No he asked for a discard after importing the project into VS Code. discard in git terms refers to
git reset
, notgit clean
. Even if he wanted to run agit reset
then this version of VS Code would have run agit clean
and deleted everything. Imagine he committed all 5000 files, but had a secret.json that he hadn't committed. He didn't add it to gitignore either. Running agit reset --hard
will not delete this file, but the VS Code button did exactly that because it ran agit clean
.
