Changed rows are not highlighted in PHPstorm
When I make a change in a file, the row is not highlighted. There are no color blocks next to line numbers.
The changed file is highlighted (the file name in tab and in project window), but when I click outside of phpstorm, the highlight gets disappeared.
I have turned on the "Highlight modified lines in the gutter" option in Settings > Editor > General. Even if I display Git > Current File > Show Diff, the changed lines are highlighted there. I have also disabled all downloaded plugins, invalidated cache, restarted phpstorm, removed the .idea folder.
I have PHPstorm 2020.3.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Is there any chance that you have "Version Control > Git > Enable staging area" option active?

I don't have the option active. Even downgrade to 2020.2.4 did't solve the problem.
On Netbeans IDE, everything works even without any configuration.
Could be too obvious but does the "Save" action as proposed in the ticket above change anything?
Ran into the same issue in v2021.3.2. It turned out to be due to the case folding. I have `tests/unit` in git, but on a local filesystem (MacOS, case-insensetive) it was `tests/Unit`, which was causing PhpStorm to not highlight changes to files in that folder. The git CLI works just fine, and I can see the changes with the `git diff`, so I'd say it's a PhpStorm bug.
Eugene Leonovich, it seems to be this one, please vote for the bug report: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-118366
