How to list changes in directory/tree mode in VS Code

Question

I want to see the changes of git diff as a directory/tree list in VS Code. I remember it used to be there earlier in the git section of editor, but I don't see that anymore. Anyone knows how it can be seen?

While the existing answer probably answers your question, I strongly recommend you to start using gitk --all as well, as it superior for many tasks (e.g. manual diff alignment, show origin of this line, etc). — hlovdal

If you right-click on an empty spot in the changes list, you can select the option View as Tree to list changes as a directory tree.

Collapse "Changes"
Right click on empty space below "Changes"
Select "View as Tree"

The right click only works on empty space, you can't do it on a fully populated changes view.
