3. Deployment Process

Once you've set up the prerequisites, you can begin deploying your extension by following these steps:

1. Commit your changes
   Make sure all changes are committed in your local repository.

2. Generate the changelog
   Run the following command to generate a changelog using cog:

3. Package your extension
   Use the vsce tool to package your extension:

4. Push your changes
   Push your committed changes to the remote repository:

5. Push the tag
   After pushing the changes, also push the tag to trigger the publishing action:
