2022-04-08contrib/vscode/: debugging with VS Code and gdbCOGONI Guillaume
The externalConsole=true setting is broken for many users (launching the debugger with such setting results in VS Code waiting forever without actually starting the debugger). Also, this setting is a matter of user preference, and is arguably better set in a "launch" section in the user-wide settings.json than hardcoded in our script. Remove the line to use VS Code's default, or the user's setting. Add useful links in contrib/vscode/README.md to help the user to configure VS Code and how to use the debugging feature.

2018-07-30contrib: add a script to initialize VS Code configurationJohannes Schindelin
VS Code is a lightweight but powerful source code editor which runs on your desktop and is available for Windows, macOS and Linux. Among other languages, it has support for C/C++ via an extension, which offers to not only build and debug the code, but also Intellisense, i.e. code-aware completion and similar niceties. This patch adds a script that helps set up the environment to work effectively with VS Code: simply run the Unix shell script contrib/vscode/init.sh, which creates the relevant files, and open the top level folder of Git's source code in VS Code.
