VSCode displaying blue chain link icon in the gutter on every line


blue chain link by every line

This icon appears by every line on every new file I create in VSCode. When I save the file, the icon disappears from every line, except the first:

blue chain link on first line

This is not exclusive to C++, it happens with any file.

There's no tooltip when I hover over the icon, and nothing happens when I click it. What does it represent?


Solution

  • Someone reported the same "issue"; this icon seems to be contributed by the PostgreSQL extension.
