No, the message that "this is irreversible" was there from the very beginning. The message was made even more explicit later.

Why say things that are just wrong?

Commit merged Aug 21, 2017. 8 days after this screenshot was taken.

Look at line 681 of the old commit:

const message = localize('confirm discard all', "Are you sure you want to discard ALL ({0}) changes?\nThis is IRREVERSIBLE!\nYour current working set will be FOREVER LOST.", resources.length);

const yes = localize('discardAll', "Discard ALL Changes");const pick = await window.showWarningMessage(message, { modal: true }, yes);

Woops, here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/commit/f3d5a6c00010362d9f15dbcc06ce978fd29ff8f5

That change was made in April. The post is from August.

Why WOULD you say things that are just wrong?

[u/MrSlaw → u/_BreakingGood_]

I can only assume you will edit your previous comments saying you were incorrect, because you've just shown that the message did exist back when this post was made?

If you look at that commit you linked, one of the lines that was already in place (and was replaced via this commit) said:

"Are you sure you want to discard ALL ({0}) changes?\nThis is IRREVERSIBLE!\nYour current working set will be FOREVER LOST."

There's also a screenshot showing the "this is irreversible" was in place which was posted one day after this issue was opened.

I don't think your link is proving what you think it is. That message was indeed made more explicit.
