Is it possible to list all files which have local changes in IntelliJ IDEA (outside of "Changes" view)


IntelliJ IDEA offers two very handy actions as part of the "View" menu: "Recent Files" and "Recently Changed Files". Is there a way to only list the files which have local changes? (In a non-intrusive style like the actions above do, not as part of the "Changes" view)


Solution

  • 2020.1 and later versions have an option to use the new non-modal Commit tool-window:

    non-modal

    If you enable this option, the local changes will be in the Commit tool window.

    Previous IDE versions have the following ways to view modified files:

    Previously the only way to view the changed files was via the Commit dialog:

    Version Control | Commit Changes will show a dialog with locally changed files.
