Even that GIT integration is good in @code but in explorer it's not possible to see which files are marked as ignored and will not be pushed to git.
In other editors these ignored files are displayed in gray - so you know which are not relevant to edit (eg. some generated files, configs etc).
Probably best would be if icon themes for explorer will have ability to change look of this feature.
Example in phpstorm:

..having .gitignore:
.env
explorer-excluded-files
@aniddan that's like answer ?
You probably mean explorer-excluded-files extension, but it doesn't look like it's doing what I explained...

Why not post link to issue directly....
But I found https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/15370 - description seems to be different, but first comment is talking about gitignore so it's probably what you mean...
@bpasero Could you at least add reference(s) to the other issue(s)?
