I just installed EGit on Eclipse -- but Where is it?

I just installed the EGit plugin for Eclipse, restarted Eclipse and it shows well in the Installed Software list but... I can't find any added menus or access to its features?

What am I missing?

To prove that I am not hallucinating here is a screenshot of the list:

EGit is there!

But there is no hint or clue in any of the menus, menu items, perspectives or views that it's there...

No sign in menus: enter image description here

No sign in projects:

No sign in perspectives:

Do I need to do some additional configuration somewhere to enable it?

Mystery solved.

It turns out that I mistakenly installed Eclipse JGit instead of Eclipse EGit. Once I selected the EGit package instead:
