I can only view Local History in Android Studio. How do I view git history?
I have already checked out my project using Git into Android Studio.
On GitHub.com, you can access your project history by selecting the commit button from the code tab on your project. Locally, you can use git log . The git log command enables you to display a list of all of the commits on your current branch. By default, the git log command presents a lot of information all at once.
Just type "git" and press tab in Chrome's address bar. You can search your browser history for GitHub URL you visited. This helps you to find and open GitHub repository, issues, pull requests, or etc.
Git stores history as a graph of snapshots of the entire repository. These snapshots, called commits in Git, can have multiple parents, creating a history that looks like a graph instead of a straight line.
When you have repository open in Visual Studio code, you can execute the command Git: View History (git log) from the command Plate. This will open the Git History Window with all change logs for the repository. You can then select individual commits for detailed change logs for each of them.
While writing this question I found the answer, I thought it maybe useful to someone else stuck like I was.
If you go to VCS => Enable Version Control Integration
You can then selected Git or your version control.
To view Git history all you need to do now is secondary click on the code in AS and select Git => Show History
