How to turn on/off the SOURCE CONTROL PROVIDERS view in vscode?

Version 1.31.1 has a config parameter to always show the source control providers:

  • Type Ctrl+, to access settings
  • Search for SCM
  • Check the "Scm: Always Show Providers" option

You are using 1.17 released today (at least for me). For info about that panel see source control providers. I don't see a toggle for that panel - I assume you always get it if you have multiple SC Providers and open up the source control icon CTRL-Shift-G.
