title: GIT integration to show method history in Visual Studio
body: <p>We use GitHub for our source code repository and Visual Studio for our development (C#). I downgraded from Visual Studio Professional (Trial) to Community Edition and somehow lost the GIT method history I had above each method signature.  I've since reinstalled Pro version and still can't see it.  This method history was very useful and looked something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Last Update 8/1/2015, 3 authors.
  Void DoSomething() {}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Clicking on the status line would bring up things like "compare to previous version", history etc.  </p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure if it was a feature of Visual Studio Professional (doubtful) or one of the git extensions I possibly installed (see Tools->Extensions and Updates) or something else.  I'm new to using GIT/GitHub, especially with Visual Studio and would appreciate some help.  My specific questions</p>
  
  <pre><code>1.  How do I get history/last author/etc for each method (not file)?  Does it work under Professional and Community
  2.  What are some good Git Tools to install in Visual Studio to see changes/history, etc.?  I'm using the command line to commit/push etc., but am not opposed to doing this from Visual Studio if it makes sense.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
