The settings do not seem to offer any simple toggle to enable/disable inline blame. I am NOT talking about currentLine but ANY in-editor blame display, e.g. "You, 5 months ago"
I find these extra lines inside my code quite confusing.
Check out the Code Lens section of the GitLens interactive settings editor (from the command palette run GitLens: Open Settings). From there you can turn on/off those items (vscode calls them Code Lens) as well as most of the other GitLens UI features.
There is also a command GitLens: Toggle Git Code Lens to quickly toggle them back on and off -- though it will only affect the current window and will revert to the configured settings on a reload.
Hope that helps.
i only see toggles for the whole GitLens functionality, not for inline only?
Can you send a screenshot of what you are asking about?
Here are the code lens settings -- the image in the settings will dynamically update as you toggle the settings

Here are the current line settings:

Thanks! Wasn't aware of the gitLens own settings dialog, very convenient! And that the name I was looking for was codeLens!
