VS Code does not come with magit... and that in and of itself is a great reason to use Emacs. (This is coming from a daily Vim user) There really is nothing like Magit even as a plugin for VSC. VSC's scm mode is what I'd consider "barely passible". You can do stuff with it, but it's tiny/ugly/not very friendly. And that GitLens plugin doesn't really help with staging files/hunks etc... it's more meta info about past commits. |

That said, I've realized that I don't do that much SCM stuff inside my editor. It's nice to have a beautiful client, but I'm comfortable with the git commandline itself and found myself using it for the tricky stuff, even when I had Magit at my fingertips.
My main editor-integrated workflow involves switching branches, committing, pulling, and other routing stuff that VSC handles just fine. It's definitely no Magit, but it covers 95% of the stuff I do.
