Visual Studio not comparing

I upgraded from Visual Studio 2017 to 2019, and now Visual Studio uses Beyond Compare to show Git diffs. I would like 2019 to work like 2017 where all Git commands and comparisons happen right in Visual Studio without the need for other external software. How do I set this up?

You must have something that's configured your project to use BC, it doesn't reconfigure itself to use a 3'rd party product on its own (to the best of my knowledge).

Edit the .config file in your project's .git folder to remove the BC settings, or use VS's Tools, Options, Source Control, Git Global Settings, and under Tools - click the texts to use VS.
