Confirmation

When files are created

In this section, specify whether and how to put a file created in DataGrip under version control:

• Ask: newly created files are put under version control after you specify the options in the dialog that opens.

• Add silently: newly created files are automatically added to version control without any notification. Apply files created outside DataGrip: if you select this option, files created outside DataGrip will also be placed under version control silently.

• Do not add: newly created files remain unversioned and you can put them under version control later.

When files are deleted

In this section, specify whether and how to remove a file from version control when the file is deleted:

• Ask: files removed locally are also removed from VCS after you have selected it in the dialog that opens.

• Remove silently: all files removed locally are removed from VCS without asking for confirmation.

• Do not remove: files removed locally remain under version control.
