Readme Matching about vscode-vsce HOT 9 CLOSED

Looking at this a little more. The format for the URL must be:
https://github.com/user/repository/raw/branch/filename

With that format GitHub will redirect to the tokenized CDN link. As a working example...
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-MDTools/raw/master/images/Commands.gif
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-MDTools/raw/master/LICENSE.md

We seam to use:
return "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/${ match[1] }/${ match[2] }/master"

With the updated regex that will result in and this will 404 with no token etc.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Microsoft/vscode-MDTools/master

When we really want is to prefix links with:
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-MDTools/raw/master

This should be true for all content types e.g. LICENSE as well.

The link in the gallery for licence is however working.

I still can't see this working - if I look in the package the MD is still the same.

I also got some additional options - if we detect relative links to files in the project then we can use a mapping format to let the gallery load them (from the extensions sub-folder). I manually hacked my VSIX as follows....

    <Asset Type="images/SpellDemo1.gif" Path="extension/images/SpellDemo1.gif" Addressable="true" />
    <Asset Type="images/SpellDemo2.gif" Path="extension/images/SpellDemo2.gif" Addressable="true" />
    <Asset Type="images/SpellDemo3.gif" Path="extension/images/SpellDemo3.gif" Addressable="true" />

This lets you address the files with a link like htis for testing:
https://seanmcbreen.gallery.vsassets.io/_apis/public/gallery/publisher/seanmcbreen/extension/Spell/latest/assetbyname/images/SpellDemo1.gif

the Gallery is actually not working as expected here but I did want to share the syntax.

You can also get to the RAW source MD file with a link like this which could help for debug:
https://seanmcbreen.gallery.vsassets.io/_apis/public/gallery/publisher/seanmcbreen/extension/Spell/latest/assetbyname/Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Content.Details

@seanmcbreen give it another try

Unfortunately no luck on either MDTools or Spell-Check. Both published but the readme images did not work. In the VSIC there were no asset mapping tags and in the source Readme.
