Git commit in VS Code without any message

How do I git commit my changes in VS Code without any message?

In the terminal I used --allow-empty-message -m ''. I used to be able to do what I wanted in VS Code by entering one space character, but that is no longer working.

Supposing you are using the built-in git client.

You should use the VSCode "TERMINAL" tab with a git aware terminal. It is not possible to do it with the GUI since it forces you to enter a message (that can be empty). Stage your modifications.

Then type in your terminal:

git commit

without the -m option.

If the git repository expects a message, an editor window should appear asking you for one.

I tried this on my machine with latest VS Code(1.79.2). I am able to commit by just adding a space in message box.

This works in VS code version 1.64.2.

Open the command pallette (Ctrl+Shift+P on PC or Cmd+Shift+P on a mac) and type in commit empty, select the Git: Commit Empty command. A text box will appear to add a commit message.
