The VS Code portion of code-server lives under [`coder/vscode`](https://github.com/coder/vscode). To update VS Code for code-server, follow these steps:
1. `git checkout -b vscode-update` - Create a new branch locally based off `main`
2. `git fetch upstream` - Fetch upstream (VS Code)'s latest branches
3. `git merge upstream/release/1.64` - Merge it locally

Refer to the [contributing docs](https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/CONTRIBUTING#version-updates-to-code) for information on how to update Code within code-server.
