Intellij Annotate Option Grayed Out

Question

I am trying to look at who changed a line in Intellij 15. I know I can use git blame but I want to learn how to do it correctly in intellij. I am right clicking on the line numb

Answer 1

I had the same issue with the Annotate being greyed out however VCS was already set up. Editing the current VCS Directory Mapping fixed the issue for me.

Go to

• Settings -> Version Control
• Click on the current entry for your your application listed under projects.
• Click the pen icon to edit it
• Hit Ok, then ok to close the main dialog
