This extension includes a lot of cool functionalities of Git in Visual Studio Code: 'GitLens simply helps you better understand code' says Eric Amodio, the creator of the extension. So a friend of mine told me that maybe Visual Studio Code could fit my needs, and he was right. I was enjoying Atom, but in some cases, my computer at the time couldn't handle it very well and it was getting a bit laggy to open the text editor or work with it.
