There are currently two options available which are displayed after right-clicking at a file in Git side bar:

  1. Open Change (the comparison of the old and the new versions)
  2. Open File (the new version of the file)

It is requested to have the third option: Open Old File (the old version of the file).

@Deilan while not exactly what you are asking for here (as a menu choice), but the GitLens extension can provide this behavior by doing the following:

Using the command palette run GitLens: Show File History or press alt+h when you have the file opened.
Then from the quick pick menu that opens, choose the commit you want (the most recent one in this case) and then choose Open File and it will open that version of the file

I would love to be able to add commands to the git file menu, but that currently isn't supported

@Deilan I thought I'd take a crack a this one and got it working pretty much exactly like you requested. #26629

I'd love to hear what everybody thinks 😄
Cheers.
