How do I get the modal git commit dialog back?
已回答
Making this a tab on the left side was a bad choice. The nature of a commit means that I often want to see a list of files, which means I need to expand that tab to the right to see the full file path:

See, at the arrow? Half my file path is not visible. So I need to expand that to the right to see the full path. But wait! When I go to the file browser view (CMD+1) now the file browser is taking up way too much horizontal real estate.
This was a bad change. How do I reverse it?

The modal commit interface was moved to a dedicated plugin in the latest 2025.1 release: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IJPL-177161. The plugin should be installed and enabled by default: please check in Settings (
⌘ + ,
orCtrl + Alt + S
) > Plugins > Modal Commit Interface. Then enable the following option: Settings (⌘ + ,
orCtrl + Alt + S
) > Advanced Settings > Use modal commit interface for Git and Mercurial.Also, make sure that the Enable staging area option is disabled in Settings (
⌘ + ,
orCtrl + Alt + S
) > Version Control > Git.thanks
