git in vscode

It seems like you can access a git bash from the VScode terminal. What's more, VScode's Source Control allows users to do everything (branches, commits, viewing differences, etc.) that one could do in git but with a ui. Is git replaced? How would it be easier to use git?

Hiya Angelus Miculek ! 👋

Yes, there are multiple alternatives to using the command line, like an IDE's built-in version control option or GitHub's Desktop app if using GitHub, but Git is still at the foundation of all of this, it hasn't been replaced. I'd still recommend learning the terminal commands so you're at least familiar with them, but at the end of the day, you can use whichever tool / approach you prefer of course 😃
