I have been having this issue on and off for a while.

Whatever causes it also seems to leave orphan VSCode code chunklets running that will make sure it doesn't work and also helpfully leaves behind dysfunctional cached code chunks that will make sure it will continue to not work, even if you reboot!

In Ubuntu, this fixes it for me. I don't use Windows or OS X.

• NOTE: I'm using the code-insider version. If you're using just code, use that below, but make sure you're not killing other code things that aren't VSCode things.

• NOTE: You could just reboot and GOTO No Leftovers, but seeing the orphan chunklets confirms that the problem is the same-ish as the one that appears to be causing the issue for me.

• Quit VSCode -- all the way out.

Check for Leftovers:

$ pgrep -l code-insider
612285 code-insiders
612294 code-insiders
...and so forth, on and on.

• If there are none, GOTO No Leftovers.

• Kill them all:

$ killall code-insiders

• If you've tried a couple of times and they just won't die:

$ sudo killall code-insiders

• If sudo killall still didn't kill them still...reboot. Desperate times and all that. GOTO No Leftovers.

GOTO Check for Leftovers.

No Leftovers:

• Remove the webbish cache with the broken chunks:

$ rm -r ~/.config/Code/CachedData

• Open VSCode, go to Git (Ctrl-Shift-G), press the Git Graph icon and marvel at the beauty that is Git Graph.

• Keep Calm and Carry On.

Thank you! Happened to me today, on Windows: Cache location: ~\AppData\Roaming\Code\CachedData

And killing the stray processes and removing the cached data worked on Windows?

Yep, killing all code processes first, then removing the cached data, worked on Windows 👍

@mhutchie Would you like a pull request to add a markdown file with these instructions tweaked up for Linux and Windows if @clegendre could help with that part?

I don't use OS X any more, so, even though it's pretty Linux compatible-ish, I can't test the instructions there.
