I am not able to save any files on my remote server with VSCode Remote SSH because I am not a root user.

I&#39;ve followed the [official documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh) about how to set up ssh with SSH config file but even if my user as sudo privileges, I can&#39;t find any options in VSCode to save with sudo.




here is my SSH config file `/Users/geoff/.ssh/config`:
```
Host gcpmain
    User geoff
    HostName &lt;IP_ADDRESS&gt;
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gc_rsa
```

Obviously, when I try to save any files that require sudo I have this expected error message:
```
Failed to save &#39;default&#39;: Unable to write file (NoPermissions
 (FileSystemError): Error: EACCES: permission denied, open 
&#39;/etc/nginx/sites-available/default&#39;)
```

Is there any way that I can force VSCode to save as sudo?
Thanks a lot for your answers! :)
