Git Pull Before Checkout
VS Code introduced a feature to synchronize before switching branches:
Pull before checkout
This milestone we added a new setting, git.pullBeforeCheckout, to streamline the process of switching branches. When this setting is enabled, if there are no outgoing commits, we will pull from the remote and fast-forward the branch before checking it out.
"git.pullBeforeCheckout": true
