Testing #7248

Not sure if this is as designed or not.

  • basically all the CLI steps in Test: Dev container image metadata #7248
  • open a new window
  • run the action Dev Container: Attach to Running Container...
  • pick the container with -workspace- in its name
  • the extensions chrmarti.regex or ms-vscode.hexeditor don't get installed
  • I've also tried the action Dev Container: Open Folder in Container and picked the workspace folder. Also in this case, the two vscode extensions were not installed:

Edit: The extensions I was expecting only got installed when executing Rebuild Container:
