Showing Annotations in Eclipse Mars for Java is Impossible
<p>I am currently trying to get the git annotations in eclipse mars for a Java file, to see when a line was changed. In Luna, this worked (and still works) with <code>Team -&gt; Show annotations</code>. In Mars, this does not work for me. (Also after reinstall and on a different computer). For other files, for example the pom.xml of the maven project, this works. The project is, besides, this problem, working and compiling fine in eclipse and was created based on the pom.xml in eclipse. Also when the project is created via <code>mvn eclipse:eclipse</code>, show annotations is not working.</p>

<p>I've read the settings with <code>Ignore whitespace changes</code> and <code>Preferences &gt; General &gt; Editors &gt; Text Editors &gt; Annotations &gt; Errors &gt; Show in &gt; Vertical ruler</code> (<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19726389/show-annotations-not-working">Show annotations not working</a>), which are correct. Also closing and reopening the Java perspective did not work (<a href="https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1011988/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1011988/</a>). I could not find any other recent threads about this.</p>

<p>Is there some configuration for Java that I am missing, or is this an eclipse bug?</p>
