workspace settings in a `.vscode` folder in your base directory.
### Git on Windows
### Fixes for Known Issues
#### Git on Windows
If you only have the `depot_tools` Git installed on your machine, even though it
is in your PATH, VS Code will ignore it as it seems to be looking for `git.exe`.
You will have to add the following to your settings in order for the Git
integration to work:
```
```json
{
"git.path": "C:\\src\\depot_tools\\git.bat"
}
```
#### Rendering of underscore on Linux
As mentioned in [#35901](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/35901), VS
Code will not show underscore (`_`) properly on Linux by default. You can work
around this issue by forcing another font such as the default `monospace` or
changing the font size in your settings:
```json
{
// If you want to use the default "monospace" font:
//"terminal.integrated.fontFamily": "monospace"
// If you would rather just increase the size of the font:
//"terminal.integrated.fontSize": 15
// If you would rather decrease the size of the font:
//"terminal.integrated.fontSize": 15
}
```
### Useful Extensions
Up to now, you have a basic version of VS Code without much language support.
