
# Restore git repo to latest version
$ git checkout -f

There is idea to automate this restoring #3894

Handling for VSCode manifests was changed recently (converted from non-portable to portable). So it is not advisable to generate an older manifest from the current one.

As you mentioned, generating old manifest from git history is a better idea, which is tracked in #3894.
