The "open file" dialog in Visual Studio Code is not showing hidden files. For example, when looking at my home directory, none of the .

Under Linux you can right click on files in the file selection window and check the "Show Hidden Files" checkbox.
In menu View in Visual Studio Code, select SCM (shortcut Ctrl + Shift + G), right click on the Git icon, click here and select Keep.
