Git blame editor decoration is too loud

Open ile-24556 opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

Git blame editor decoration may be too loud, as if it were the code itself.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enable git.blame.editorDecoration.enabled. See the official description: Using Git source control in VS Code > Git blame information
  2. Open a Git repository folder.
  3. Open a tracked file.

Then, commit information will be displayed in the body text color: Git blame editor decoration in the body text color

Workaround

Insert the following snippet into settings.json:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
  "[Nord]": {
    "git.blame.editorDecorationForeground": "#616e88"
  }
},

Then, it will be displayed in the comment color: Git blame editor decoration in the comment color

  • This feature was introduced in November 2024 (version 1.96) as an experimental future, and stabilized in January 2025 (version 1.97). The future request was microsoft/vscode#205424
  • The display color can be controlled via git.blame.editorDecorationForeground. If not set, it inherits editorInlayHint.foreground which was changed in #232.
  • Unlike inlay hints, there is no background color setting.
