Status is always shown as No gitflow

• I’m submitting a …

  • bug report
  • feature request
  • puppy => You’re not submitting a puppy. I already have one and he’s adorable

• What is the current behavior? On repositories where gitflow is setup, the status bar shows as No gitflow. I have tried to re-init the git flow by doing a git flow init -f but the result is still the same.

• Is this a bug? Sorry about that. If so give me explicit details how to reproduce:

1. Open PhpStorm
2. Install version 0.7.0 (modify the metadata info to get it installed in build 193)
3. Notice in the bottom corner that the status is shown as No gitflow

• What is the expected behavior? That there is the option to perform git flow operations.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? It does not work as expected at the moment.

• Please tell me about your environment:

  • Gitflow4idea version: 0.7.0

  • Gitflow version: 0.4.1

@gn-jgeerds Thank you for the tip.

So I did the following:

1. I removed the git-flow
2. installed git-flow-avh
3. forced the git init with git flow init -f
4. Restarted PhpStorm
5. Now I can see the git actions again

The only thing I do see (or rather not) is the gitflow icon:

Notice the empty space before the lock, I have to click there to see this:

Any tips for that? 😉

Edit: This only seems to happen on projects with multiple git repos (submodules)

@gn-jgeerds Thank you, too. Switching to git-flow-avh solved the problem for me, too 😊

@OpherV: Hope you had a nice vacation! Perhaps your plugin could check git flow version and show some notice on 0.4.1…
