Looking up the search bar gives too many choices, considering the fact that I am a complete beginner. I need to narrow down on what I am using vs code for. I shall be working with git. So the tutorial ought to start right from beginners and flow towards using git.

Git is just the version control part and there are better clients for git than vscode. What else will you be using it for? E.g., Python code? Web dev?

If you're completely new to dev you may benefit from some free online courses that are about what you're looking to do. Most dev classes already use vscode and git, so you will get that part anyway.

    I don't have suggestions, though I could look for some later. Maybe someone with personal experience with them can chime in.

    Basically, search for "free online beginner coding classes". Avoid anything paid for now. There are a lot of scams, but you really don't need to pay for classes to learn.

    Failing that, search YouTube for tutorials, though it helps if you know what you want to do. Start with something simple. For example analyzing a data set, make a simple game, something like that.
