I too missed the old VCS tools in the new UI. But it was 10 minutes work to get them back in the toolbar, along with a few other things I missed (and that setting syncs to my JetBrains account, so new installs get that same modification).
I get trying to be minimalist but the VCS icons are really useful because they also convey if something has not been pushed / pulled yet.
