Johannes Schindelin 0f47f78e02 vscode: only overwrite C/C++ settings 
The C/C++ settings are special, as they are the only generated VS Code
configurations that *will* change over the course of Git's development,
e.g. when a new constant is defined.

Therefore, let's only update the C/C++ settings, also to prevent user
modifications from being overwritten.

Ideally, we would keep user modifications in the C/C++ settings, but
that would require parsing JSON, a task for which a Unix shell script is
distinctly unsuited. So we write out .new files instead, and warn the
user if they may want to reconcile their changes.

Configuration for VS Code

VS Code is a lightweight but powerful source code editor which runs on your desktop and is available for Windows, macOS and Linux. Among other languages, it has support for C/C++ via an extension.

To start developing Git with VS Code, simply run the Unix shell script called init.sh in this directory, which creates the configuration files in .vscode/ that VS Code consumes. init.sh needs access to make and gcc, so run the script in a Git SDK shell if you are using Windows.
