i configured a gui application to be used with git core.editor "vscode" , the application work perfectly as a git mergetool but it takes 4.5 second or more to switch to the next file when running 'git difftool', the issue is not only with vscode as i tried other visual code editors and all of them take long time, but the command runs extremely fast with cli based applications.
then...
i tried using git with wsl in windows and set vscode as the default code editor for git and it takes fraction of a second to switch files git difftool.
both on the same machine git with wsl is very much faster with GUI than git for windows
