Visual Code Studio 1.108.1 released
Microsoft just released version 1.108.1 for VS Code. This isn't necessarily headline news, but it does address some issues that users were running into and confirms them as probable bugs in previous internal checks. The main focus seems to be on getting things right again after changes made during development.
One thing the team fixed was a terminal suggestion bug. At times, when users typed commands like "ls ../", the code would incorrectly suggest files. The team called this bug a regression, basically something that used to work but got messed up in a more recent version (though 108.1 itself didn't introduce it). Good thing they tracked it down and fixed it.
There was another issue related to updating hashes for the model, which sounds technical but wasn't described much. It seems this bug report was considered valid too, and Microsoft confirms it's now resolved in this latest version.
But wait a minute, some users are still complaining about problems with their terminal output appearing blurry or torn apart. That specific thing (text display issues) was fixed right alongside the suggestion problem in 108.1, apparently because they're connected bugs. So if you were seeing that visual weirdness, this update should correct it.
Additionally, a significant conflict issue was addressed: pressing Ctrl+Shift+G would activate an editor action intended to announce the cursor position, possibly for accessibility purposes. The team fixed the key override problem here too.
Beyond these specific problems, other fixes landed as well. Initially, hints did not hide properly when the space they occupied became too small, but this issue has now been resolved. Git's source control graph had some entries that wouldn't expand properly; those are behaving normally again. And there was a requirement for a Gemini 3 Pro image media type bug (not sure what exactly that means without more context) that's been addressed.
Interestingly, one user reported that the streaming feature in this new release caused their cursor to jump unexpectedly. Not typical buggy behavior per se, but apparently an annoyance worth fixing anyway. Happily, it is marked as resolved too, alongside everything else.
So, Microsoft says they've ironed out quite a few wrinkles with this update to 108.1, hopefully leading to a more comfortable coding experience for everyone who runs into these problems.
