Issues in the GitHub Issues tree show only their title, with no way to surface the issue number — unlike pull requests, which already support githubPullRequests.showPullRequestNumberInTree. This adds the equivalent setting for issues.

Changes

  • Setting — New githubIssues.showIssueNumberInTree boolean (default false), declared in package.json/package.nls.json with the key SHOW_ISSUE_NUMBER_IN_TREE in settingKeys.ts.
  • Tree rendering (issuesView.ts) — When enabled, prefix issue labels with #<number>: , matching the PR tree format. Applied to both the default label and the current/checked-out issue label.
  • Reactivity — Added the setting to the existing onDidChangeConfiguration handler so the tree refreshes on toggle.

With the setting enabled:

#173: Implement payment group control process
#174: Fix AP accrual posting issue
