I've recently switched from Netbeans to PHPStorm and I have weird issue with PHPStorm. Sometimes (really often) when I pull or push it shows that it is pulling/pushing but it never ends. I must restart PHPStorm, do it again and then it work. I synchronize with bitbucket if that helps and I use mercurial. PHPStorm doesn't show any errors.
Does anyone know what can cause this?
Have a look at SSH, a lot of people prefer SSH over username/password. With SSH you need to enter password for private key once on first pull or push. Here is manual.
