I think there is no out-of-the-box support for that in VS Code.

You can install a plugin to give you similar functionality. Eg.:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=micnil.vscode-checkpoints

Or the more famous:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=xyz.local-history

Some details may need to be configured: The VS Code search gets confused sometimes because of additional folders created by this type of plugins. You can configure the search to ignore such folders or change their locations in the chosen plugin configuration (adding such folders to your .gitignore file also solves this problem).
