How do I check my Git username in Visual Studio code?

Answer 1

To check your Git username in Visual Studio Code, use the Command Palette with the Git: Show User Info command or open the integrated terminal and run 'git config user.name'.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check your Git username in Visual Studio Code, you'll need to open the Command Palette and use the Git: Show User Info command. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Open Visual Studio Code.
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux or Cmd+Shift+P on macOS to open the Command Palette.
3. Type 'Git: Show User Info' and press Enter.
4. Your Git username and email will be displayed in the bottom right corner or in an output pane.

If the Git: Show User Info command does not work, you can also check your username by opening the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code (using Ctrl+` or through the View menu) and typing git config user.name. This will display your Git username in the terminal.
