Hi @sgaunet,

This behaviour occurs when Visual Studio Code fails to load the CSS & JS resources packaged in the extension that the Git Graph View requires. If you run the "Developer: Open Webview Developer Tools" command from the Visual Studio Code Command Palette, and switch to the Console Tab, you'll be able to see the errors that Visual Studio Code is having. These error logs will tell you to path of the two required files out.min.js and out.min.css.

There are two possible causes of the behaviour you've observed (the second is most likely):

1. If you just installed / updated the extension, in rare cases it's possible that Visual Studio Code incorrectly unpacked the extension. To check if this is the case, check your file system for the files I mentioned above in the error logs. If they do not exist, you just need install a previous version of Git Graph, and then update back to the latest version. If not, (2) must be what's occurring.
2. This is caused by a Visual Studio Code bug with their Webview implementation's compatibility with WSL, that affects all extensions that use Webview's (not just Git Graph). There have been numerous of these Visual Studio Code Webview WSL bugs this year unfortunately, currently this one Webview doesn't load resources on WSL2 microsoft/vscode#105536 is still open, so please follow it for Microsoft's resolution of this issue. This issue has been raised numerous other times in this repo, including Visual Studio Code Bug with WSL2 preventing the Git Graph View from loading #378.

I'll close this issue as either:

• You just need to follow the steps I mentioned in (1), and there is nothing I can do about Visual Studio Code failing to properly unpack the extension.
• It is a Visual Studio Code bug, and is already being tracked by Microsoft in their open issue.
