How to disable version control in phpstorm? - phpstorm

I am playing around with phpstorm and somehow I activated version control. I don't need it. Now all my tabs are different: orange text on gray background. All files in the file view are orange. How do I disable version control?

Go to Settings -> Version Control and remove the folder from which you would like to remove version control tracking (coloring tabs etc.) It will naturally not remove version control from your project (as in deleting the .git/ folder for instance).

The ultimate way is to disable all version control plugins (under Settings -> Plugins): CVS Integration, Git Integration, GitHub, hg4idea, Perforce Integration, Subversion Integration. After restarting PhpStorm Settings -> Version Control tab will be gone.
Note that this will disable version control for all of your projects.

You can just remove vcs.xml from .idea folder and then restart PhpStorm

In phpStorm 2022.1.3+, go to
Preferences > Version Control > Directory Mappings
Then remove the directories you don't want to watch, as Greg suggested.

Go to Settings -> Version Control and remove the folder from which you would liek to remove version control.
I have not enough reputation to +1 Greg's answer or comment, but... for those who are interrested : the same goes for Webstorm.

I had this problem and I used from 2 of notes in these answers in these page together.
As Greg has mentioned in one of replies, your git repository is in .git sub directory inside directory that you want to manage it with version control system. When you define a git repository, PhpStorm automatically generate it and with creating this sub directory, it adds a file for handling mapping between itself and version control system. It calls vcs.xml and it's located in .idea sub directory.
It's not enough to remove only .git directory. When you remove .git, you will get an error in PhpStorm every time that you open your project due to not matching vcs.xml for mapping between PhpStorm and git repository of your project. So after removing .git directory, you must also remove vcs.xml files from .idea and now you won't have any error or warning in your PhpStorm.
It doesn't need to restart PhpStorm at all and after this, colors of all of files that was mentioned in questions return to normal colors in PhpStorm.

PhpStorm hides only node_modules for every project

I tried updating, I tried removing .idea folders from the projects. I even deleted my whole settings folder from users/User in Windows. Last one helped, but I had to import my old settings, there is just far too much changed for me to redo everything, problem reappeared.
While indexing, PhpStorm shows the node_modules folder. Right after it finishes, the folder disappears. I have no scopes set up, I have not excluded the folder.
I followed this issue PhpStorm hides directories in Project window and it didn't help.
If I setup node_modules as a source folder from the Directories settings, and then choose "Project Files" from the Project View, then and only then I can see it in the sidenav... This is driving me nuts...
I disabled "Vue for Idea" plugin and node_modules reappeared. I feel so stupid right now....
Thanks to Alexandre Martini in the comments. He gave me a hunch.
This shit drove me crazy to - Go to File > Settings > Frameworks > Javascripts > Libraries and make sure you have a library setup pointing to your project's node_modules folder and the visibility is enabled. This link helped me.

How to set highlighting of directories with added files to red/blue

I'm using PhpStorm 8.0.3 (on Windows, MacOs and Linux). I'm using GIT in my project. My remote server is through SSHFS.
I know option "Show directories with changed descendants". I've marked it. But when I'm adding new files (they are marked on red in project tree view), parents of these directories are not highlighted/marked (such directories have normal, white color). How can I change it?
Thanks.

Recover deleted file from PhpStorm and SourceTree

I have an open project in PhpStorm that I manage using SourceTree. I was trying to remove some image files from a commit using SourceTree, but accidentally selected a file that should not be deleted. I haven't changed anything (in either PhpStorm or SourceTree) since deleting the file. I tried to do Ctrl+Z in SourceTree but nothing happened. I then checked in PhpStorm Vcs -> local history, but it didn't show the file. How can I recover this file?
Try to right click on project main folder in phpStorm and select Local history / Show History in context menu (not vcs / local history). The file should be at the list as "Deleting".
This is documented by JetBrains here

PhpStorm don't show line status in editor

My PhpStorm ver7.0 doesn't show line status in editor (added lines, modified line, deleted lines). How can I show them (I installed Tortoise SVN and checkout my project)?
Please make sure you have enabled version control for the project directory in Settings | Version Control, just map the project root to Subversion.

My intellij java project can't find misc.xml

I have a java project in Intellij and use Hg/Mercurial for version control. I ignored some files with this .hgignore file
syntax: glob
target/*
.idea/*
*.iml
and deleted all these files which was committed before. but now I can't execute my project, cause it can not find the file misc.xml.
What should I do?
Updated answer for IntelliJ 14+: File-> New-> Project from Existing Sources... (choose your project directory) and follow the wizard Q&A.
Restarting Intellij should fix the problem. Just make sure you click on the "Import Project" pop-up that appears on the top right.
At first, you shouldn't really ignore everything under .idea but instead only .idea/workspace.xml and .idea/tasks.xml, as it JetBrains states: http://devnet.jetbrains.com/docs/DOC-1186
To solve your problem and get your project back to working state there are possibly two solutions:
Checkout the last commit that contains the files under .idea folder with
hg checkout SHA,
where SHA is the commit id.
After that reset your working space to the head:
hg reset HEAD
Edit your .hgignore in the way that was recommended before, add project files to stage, and commit them:
hg commit -am "Reverted project settings"
If there is no commit with the project settings, you can just import your code back.
Start Intellij IDEA and choose "Import Project". Choose the folder with your code, and choose the appropriate SDK after.
I met this problem when I did rm -rf project command, then when I git clone a new project to my working space, maybe quit the idea and then import the project again. This can easily solve this
I have found that for this error and also for some other cases where the IDE project behavior is inconsistent with command line behavior, the following often helps: close the project's Intellij IDEA window, delete .idea/, and open the project again. IntelliJ often flashes up a message saying it didn't find a project root but generally this disappears after a few seconds and IntelliJ automatically rebuilds the .idea directory.
Recreating the .idea folder
File -> Close project
File -> Open -> Choose pom.xml under the project folder -> Open as project -> Delete existing project and import
