Git option not available under Version Control in Intellij

Question

I have installed Git on my local machine. I am using Git as a DVCS tool for bitbucket. I have the .git folder inside my project directory as I had cloned the project. I want to integrate Git into IntelliJ Idea but however, I am not able to see this option under the Version Control Integration as below.

Answer 1

Go to File -> Settings or (Ctrl + Atl + S) Then select Plugins

Ensure you have the Git Integration plugin enabled for Intellij as seen here (disabled in picture). Install if not already.
