Question

I have a project that I pushed to github in intellij via the “share code” option. I reopened the project today only to find that my git-specific options have been replaced by those for subversion. I tried cloning a version of my code into a new project, thinking certianly intellij could figure out where it came from that way, but to no avail. I still don’t have the ability to push/pull/view history via intellij (though I still can via the command line in the project directory).

Is there a way to correct this? This is the current content of the vcs.xml file in the idea directory:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project version="4">
  <component name="VcsDirectoryMappings">
    <mapping directory="" vcs="svn" />
  </component>
</project>

Thanks, as always (I loooove this forum)

Change Subversion to Git in Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Version Control.
