GitLens

GitLens is an open-source extension for Visual Studio Code created by Eric Amodio. While GitLens is generously offered to everyone free of charge, if you find it useful please consider supporting it.

GitLens simply helps you understand code better. Quickly glimpse into whom, why, and when a line or code block was changed. Jump back through history to gain further insights as to how and why the code evolved. Explore the history and evolution of a codebase.

Here are just some of the features that GitLens provides,

• a Repositories view to visualize, navigate, and explore Git repositories
• a File History view to visualize, navigate, and explore the revision history of the current file
• a Line History view to visualize, navigate, and explore the revision history of the selected lines of current file
• an on-demand Results view to navigate and explore commits, histories, and searches, or visualize comparisons between branches, tags, commits, and more
• authorship code lens showing the most recent commit and # of authors to the top of files and/or on code blocks
• an unobtrusive current line blame annotation at the end of the line
• on-demand gutter blame annotations, including a heatmap, for the whole file
• on-demand gutter heatmap annotations to show how recently lines were changed, relative to all the other changes in the file and to now (hot vs. cold)
• detailed blame information accessible via [hovers](#hovers 'Jump to Hovers)
• on-demand recent changes annotations to highlight lines changed by the most recent commit
• a status bar blame annotation showing author and date for the current line
• commit search — by message, author, filename, commit id, or code changes
• many powerful commands for exploring commits and histories, comparing and navigating revisions, stash access, repository status, etc
• and so much more

GitLens is powerful, feature rich, and also highly customizable to meet your specific needs — find code lens intrusive or the current line blame annotation distracting — no problem, it is quick and easy to turn them off or change how they behave via the built-in GitLens Settings editor, an interactive editor covering many of GitLens' powerful settings. While for more advanced customizations, refer to the GitLens settings docs and edit your vscode user settings.

Support GitLens

While GitLens is generously offered to everyone free of charge, if you find it useful please consider supporting it.

I've been building GitLens in my spare time¹ for almost 2 years now. From its very humble beginnings, GitLens has grown wildly beyond my expectations — in both its reach as well as its demands on my time and attention. While I enjoy giving my free time and attention to GitLens' development and growth, I would like to do even more.
