Perforce tasks never complete
Answered
I've been using WebStorm 2017.X (Ultimate) (macOS) for 6 months on my Angular project with Perforce integration and everything has been running smoothly.
Yesterday, I upgraded to 2018.1 and now every Perforce task never completes. If I try to edit a file, perforce will start the "Perforce Edit" task in the background, but it will never actually complete.
If I remove node_modules from my project (using rm -rf in a terminal), all Perforce tasks immediately complete.
Any ideas?

Hey Dmitriy,
I replied on Stack Overflow - adding the node_modules directory to the ignored files settings inside the IDE worked perfectly.
