I maintain writing projects (they're text documents, not code) in Git repositories. Some of them are collaborative, leading to pull requests from other contributors. I have found using Git's --word-diff option to be especially valuable in reviewing proposed changes word-by-word rather than line-by-line. The -U0 option suppresses context lines from the output, making it easier to review. The documents are typically written with one line per paragraph. The formats vary, but may be any of Markdown, LaTeX or HTML, depending on the situation and on whether it's a personal project or collaborative.

In my opinion, Visual Studio Code is not in the same category of text editors as Emacs or Vim, especially for keyboard-intensive users. However, it has some highly attractive features and extensions. One such extension uses the languagetool spelling and grammar checker to create a tree widget populated by errors and warnings from languagetool and other sources, including markup validation.
The original Ltex extension for using languagetool no longer seems to be maintained, but this fork is.
