Remove IntelliJ Project Version Control

Question

I am managing svn with a third party application.

How do I remove all version control associated with a project in IntelliJ?

Answer 1

Alternatively, you can delete the vcs.xml which exist under the .idea folder;

.idea/vcs.xml

Answer 2

Go to Settings | Version Control, select the mapping(s), click [-] icon or press Delete to remove the mapping or change the association to None.

Answer 3

For me VCS totally removed this way:

"You could disable all VCS-related plugins in Settings: File | Settings | Plugins."

Answer 4

Just to add to the answers above. For one of my projects I had not only VCS (git) enabled, but also connected it to a remote repository. To start from a clean slate you can,

1. Go to File | Settings | Version Control and click -. This will disable the VCS and list it under Unregistered roots:
2. If you really want to get rid of that Unregistered roots: entry and all of the tracking information, go to your project folder and delete the ..\projectDir\.git\ folder also (provided that your were using git as your vcs)

Answer 5

VCS -> Git -> Remotes... and opened Git remotes window. Then you can delete, edit or add the remote connection what you want.
