How to enable VSCode Interactive Editor

Im using Vscode and Gitlens. I want to be able to do an interactive rebase. I have core.editor=code --wait set. But when I try and run a rebase I get the text-based editor instead, like so:

Any ideas?

in bash type command:

git config --global sequence.editor "code --wait --reuse-window"

then CTRL + SHIFT + P and type "PATH" and pick: "Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH"

Here you go

This worked for me. just execute the following command on your terminal

git config --global sequence.editor "code --wait --reuse-window"

Now execute the following command on VS Code Terminal to get GitLens Interactive editor.

git rebase -i <branch_name>

Please check if the interactive rebase editor option is checked from within the GitLens settings in VS Code:

Ctrl + Shift + P > GitLens: Open Settings

You should then be able to invoke the interactive rebase editor from both the VS Code command palette, or from the terminal as follows:

git -c sequence.editor="code --wait --reuse-window" rebase --interactive <base>

If you're on the VS Code Insiders edition, replace code in the above with code-insiders.
