File names highlighted in red. Problem?

已回答

Hi there,

I recently made a local clone of a project stored in a git repo and for some reason all the file names are listed in red. The software seems to run perfectly, I'm just wondering if there's something I should be aware of regarding the highlighting.

Thanks

Hi!

It means that those files are not added to the git repository (not committed nor staged). Please take a look at our web help topic: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/clion/file-status-highlights.html.

I am having the same issue, my files are added to the git repository. The problem is if I try to open those file with AppCode by clicking once or twice it doesn't do anything.

Denis, how did you open the project? Did you checkout it using AppCode?

I have had this problem in pyCharm with a newly cloned project. I think for me the highlight problem was because pyCharm was taking time indexing everything. When I updated the project tree, the files became normal.

For me restarting PyCharm solved the issue.

I rebooted both the app and my computer and it didn't fix all the red files. Closing the project from the file menu and reopening did the trick.

If you're going to highlight something in red by default, it should generate some sort of warning somewhere so we can figure out what it is without having to google.

(I've literally discovered this issue many times, because RED in rider ide normally means some sort of error or warning….)

Also probably a bad idea to use RED as the default for not being checked in, when again RED normally indicates some sort of error that needs fixing.
