.gitignore 隐藏在 VSCode 中

Question

my VSCode (Insiders) hid the .gitignore a few days ago, and I cannot revert this, I tried searching a lot, but the solution of adding:

{
...
"files.exclude": {
    "**/.gitignore": false
  },
...
}

in settings.json doesn't work, in the Settings with UI I only have:

• .svn
• .hg
• CVS
• .DS_Store
• Thumbs.db

The .git folder isn't hidden, nor .vscode or other files starting by . , just .gitignore .

I'm using VSCode Insiders 1.69.0-insider , commit 4c72dedb4ad283a569f83a7389468c3ae2c742c3 .

This might be because vscode/issue 152891 has been fixed:

set "explorer.excludeGitIgnore": "true"

Meaning excludeGitIgnore is now working in insider.

This is discussed in issue 152543 :

Looks like a recent change means .gitignore now always gets hidden in Explorer unless you have set "explorer.excludeGitIgnore": true , in which case the .gitignore file shows but none of the .gitignored files do.

I saw that even having a folder without Git initialized in it still results in the .gitignore being hidden.
Seems like it's a default behavior and the explorer.excludeGitIgnore setting changes this behavior.

I tried messing with the Files: Exclude setting and adding a negated glob (or whatever that's officially called) to get the gitignore back, but that didn't work.

It should be fixed now.
