VS Code stage changes shortcut

Question

What is the VS Code stage changes shortcut?

I mean is it possible to stage a selected file without clicking the plus button in the version control tab?

Maybe there is no shortcut an it is somehow possible to setup one?

Answer 1

My custom workflow:

1. Open the SCM view ctrl+shift+G
2. Select the file in SCM using up/down arrow keys
3. Diff the file spacebar
4. Stage the file ctrl+up
5. Diff the file spacebar
6. Stage the file ctrl+up

How to configure?

Preferences: Open Keyboard shortcuts (JSON) command: workbench.action.openGlobalKeybindingsFile
Then put in the following:

    {
        "key": "ctrl+up",
        "command": "git.stage",
        "when": "workbench.scm.active"
    }

Answer 2

git.Stage and git.StageAll. They have no keybinding assigned by default. You can assign a custom one in your keyboard shortcut settings. CMDK+CMDS
