Cannot input initial settings using Insiders build

See original GitHub issue

System

Visual Studio Code Version : 1.4.0-insider (build 2016-07-22) Code Sync Settings Version : 1.5.0 Operating System : Windows 10 (x64, Version 1511, Build 10586.494)

Steps to Reproduce

Open Visual Studio Code - Insiders
Open the command palette.
Choose Sync: Download Settings.
Extension opens browser (GitHub Settings).
Command palette is no longer open.

Details

Which means I cannot input the access token or repository during initial configuration of the extension. Not entirely sure this is an issue with the extension itself, but the command palette auto-closing seems like expected behaviour (from a quick google search).

@shanalikhan A suggestion on the configuration process:

Add a command palette entry called Sync: Open Settings
This entry then opens the .json where both the token and gist repo are stored.
Have the extension automatically open this file if the settings are not valid. Either because they haven’t been configured, or if the extension cannot access the gist repo (due to the token being changed for example).

You are able to add instructions to the top of the .json via a comment block.
