The comment in the file you are proposing to edit says:

# This file contains ignores for build artifacts from standard builds.
# Auxiliary files from local workflows, your preferred editor, etc. should
# be ignored locally using $GIT_DIR/info/exclude or ~/.gitexclude.

.vscode falls into the "preferred editor" category of auxiliary files.
