Visual Studio Code in openSuse can't find Git

Multi tool use

Steps followed:




  • Git is installed in /usr/bin/git, and

  • I've changed the git.path variable to "/usr/bin/git"


However: Visual Studio Code still can't find Git and activate source control.



I'm running OpenSuse Leap, fully up to date as of today 29/12/18.

The git.path setting should be:



/usr/bin/git


Not /usr/bin.git



Make sure /usr/bin/git is an executable file (not a folder)
