Meaning of clock icon in VS Code source control
What does it mean when a blue clock icon is displayed over the VS Code source control icon? When I run the git status command, I get the message: "nothing to commit, working tree clean." I checked the VS Studio documentation, but I couldn't find anything on this topic.
Solution
- The clock icon is the progress marker, or 'VSCode is still working on this...' marker.
- The designer's expectation is that this would be a momentary notification, not a long one.
- When you open a new directory for
the first time, but do not have a
.gitignoreset up, this means it wants to slurp yournode_modulesor directory of intermediate object files and such. This takes a long time, or forever if it crashes and restarts, and so you keep seeing the icon. - Add a
.gitignorefile. - Restart VS Code if necessary. If you still have trouble, consider sacrificing a live chicken over the CPU (reports say a Rhode Island Red works, but YMMV).
