check files into source control.

[pimbeenes]

I would like to be able to check in files into VCS.

Currently files are not actually persisted to disk ( are they Virtual Documents ? ) if we sync those files to the local file system it would be possible to check the files into git.

This are all virtual documents since this is a virtual file system. But it should be possible to open another workspace (which is a real fs) and copy the files into this one. So then you have a file on your disk which can pushed to git.

For a later release we plan this could be synchronized with git directly without copy / paste the files.

This topic is on my personal roadmap for that product. I like to bring your request and ralfs answer together.
At the moment only Ralf workaround "work" in some way that you for example just copy the whole virtual folder into a "real" folder that allows you to have the standard vscode vcs capabilities.
In the end I like that the extensions is doing that job for your in the background so that you have an easy checkout / commit / push workflow.
