Visual Studio 2019 Team Explorer missing GitHub option panels

So I just installed VS 2019 and right of the box, I am not seeing the options for Github as I can see on 2017.

Here is what I am seeing: enter image description here

I am expecting to see this: enter image description here

What could cause the options not showing up? I can see them on VS 2017. TIA.

I recently ran into this issue. I went to the Search box at the very top of Visual Studio, looked for preview features as mentioned in another comment, and unchecked New Git user experience. That reverted it to the old way. Then, I went back and checked it back on, and the Git Changes tab reappeared in the solution explorer window.

I have the same problem, suddenly when I opened my Visual Studio 2019 Professional Edition, the Git connection is gone in Team Explorer, and I can't even see my projects in Azure Devops when I am already connected.

My solution is I just updated my Visual Studio by checking for new updates by going on Help Menu -> Check for Updates.

To Solve this problem we need to simply disabled New Git user experience option. To do so, press "Ctrl+Q"(to search) -> now paste preview features -> uncheck New Git user experience checkbox. And Wala! you are done! For more information check this link=> enter link description here This is the way I solved my Problem.

Just have the same problem that i was missing the "Team Explorer" Panel (Changes, Sync etc.)in Visual Studio 2019.

When I was turning off following Option, the menu was looking like VS2017: Git -> Options -> Environment -> Preview Feature

Turning off "New git user experience" Option.

Maybe this helps.

Here the article about the "New git user experience": https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/exciting-new-updates-to-the-git-experience-in-visual-studio/

As far as I can see, git was moved to a menu option "Git" in Visual Studio 2019 16.8.3. Maybe I am missing something but I can have a go and try the new menu Git > Manage Branches

Something changed recently with an update to VS 2019. If you click the "Open Git Changes" link, it opens a new window that lets you do the individual Fetch, Pull and Push operations (highlighted arrows screenshot here).
