Remote editing by SSH?

[aoyulong]

Hi, is there any way to edit the files on the remote server by SSH login? I usually use the terminal emulator such as Xshell. But it will be wonderful if vscode integrates this function.

I think #7320 already covers this feature. It is currently in the backlog.

Dup of #7320. Thanks @ZombieProtectionAgency

@aoyulong and anyone else searching for this - maybe this will help in the meantime?

I know this has been closed for a while, but is this really a dup of #7320 (which is marked as a dup of #6161 , reading a file from stdin)?

If anything, vscode should support mounting the project root via ssh to enable a normal editing experience, which seems fairly different from streaming a file over stdin.

I agree with @DrRibosome. It would be super helpful to be able to ssh to a system, select the root of the project, and have it feel as though I'm working on something locally.
