Git Extensions for VS Code

This extension provides a command to browse the current project using GitExtensions, from the Explorer and the Editor. It also support Workspaces.

Features

Explorer

From the Explorer, when you right-click (anywhere; a file or not) and then select the Browse with Git Extensions, Git Extensions will open in Browse mode for your current project.

Editor

You can right-click anywhere in an editor to Browse with Git Extensions. Git Extensions will then open in Browse mode, based on the file you are focused in.

Compatibility

The extension works with single files, folders, and workspaces.

Requirements

1. You need to have Git Extensions installed
2. Git Extensions must be available globally (for Windows users: registered in the PATH environment variable)

Git Extensions should register itself in the PATH (checkbox during the installation process). If it did not and you need to manually add a variable to your PATH, I wrote the following article about that: How to add your PHP runtime directory to your Windows 10 PATH environment variable. Just change ...\php.exe with C:\Program Files (x86)\GitExtensions\GitExtensions.exe.

Extension Settings

There are no settings at this point.
