Git Configure

1. Install Git for yourself.
2. Add Git to system PATH or turn to 3.
3. Mannually set Git: Path to the abosulte path of your Git in VSCode.

Language Server Protocol Configure

Take many factors into consideration, my solution to LSP server is to install and configure clangd of LLVM project for VSCode.

1. Download latest LLVM released binaries from official site or manually build the projects from source code, install them to a propriate folder (marked as $LLVM_ROOT) afterwards.
2. Install clangd extension for vscode.
3. Open settings of extension clangd, set Clangd: Path to $LLVM_ROOT\bin\clangd.exe (type absolute path of clangd.exe here).
4. Modify settings.json of VSCode, append content as clangd.cfg.
5. Create .clangd file at the root path of workspace or at, edit as .clangd or whatever you want, for more information, browser official site of clangd.
6. For global configuration, edit and put the config file clangd/config.yaml into the user directory (defaultly %USERPROFILE%/AppData/Local on Windows) according to the help information provided by clangd. In addition, relevant config files .clang-tidy/.clang-format for clang-tidy/clang-format can be put into the root path of any workspace to implement global configuration.
