Here's how to disable the package that is responsible for loading the Git source control support in Visual Studio. Use at your own risk: this will probably break CodeLens' git integration. But you're not using that, are you? :)
- Create a file called devenv.pkgundef and place it next to
devenv.exe
in you Visual Studio'sCommon7\IDE
(you'll need elevation for this) - Add the following entries to the file:
[$RootKey$\Packages\{7fe30a77-37f9-4cf2-83dd-96b207028e1b}]
[$RootKey$\SourceControlProviders\{11b8e6d7-c08b-4385-b321-321078cdd1f8}]
- Close VS if open, open a Developer command prompt, and type
devenv /updateconfiguration
- Start VS, and voilla - Git support no more!
To undo, delete the devenv.pkgundef
file, and run devenv /updateconfiguration
again.
