Unable to add Newly Created Files to SVN - intellij-idea

There seems to be a problem adding newly created files to subversion through Intellij, because when I right click on any of them, the option to add them is grayed out and only Revert is accessible:
By the way, this problem only appears with newly added files, the old ones are detectable and can be edited and committed without problem.
Maybe I missed something when I created them?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The solution was really simple. Here's how I did, hopefully this will help someone else one day:
Leave Intellij (or the IDE you're using) aside and open your command prompt.
CD to the root of your project.
Manually add the files that you have created with the command add.
Example: svn add path/to/your/file.java
Go back to Intellij, you should see all your files which weren't detected before change color from yellow to green.
You can now commit your new files.

Smartgit: Repository Suddenly missing

Smartgit has decided that my repository is somehow misssing from my hard drive.
The repo that is definitely not missing, its exactly where i left it, nothing has changed as far as i'm aware. The repository i've been using for six months and made over 100 pull requests from.
If i rightclick the repository in the Repositories panel, and select Settings, it brings up a file selection window, presumably expecting me to tell it where the repo is.
When i do so, by clicking Select Folder in the folder its already in, it seems to reject this and brings up the window again, infinitely. It will not accept me telling it that the repository is exactly where its always been and still is

I have no idea what's going on here, please help
I had a very similar issue just now. I think the answer/clue is already there in your screen capture with SmartGit warning down the bottom right corner.
I ran git gc manually in command prompt and all went back to normal.
For me, the %userprofile%/.gitconfig was misconfigured. I discovered this when I tried to run git.exe init and it said there was an error on a line in that file.

Intellij Annotate Option Grayed Out

I am trying to look at who changed a line in Intellij 15. I know I can use git blame but I want to learn how to do it correctly in intellij. I am right clicking on the line numbers on the file but when I get the context menu the annotate option is grayed out. What setting am I missing?
I looked at this page and couldn't find an answer. What am I missing?
If you check File > Settings > Version Control and see that your current project is listed under "Unregistered Roots", go to (on the menubar) VCS > Enable Version Control Integration. It will ask you to select the VCS tool you use, then click ok and you'll have all the integrations working (including the annotate feature which uses git blame).
The answer by #activedecay let me in the right direction. In my case, I have a multi-module project - each has a separate git repo - but we're all in the same workspace.
In my case, Intellij IDEA 2017.2, the Preferences -> Version Control (update from 2022: or Preferences > Version Control > Directory Mappings) panel shows a listing of all the project roots. The module with the disabled "Annotate" option was in the "Unregistered Roots" section.
To fix the problem, I selected the module and pressed the "+" icon in the lower toolbar to register the module root with Intellij VCS. The change is immediate and the "Annotate" options becomes available.
Looks like its a fresh project. First configure the Version Control like Git and than commit at least once. After first commit Annotate option will not be grayed out.
Also update git for any new version.
Your VCS is not enabled, hence the issue. Below is the solution for that:
Click on the VCS option in the menu bar
Enable VCS
Select your version control
Done, you should be able to use the annotate option.
Make sure the file is tracked by version control
Add the project to "Version Control" settings
I had the same issue with the Annotate being greyed out however VCS was already set up. Editing the current VCS Directory Mapping fixed the issue for me.
Go to
Settings -> Version Control
Click on the current entry for your
your application listed under projects.
Click the pen icon to edit it
Hit Ok, then ok to close the main dialog
Under the version control setting, make sure to remove any unregistered roots, I had a similar issue where there was a Unregistered roots entry was found, after removing this unwanted entry, I was able to annotate on file.
I the following two screen short will solve your problem:
1.
I hope after those steps you will be able to see who changed a line.
Here are the steps i followed :
Go to VCS -> Checkout from Version Control -> Git -> give the URL for your repository.
The annotate option will be enabled now.
I had exactly the same issue and managed to solve it by updating git.
The reason for that is that I have recent InteliJ Idea and an old 2.1.x git installed.
For Mac:
brew upgrade git
brew link git
followed by IDE restart.
Perhaps you did not check Git Integration while setting up a fresh installation of IntelliJ. It happened to me when I updated to a major release. When I was setting up the new program, I might have unchecked the Git Integration on the wizard installation.
In order to solve this for IntelliJ Community 2019.1, access File > Settings > Plugins, go to the tab Installed and make sure the plugin Git Integration is checked. You should restart the IDE in order to make the Annotate action work.
I had the same issue, but my VCS settings were all configured properly. It turns out that git itself was considering the file as a brand new file and therefore didn't have any history for it. The file was actually not new, but simply renamed. While my rename changes were unstaged, git understood it as two separate files: a deletion of the old file and creation of a new file. However, once I git added the "deleted" file and the "new" file, git understood that it was actually a rename and IntelliJ was able to annotate on the file as expected.
I'm not sure why git didn't understand the rename when it was unstaged, but hopefully this helps someone!

