@FrankHuy I haven't been able to reproduce this yet - how are you opening the settings of the extension? Is it from clicking a button the the "GitHub Pull Requests" view, from running a command, or something else?

[nschonni]

Also seeing this now. When selecting "GitHub Pull Requests: Configure Remotes" an error alert pops up with "command 'pr.configureRemotes' not found"
Looking at the logs there is the followinng message

[Info] /Users/nschonni/.ssh/config: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/nschonni/.ssh/config'
[Info] Looking for git repository

This is on OSX though

[nschonni]

Just started happening, so it would be something in the 0.11 release

[iceldotme]

I'm having the same issue.

[nschonni]

It started working for me again with the 0.11.1 release

[RMacfarlane]

yeah, I was also able to repro yesterday on 0.11.0, should have been fixed with https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-pull-request-github/commit/999b7eeb2e6362e36e8294a27d80fdced9ddd3fe

However, the original bug report was for 0.10.0, which didn't have the issue that 0.11.0 did. I'm going to tentatively close this since I can no longer reproduce this in 0.11.1, but please let me know if you encounter this again. Thanks everyone!

facing the same issue on vs code 1.39.2 version

Same issue on Arch, can't open any settings or configs. Just gives me the message as OP described.
Please reopen this

For Arch users or others using the OSS build of VSCode, @RMacfarlane recently mentioned that you will need to run code with a flag:

code --enable-proposed-api GitHub.vscode-pull-request-github

Alternatively, you can edit your product.json file (code installs this to /usr/lib/code/product.json).

"extensionAllowedProposedApi": [
    "GitHub.vscode-pull-request-github"
]

This issue is documented in the wiki and in other extensions' documentation. I have updated the Arch Wiki with this information and consolidated related errors under a single troubleshooting heading to help users understand the effect of the OSS build missing Microsoft's product.json.

What got this working for me was adding an entry to ~/.vscode/argv.json:

{
    // Allow Github Pull Request to work
    "enable-proposed-api": [
        "GitHub.vscode-pull-request-github"
    ]
}
