Hi I started to use VS Code version control.
I know difference between 'Commit All' and 'Commit Staged'
but can't figure out commit (Amend) and commit (Signed Off)
I checked VS Code version control Doc and it is not explained ...
I want to know what are they and when to use it.

The git commit --amend command is a convenient way to modify the most recent commit. It lets you combine staged changes with the previous commit instead of creating an entirely new commit. It can also be used to simply edit the previous commit message without changing its snapshot.
Amending a commit is a way to modify the most recent commit you have made in your current branch. This can be helpful if you need to edit the commit message or if you forgot to include changes in the commit. You can continue to amend a commit until you push it to the remote repository.
On the command line, navigate to the repository that contains the commit you want to amend. Type git commit --amend and press Enter. In your text editor, edit the commit message, and save the commit.
Those are not VS Code features but just Git commit options.
Signed Off: adding a Signed-off-by line at the end of the commit log message.

Amend: really amend that already committed on current branch.
