How can I view the change history of an individual file in Git, complete details with what has changed?
I have got as far as:
git log -- [filename]
which shows me the commit history of the file, but how do I get at the content of each of the file changes?
I’m trying to make the transition from Microsoft Visual SourceSafe and that used to be a simple right-click → Show history.

For a graphical view I’d use gitk
:
gitk [filename]
Or to follow filename past renames:
gitk --follow [filename]
