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 exactly the same issue and managed to solve it by updating git. The reason for that is that I have recent InteliJ Idea and an old 2.1.x git installed.

For Mac:

brew upgrade git
brew link git

followed by IDE restart.
