## Apply actions to files

Open the context menu in Files to apply actions to files. Actions like Open in Editor and Show in File System are provided for all files. The availability of other actions depends on the state of the selected file.

- To add untracked files to the version control, select Stage. To delete them, select Remove. To add them to the ignore list, select Add to .gitignore.
- To revert modified files to the previous state, select Revert Unstaged Changes to <file> or Revert All Changes to <file>. To stage the whole file for commit, select Stage. To unstage it, select Unstage.
- Select Recover <file> to restore files deleted from version control.
- Conflicted files provide actions to Run Merge Tool for conflict resolution. For deleted files, select Resolve by Recovering to restore them or Resolve by Removing to delete the file. To resolve other merge conflicts, select Resolve Conflicts with Ours to choose our version or Resolve Conflicts with Theirs to choose their version. If you resolved the conflicts manually, select Mark Conflicts Resolved to move the file out of conflicted state.
