I am a long-time code developer, but relatively new to IntelliJ Idea.
Within a web service project I deleted a CSS file and was immediately prompted to remove the file from CVS. I answered “No” until I could finish factoring out the old css from my web source files. I later processed an “Update Project…” from Version Control to merge my completed changes, and the removed CSS file was restored from the CVS repository.
I know there is the manual method of removing a file from CVS via the command line, but I would like to know if there is a quicker method to do this via the CVS plugin within IntelliJ Idea after the initial “delete from CVS?” dialog box has been skipped.
Background info:
- IDE: IntelliJ Idea 8.1.4
- Language: Java 1.6
- OS: Windows XP SP3
- Source control: CVS
Thank you!
If you do a “commit changes”, the deleted files will be removed from the CVS. There is a Version Control view if I can remember on the lower side of the screen, where you can see your changes. Sorry, I used Idea quite some time ago only, but I hope you will be able to find it…
