Only if you already know it is there. There is like... zero history discoverability built in the git. and git's historical search story is pretty bad too.

Well, who other than you would need to know about your commented out code? I’m not suggesting you keep the commented out code as part of your git history, that would never be allowed through a pull request. The changes will be there in the history though, I doubt you’ll need to go back for them, but you could.
