VSCode Flutter - stop tracking Flutter repo changes

I can't figure out when this started, but suddenly I find my repo tracking all my changes just fine, but...

There's another repo open - like the entire Flutter source - and my source control is tracking thousands of changes.

Is there some easy way to turn this off? I can't seem to find it.

TIA

The solution is to add the path to the flutter repo to the "git.ignoredRepositories" list either in the user or workspace settings.

"git.ignoredRepositories": [
        "/path/to/flutter"
    ]

I had to reload/restart the vscode window for it to take effect.

An alternative is to change git.AutoRepositoryDetection from true to subFolders. This will keep scanning the current folder and sub folders but avoids tracking flutter.

git.AutoRepositoryDetection

  1. In VS Code hit Ctrl+Shift+P
  2. Type and select User Settings
  3. In the search field enter git.AutoRepositoryDetection
  4. select field to false
