Is there a way to reset the position of the commit button back in the sidebar in Intellij Idea community?

Question

I was saving a file when i accidentally moved the commit button and now it is outside the sidebar. Is there a way to put it back in or reset the position of all the buttons?Screenshot

Answer 1

I didn't quite understand what you mean by "moved the commit button and now it is outside the sidebar", but I took a look at your screenshot.

Assuming that you changed the Commit tool back to its old modal interface, you could easily revert that:

• Go into Settings (CTRL+ALT+S for Windows)
• Navigate to Version Control > Commit
• Enable the option Use non-modal commit interface

With that option enabled, your commit tools should appear as an item in your left sidebar.
