Description

agents-window bug verification-found

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Unknown

  • VS Code Version: Unknown
  • OS Version: Unknown

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open a workspace with a Git remote.
  2. Open the Source Control view and select the "Files" tab (where modified files are listed).
  3. Observe modified files (they show the modified symbol) — previously there was a simple button in this view to pull down changes from the remote.
  4. The button to pull/fetch remote changes from the Files tab is no longer present.

Observed Behavior:

  • Modified files show the modified symbol, but there is no simple button in the Files tab to pull or fetch remote changes as there used to be.

Expected Behavior:

  • A clear "Pull"/"Fetch" action/button should be available in the Files tab (or next to modified files) to pull down changes from the remote repository, as previously provided.

Additional context:

  • This appears to be a regression in the Files tab UI — the user previously had a single-button flow to pull changes directly from the Files tab and that control is missing now. No other details were provided in the original report.
