I just started using VSCode version 1.24.1.
After loading a folder, it shows warning
Visual Studio Code is unable to watch for file changes in this large workspace
After i check the limit as suggested on their guide, using
cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
I get 8192, while my project has only 650 files (of which 400 are inside .git)
Why does this happen? Is this a bug or am I missing something?
(Increasing the limit is clearly not the right solution.)
