- # GitLens
-
- Provides Git information (most recent commit, # of authors) in CodeLens, on-demand inline blame annotations, a blame explorer, and commands to compare changes with the working tree or previous versions.
-
- ## Features
-
- Provides two CodeLens on code blocks:
- - **Recent Change** - author and date of the most recent check-in
- > Clicking on the CodeLens opens a **Blame explorer** with the commits and changed lines in the right pane and the commit (file) contents on the left
- - **Authors** - number of authors of a block and the most prominent author (if there are more than one)
- > Clicking on the CodeLens toggles Git blame annotations on/off
-
