it shouldn't be needed, but, it has nice stuff you should use anyways
by the way, if you're on windows, don't forget to install git
https://git-scm.com/
vscode uses this to do all the git "stuff"
i have both but how can i solve this problem
try restarting vscode
also, did you initialize a git in the repo?
i have initialized a git repo
but only these options are showing
try initializing a git on that folder
you do it from the "welcome" page
or press ctrl+shift+p
done
that should let you enable the button
if it doesn't, it should when you restart
should i reinstall vscode ?
i don't think that that makes a difference
