Our intention with GitLens+ features is to create a sustainable model that allows us the ability to continue to heavily invest in the free and open source core of GitLens-features that enable greater productivity, safety, ease-of-use, and more-while creating a set of additional, but completely optional, features designed specifically for professional developers and teams. Now the only requirement for access to GitLens+ features is having a Pro account for private repository use. However, with the release of GitLens 13 in October of 2022 -debuting the beautiful new Commit Graph-we wanted everyone to benefit from the powerful GitLens+ features on local and public repositories without any friction. At the time of release, these features required a free account for access on locally and publicly hosted repositories, while a paid account was needed on privately hosted repositories. The first GitLens+ features we introduced were the Visual File History view and Worktrees. In 2022, we added an all-new set of powerful features that enhance the GitLens experience, dubbed GitLens+ features. It gives you valuable insights into code authorship and unlocks the full power of Git in VS Code. With over 20 million installs, GitLens is the most popular Git extension for Visual Studio Code.
