To edit files that require sudo permissions using the VS Code ssh tool, you can follow these steps:

  1. Connect to your remote server using the VS Code ssh tool.
  2. Open the terminal in VS Code.
  3. Type sudo nano <file_path> in the terminal and press Enter. This will open the file in the nano text editor with sudo permissions.
  4. Make the necessary changes to the file and save the changes.
  5. Close the nano editor by pressing Ctrl + X, then Y, and finally press Enter.
  6. The file is now updated with the changes you made.

Note: You can replace nano with your preferred text editor, such as vim or emacs.
