edamagit: Magit Status windows does not show

Hi @kahole,

coming from Emacs, I was thrilled to see that there is a Magit port for VS Code! It was working very well for me, until a few weeks ago it stopped functioning, the Status window just doesn’t appear. I tried various things, among them running a fresh VS Code with no other plugins installed, tried in various repos, all to no avail. I checked all buffers of the Output tab, but didn’t find anything that would indicate an error.

Does anybody observe the same issues with the newest VS Code version(s)? Is there any place where I can find additional debug output?

Is there consensus on git.path replacing win-git-path being the way to go? Leave a thumbs up or a comment

Git is definitely in the PATH on my machine; I’m able to run it from any terminal I open, whether that’s VS Code, Windows Terminal, or cmd.exe. If you can point me at a rough starting place to look in the code, I’m happy to try to help debug; I haven’t done much VS Code extension development, but I’m pretty OK at JavaScript/TypeScript in general.

I’m seeing the same behavior with all Magit commands that I’ve tested so far. Aside from the previously noted log message (which I suspect is just the extension getting activated for the first time), I don’t see anything in the Extension Host logs or the developer console. This has been going on for what I’m pretty sure is at least a couple of months.

System info:

Windows 10 VS Code 1.75.1 Edamagit 0.6.36
