Git missing in VS Code – No source control providers
I just installed Visual Studio Code 1.17 and opened a Git repository folder. When entering the Source Control tab I see a message "There are no active source control providers". I thought Git was baked into VSCode!?
To make matters worse, when I attempt to install additional SCM providers there is no option for Git. How do I get my Git back!?
Solution
What helped me is setting the value of git.path setting to the full path of my git.exe file. After that I was able to see the git logo:
