In NeoVim or classic Vim I can jump back to my previous cursor position using ' '. Which is usefull when I used Go to Definition (g d) and want to jump back.

Is it possible to implement this feature?

@cbosco No worries, all questions allowed.

I’m also not showing the correct behavior on my Mac on latest versions, and it seems that the extension owners are also not seeing the correct behavior. See the comments on PR #1993 from 2 days ago. It seems that we are waiting on an API command to be fully implemented in VSCode before this will work. You could pull a dev build of VSCode, but I recommend you simply wait until the next official release.
