PhpStorm .idea in GIT issues

In order to keep codestyles the same for every team member, our projects have PhpStorm config files as a part of GIT.

Conditions

VCS contains config files in .idea. Files list:

Problems

Workaround

If I delete the entire .idea folder with the files in it and PhpStorm reinitializes the settings, everything seemingly works fine.

Have anyone else encountered something similar? What can you recommend?

Yes, that the known problem when .idea folder is present and not empty but does not have minimal needed files (cannot say for sure, but I guess the IDE wants to see workspace.xml and maybe *.iml + modules.xml to avoid this issue).

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-271728 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on the progress.

What can you recommend?

Sadly I've got nothing significant to suggest from my end. I simply do not face such problem (can easily manually workaround it if needed).

The only thing I may suggest is:

  • Make a new project without .idea folder in it.

  • Once the project is created, close it in the IDE and overwrite those files (a simple copy-paste will do just fine).

You should ignore all user-specific config files. Below is the recommended file list that should be added to the .gitignore

# Covers JetBrains IDEs: IntelliJ, RubyMine, PhpStorm, AppCode, PyCharm, CLion, Android Studio, WebStorm and Rider
# Reference: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544839

# User-specific stuff
.idea/**/workspace.xml
.idea/**/tasks.xml
.idea/**/usage.statistics.xml
.idea/**/dictionaries
.idea/**/shelf

# AWS User-specific
.idea/**/aws.xml

# Generated files
.idea/**/contentModel.xml

# Sensitive or high-churn files
.idea/**/dataSources/
.idea/**/dataSources.ids
.idea/**/dataSources.local.xml
.idea/**/sqlDataSources.xml
.idea/**/dynamic.xml
.idea/**/uiDesigner.xml
.idea/**/dbnavigator.xml

# Gradle
.idea/**/gradle.xml
.idea/**/libraries

# Gradle and Maven with auto-import
# When using Gradle or Maven with auto-import, you should exclude module files,
# since they will be recreated, and may cause churn.  Uncomment if using
# auto-import.
# .idea/artifacts
# .idea/compiler.xml
# .idea/jarRepositories.xml
# .idea/modules.xml
# .idea/*.iml
# .idea/modules
# *.iml
# *.ipr

# CMake
cmake-build-*/

# Mongo Explorer plugin
.idea/**/mongoSettings.xml

# File-based project format
*.iws

# IntelliJ
out/

# mpeltonen/sbt-idea plugin
.idea_modules/

# JIRA plugin
atlassian-ide-plugin.xml

# Cursive Clojure plugin
.idea/replstate.xml

# SonarLint plugin
.idea/sonarlint/

# Crashlytics plugin (for Android Studio and IntelliJ)
com_crashlytics_export_strings.xml
crashlytics.properties
crashlytics-build.properties
fabric.properties

# Editor-based Rest Client
.idea/httpRequests

# Android studio 3.1+ serialized cache file
.idea/caches/build_file_checksums.ser

If some files are still on the git, you should delete them and then commit them.
