Choose Refresh from the Window menu, or click the Refresh button in the toolbar.

Tested with Visual Studio Code Version 1.26.1 on mac and win
SUPER-SHIFT-p > File: Revert File is the only way
(where SUPER is Command on Mac and Ctrl on PC)
In version 1.57.1 (June 2021) there is still no setting like Detect when file is changed outside the environment.
But if the file was accidentally changed outside, you can easily revert the changes with just the Undo (Ctrl+Z) command
