Hide last commit details on branch picker in VS Code


Some time ago (circa VS Code 1.99), the branch picker popup started showing the last commit in each branch. It makes the popup very busy, at least with the theme I'm using.

Any way to hide those last commit lines in the settings.json?

busy picker

(I'm not 100% that was the changed that was introduced that made it busy, but I know it was cleaner before.)


Solution

  • See https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_99#_reference-picker-improvements

    The setting you want to toggle is git.showReferenceDetails.
