Description

« Hide

I have 1 incoming change even though I have fully updated the project. It is always the same change.

One thing i found strange today was that when i checked the incoming changes after IDEA finished loading, i saw 3 incoming changes (which was correct because i did not have those changes yet). I did a project update and those 3 changes were removed from the incoming list but a new incoming change was added. This change is from July 31 2007.

I have attached the IDEA log for the two refreshes.

I have this same issue. No matter how many times I update the project (whether from within IJ or from outside) I have the same 2 incoming changes showing up.

I'd be happy to provide any logs or other information that anyone may need to help debug and resolve this issue.

My list of 'incoming' changes that won't go away has about 50 items, scattered more or less uniformly over the last 6 months.

I have the same issue. Even some changes I made by myself are shown as Incoming changes, scattered over the last three months.

I've fixed one specific problem: changes for added files could remain in incoming changes if those files were subsequently deleted. Most likely this doesn't cover all cases of incoming changes refresh problems; please file new issues with idea.log attached if you can reproduce the problem with 7.0.3 EAP builds.

Dmitry, thanks for the fix, but it didn't affect my big list of 'bogus' incoming changes noticeably. Where is the data for this Incoming Changes tab stored? I'd like to try clearing out that data and letting IDEA rebuild it.

To rebuild the data, delete the system\vcsCache directory and press Refresh in the Changes | Committed or Changes | Incoming view.

For the benefit of anyone following along: system/vcsCache is at ~/Library/Caches/IntelliJIDEA70/vcsCache on Mac OS X. Deleting that did clear out my incoming changes tab. Refreshing the Incoming Changes tab, though, still gives dozens of old changelists; I'll try to narrow it down more and maybe file a new bug when I get a chance...
