I am using an independent version control management program (SmartGit) alongside Qt Creator, and I would prefer not to use Qt Creator for version control management.
It is becoming a nuisance that Qt always prompts me regarding whether I'd like to add new files to Git (when I add new files to the Qt Creator project), and whether I'd like to remove files from Git (when I remove files from the project).
Earlier today, I mistakenly added a file to Git through Qt Creator when adding a new file to the Qt Creator project. A few minutes later, I wished to temporarily remove the file from the project (likely to be re-added later). When I removed the file, Qt Creator dutifully asked me if I'd like to remove the file from version control - giving me a warning that the file might be removed permanently from the file system. Understanding the risk, I nonetheless decided to test the behavior and I said "yes, remove the file from Git as well as removing it from the project". Just as the warning forewarned, the file was removed from the file system and I then had to reconstruct it.
I could simply live with it and occasionally use Qt Creator's version control features in addition to SmartGit's, and/or I could use SmartGit directly to deal with any mistaken occasional uses ogreatf Qt Creator's version control features. However, I'd rather simply disable Qt Creator's version control features entirely, for convenience.
I looked through every Qt Creator option I could find in order to see if it is possible to disable Qt Creator's version control features (even if the project's files are under version control). Unfortunately, I cannot find an option to disable Qt Creator's version control features, anywhere. A careful Google search also revealed nothing.
Is it possible to disable Qt Creator's version control features, even if the project's files are under version control? If so, how is it done?

You can also select Tools and then select Create Repository in the submenu for the version control system. To import a project that is under version control, choose File > New Project > Project from Version Control and select the version control system that you use.
To switch themes, select Edit > Preferences > Environment, and then select a theme in the Theme field. You can use the Qt Creator text and code editors with your favorite color scheme that defines how code elements are highlighted and which background color is used.
A Qt Kit is a set of a Qt version, compiler and device and some other settings. It is used to uniquely identify the combination of tools for your project build. A typical kit for the desktop would contain a C++ compiler and a Qt version (e.g. Qt 6. xx. yy) and a device (“Desktop”).
