Visual Studio 2019 中的 Git 日志历史记录

Question

I am not quite used with the Visual Studio and GIT. Is there an extension I can use for nicely previewing the Git repo history (seeing the merges and so on). The normal "View History" does not show the merges and branches in a tree format. Some like this: git history I know there is Git History for Visual Studio Code. Is there any good option for Visual Studio 2019? Thanks!

Here is what you should see when displaying the history in Visual Studio:

If only one branch is shown without the merge, that's because one of the button in the toolbar to show all the branches have not been clicked.

The history could be displayed from the status bar of VisualStudio with the "View History" menu item:

And you could also use an external tool like GitExtensions or Fork to display the git history.
