To install Visial Studio Code on Debian, different sources advise using different repositories:
- https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux advises to use https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/code , whereas
- https://wiki.debian.org/VisualStudioCode advises to use https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/vscode .
Any difference as far as the latest version on amd64 is concerned? The latest versions in the two pools seem the same (code_1.89.1-1715060508_amd64.deb at the time these lines are written), though the directories https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/code/pool/main/c/code and https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/vscode/pool/main/c/code are different (as of now):
Any official rationale or any official reason for having two places? After all, Microsoft could offer only one with all the files.
PS. Visual Studio Code is NOT the same as Visual Studio.
