View a Git Graph of your repository, and easily perform Git actions from the graph. Configurable to look the way you want!
- Git Graph View:
- Display:
- Local & Remote Branches
- Local Refs: Heads, Tags & Remotes
- Uncommitted Changes
- Perform Git Actions (available by right clicking on a commit / branch / tag):
- Create, Checkout, Rename, Delete, Merge, Push, Pull & Rebase branches
- Add, Delete & Push tags
- Checkout, Cherry Pick, Merge & Revert commits
- Reset current branch to commit
- Reset & Clean uncommitted changes
- View annotated tag details (name, email, date and message)
- Copy commit hashes, tag names & branch names to the clipboard
- View commit details and file changes by clicking on a commit. On the Commit Details View you can:
- View the Visual Studio Code Diff of any file change by clicking on it.
- Open the current version of any file that was affected in the commit.
- Copy the path of any file that was affected in the commit to the clipboard.
- Click on any HTTP/HTTPS url in the commit body to open it in your default web browser.
- Compare any two commits by clicking on a commit, and then CTRL/CMD clicking on another commit. On the Commit Comparison View you can:
- View the Visual Studio Code Diff of any file change between the selected commits by clicking on it.
- Open the current version of any file that was affected between the selected commits.
- Copy the path of any file that was affected between the selected commits to the clipboard.
- Code Review - Keep track of which files you have reviewed in the Commit Details & Comparison Views.
- Code Review's can be performed on any commit, or between any two commits (not on Uncommitted Changes).
- When a Code Review is started, all files needing to be reviewed are bolded. When you view the diff / open a file, it will then be un-bolded.
- Code Reviews persist across Visual Studio Code sessions. They are automatically closed after 90 days of inactivity.
- View uncommitted changes, and compare the uncommitted changes with any commit.
- Filter the branches shown in Git Graph using the 'Branches' dropdown menu. The options for filtering the branches are:
- Show All branches

git-graph.customBranchGlobPatterns)
- Fetch from Remote(s) (available on the top control bar)
- Find Widget allows you to quickly find one or more commits containing a specific phrase (in the commit message / date / author / hash, branch or tag names).
- Repository Settings Widget allows you to view, add, edit, delete, fetch & prune remotes of the repository.
