README

GitLens

GitLens supercharges the built-in Visual Studio Code Git capabilities. It helps you to visualize code authorship at a glance via Git blame annotations and code lens, seamlessly navigate and explore the history of a file or branch, gain valuable insights via powerful comparison commands, and so much more.

GitLens provides an unobtrusive blame annotation at the end of the current line, a status bar item showing the commit information (author and date, by default) of the current line, code lens showing the most recent commit and # of authors of the file and/or code block, and many commands for exploring commits and histories, comparing and navigating revisions, stash access, repository status, and more. GitLens is also highly customizable to meet your specific needs ? find code lens intrusive or the current line blame annotation distracting ? no problem, it is easy to turn them off or change how they behave.

Preview ? featuring blame annotations, code lens, status bar details, quick pick menus for navigation and exploration, compare with previous, and more

Known Issues

• If the Copy to * clipboard commands don't work on Linux – xclip needs to be installed. You can install it via sudo apt-get install xclip
• Visible whitespace causes issues (vscode issue #11485) with the expanded and compact blame annotation styles when using a non-monospace font – set "gitlens.advanced.toggleWhitespace.enabled": true if you are using a non-monospace font
