Can we use Git on Vs code without installing Git to the PC?

I saw couple of videos that they use git without installing VS code, need to clarify

CodePudding user response:

Git is standalone software that you must install separately. Once installed, Visual Studio Code, like many other tools, can integrate with Git.

You can certainly use Git without installing VSCode, and you can also use VSCode without installing Git for non-Git related functionality, but you must install both Git and VSCode if you wish to use Git features inside of VSCode.

Note the VSCode documentation regarding the integrated Git features:

Make sure Git is installed. VS Code will use your machine's Git installation (at least version 2.0.0), so you need to install Git first before you get these features.
