title: Git missing in VS Code – No source control providers
body: <p>I just installed Visual Studio Code 1.17 and opened a Git repository folder.  When entering the Source Control tab I see a message <em>"There are no active source control providers"</em>. I thought Git was baked into VSCode!?</p>
  
  <p>To make matters worse, when I attempt to install additional SCM providers there is no option for Git. How do I get my Git back!?</p>
