I'm using msys2 git version 2.6.2 on windows10

But always display Initialize git repository in GIT pane.

I'm guessing code runs git rev-parse --show-toplevel but returns /c/ prefixed paths.

It seems bingo! When I make junction link like below.

cd C:\
mklink /J C C:\

code works fine with git.

So, vscode should convert path on msys2 into C:\ prefixed paths.
