Git tab not showing in Rstudio

Hello,
I am new to using Git and would like to version my code within Rstudio. I have followed the below instructions (found here):

In RStudio…
• Open the project that you would like have associated with a GitHub Repository
• Select Tools from the menu bar, then click on Version control, and then Project Setup
• In the Project Options window, select Git/SVN, and then select Git as the version control system in the drop-down menu
• After selecting Git, a pop-up window will ask if you want to initialize a new git repository.
• Select Yes, and then select Yes to restart the R Session
• Upon restart, a new Git` tab will be available in the Environment pane

But unfortunately the Git tab does not appear in my Environment pane. There is also no Git button on the top left.

My Paths include (user path):
C:\Program Files\Git\bin
C:\Program Files\Git\cmd

and (system path):
C:\Program Files\Git\cmd

and I have put the following address:
C:/Program Files/Git/bin/git.exe
in Tools/Global Options/Git/SVN

My topic seems to be very close to: Rstudio and git issue: not git-tab and disappearing commits which appears unresolved...

Are there some things I haven't checked? Thanks in adavance for your help.

Frédéric

Open global options in Tool tab, and select pane layout, is there a VCS in Plots or enverionment colums? if yes, select it and you can find the git tab.

Thank you for the advice, lijiaqi. But actually the VCS case was already selected. I tried to move it from the Environement to the Plot Column but I still have no Git tab.
BTW, there seems to be some ownership/rights problems on the disk I am working on. I have solved them via a git line command (and can now use git with command lines) but I still have no git tab.