IntelliJ IDEA not showing my module/project

Suddenly, IntelliJ IDEA is showing the following module view with a strange yellow colour in the background. I don't know how to get my module back, because it is not being shown:
Do you know how can I see my project folder back?
Thanks
This is way late, but deleting my .idea folder did the trick.
Close IntelliJ
cd <project-path>
rm -rf .idea
You can go to File-> Project Structure and then define it as a Source Folder
In Intellij, Right click on your parent pom file and click add as maven project
For Maven Projects that don't show up you can right click your pom.xml and click 'Add as Maven Project'.
In my case Modules kept on disappearing and I managed to fix it with these simple steps:
In the Project panel, right click to see the context menu
Select "Open Module Settings"
Select the Module that is not shown in the tree view
Select the first tab labeled "Sources"
Press the "+ Add Content Root" link
Select the root folder where the files for this module are located
Once the folder has been scanned, press the OK button and you will see the Module appear
I had a similar issue. Other answers did not solve the problem for me.
I ended up uninstalling IntelliJ, then installing a new copy. When prompted to import previous settings, I selected the option of not to import, then set up IntelliJ from scratch. After re-install/re-setup, I was able to open my project folder and all of the modules showed like before. Some how my IntelliJ got fubared, my guess is that it happened when I updated it last week.
For me, I must've deleted my .iml file somehow. Files with .iml contain configuration for your modules. The problem was that my project module was not being loaded without it. I'm using gradle, syncing my project with gradle regenerated whichever *.iml was necessary to build. Here is a post that provides a succinct explanation.
IntelliJ IDE | .iml File lost or deleted
Also - I know this issue is probably long gone and out of his head but for whoever may come across this issue, the above was the solution for me.
Check if the FACETS panel is blank
If it's blank .Then click the "+" button to add
one.
For me .I need a android facet.

Hope this is work for you.
I assume you are used to working with Eclipse. Intellij IDEA uses the same idea, but different names.
A Eclipse workspace is equal to IDEA's project.
A Eclipse project is equal to IDEA's module.

All IntelliJ run configurations disappeared

After IntelliJ IDEA froze and was killed from the task manager, all the Run/Debug Configurations disappeared. I have tried invalidating caches, reloading files from disk, synchronizing and restarting, but nothing helped.
You can try to restore your Run configuration using the Local History feature of IntelliJ IDEA.
If you are using .idea directory based format, then your configurations will reside in workspace.xml file under .idea directory, invoke Local History dialog from the .idea directory right click menu in IDEA Project View, select the label some time before the crash and revert the old copy of workspace.xml.
In case .ipr file based format is used, your configurations will be stored in the <project>.iws file in the project root which you can restore in a similar way.
If the configurations were Shared, they are stored in .idea\runConfigurations directory as separate XML files or in the <project>.ipr file (if old project format is used).
If the Local history is blank and you are in Windows, try Restore previous versions right clicking the workspace.xml file or the <project>.iws one in Windows Explorer.
You can go to your main project and right click on it, select local history --> show history. Find some point in time where you think that system was stable (before crash) and click revert. This worked for me.
To me, this frequently happened on switching branches. Turning off "restore workspace on branch switching" helps to prevent the run configurations from getting lost.
Edit: Not sure if it actually has an impact, it still seems to happen to me sometimes, maybe less frequently though. I'll leave it here since the answer already has some upvotes, so maybe this was the solution for someone...
For every project in intellij there's a file created with all the configurations related to it.
Under the root directory of the project there's a hidden folder .idea in it is the workspace.xml with the configuration. workspace.xml is comprised of components one of which is responsible to hold the run/debug configurations.
If this file is getting corrupted it's difficult to restore these configurations if you don't have a backup of workspace.xml. to overcome it:
1. in intellij right click the workspace.xml file under project view and choose Local History -> Show History
2. if there's no history you can copy the component from a coworker with similar configurations.
3. backup in advance the workspace.xml and retrieve the RunManager component from it..
another good choice is to use the share option.
under each project's definition there's a checkbox share
Marking this checkbox will extract the definition for this project to an external location:
under the same .idea folder a new folder is being created runConfigurations and the configurations per project are being represented there in xml files.
The advantage of using share is that it can be copied and used for similar projects under other branched like QA and production
In my case, i've accidentally pressed Alt + Home and this bar disappeared, this combination toggles run bar at the top of IDEA window for me.
Here the screen with my bound actions on this keys. I hope it should help
Run configurations are stored in your project files. When IntelliJ (or your computer with IntelliJ running) crashes hard, the project files can become corrupted and unreadable. I don't know of a way to recover this unless you have your project files are backed up somewhere.
Navigate to your project folder and check weather any .idea folder is created or not,
if created copy your project and paste it other location ant try opening it;
it will work.
I sometimes have the problem that all the run/debug configurations are not created from CMake after being lost. I solved this by just deleting the whone list of configurations from the workspace.xml (from .idea folder).
This happened to me recently and I just restarted IntelliJ and they shared ones (in .run) are now restored.
In my case what happened was I did something that made IntelliJ recognize the project as a new application type, so it thought my old configuration was not valid for my project anymore and wasn't displaying it to me. I reverted my changes and the configuration appeared as an option again.
I guess this feature can't be removed from IntelliJ but I guess this can help:
Run/Debug configuration functionality might be hidden, so to show it go to:
View/Appearance/Navigation Bar
Very annoying problem in Intellij Idea for many years.
It's quite often breaks because of broken (connection to?) Ant debugger, used to create run configs.
I was periodically searching for a solution, but no success. Then today after disappeared Run Config to display in panel I did inspect contents of workspace.xml. All the run configs were there.
And then it turns out to be 7+ years bug clue...
Always spring out non-called Ant...
Happily, contents of workspace.xml in place with all your run config items, you can just
disable infamous plugin Ant debugger,
reload the project,
and all your run configs are displayed and available again))).
Happy to share with all of you the solution).

idea9.0.3 commit

I use idea 9.0.3 and I want to commit few my application's files to SVN.
Please can anyone tell me step by step what I have to do?
you need to add version control to the project, using the 'version control' menu option at the top. I have IDEA 10, so it might be different, but in the menu, there is an 'import into version control' option. So add your SVN repo there.
once you have done that you can right click on any file or directory, go to the 'Subversion' option, and do svn operations on the file.
I use command+k on my mac to automatically start the commit process. The only thing I need to remember is to add files when they are first created, else they don't get committed.
EDIT -- You might have failed to add svn to the project -- did you enter your credentials? I assumed there was already an svn repo for your project. You don't see something like:
