Leverage workspaces to easily group and manage multiple repositories together, accessible from anywhere, streamlining your workflow. Create workspaces just for yourself or share (coming soon in GitLens) them with your team for faster onboarding and better collaboration.

Visual File History

Quickly see the evolution of a file, including when changes were made, how large they were, and who made them. Use it to quickly find when the most impactful changes were made to a file or who best to talk to about file changes and more.

Worktrees

Efficiently multitask by minimizing the context switching between branches, allowing you to easily work on different branches of a repository simultaneously. Avoid interrupting your work in progress when needing to review a pull request. Simply create a new worktree and open it in a new VS Code window, all without impacting your other work.

Integrations

All integration provide automatic linking, while rich integrations with GitHub & GitLab offer detailed hover information for autolinks, and correlations between pull requests, branches, and commits, as well as user avatars for added context.

Use autolinks to linkify external references, like Jira issues or Zendesk tickets, in commit messages.
