I have an open project in PhpStorm that I manage using SourceTree. I was trying to remove some image files from a commit using SourceTree, but accidentally selected a file that should not be deleted. I haven't changed anything (in either PhpStorm or SourceTree) since deleting the file. I tried to do Ctrl+Z in SourceTree but nothing happened. I then checked in PhpStorm Vcs -> local history, but it didn't show the file. How can I recover this file?

Try to right click on project main folder in phpStorm and select Local history / Show History in context menu (not vcs / local history). The file should be at the list as "Deleting".
