git push never completes when ssh key not named ~/.ssh/id_rsa

• VSCode Version: 1.51.1 (stable) and 1.52.0 (Insiders)
• OS Version: Win 10 - 10.0.19041 build 19041
• WSL 2: Ubuntu 20.04

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create new git commit
2. Push using the built in Source Control panel Push never completes if ssh key is other name than ~/.ssh/id_rsa. SSH key is loaded and push works as expected in the terminal from the same session. But VSCode can’t complete git push. Renaming the ssh key to id_rsa solves the issue.

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

• Unfortunately, I can’t test this as I only have a Linux based dev environment running in WSL 2 (on Win 10) so the WSL extension has to be enabled.

When you rename your key… how do you configure git to use it, such that it works correctly in the terminal?

It works correctly in the terminal.

same problem +1 I’m using WSL2, and everything goes fine when I changed the key name to id_rsa… Maybe vscode could inherit the SSH environment from bash?
