In the initial release of Android Studio 3.6, operations requiring authentication in Git version control were broken in the IDE. This bug has been fixed in 3.6.1. See Issue #124680708 for more information.
This feature wasn't quite ready for version 3.6 of Android Studio and had been inadvertently left in the final release. We've removed Multi Preview from Android Studio 3.6.1. However, if you would like to use Multi Preview, a more refined version of the feature is available in the 4.0 beta releases.
