Why does PHPStorm GIT show an ID instead of a branch name, and how can I fix it?

Question

git

Good afternoon, colleagues!
I use GIT in PHPStorm. I make a checkout for a branch with a certain name, but for some reason, in the lower left corner , not the name of the branch is displayed, but some kind of identifier . What could be the problem and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

It looks like you are not on a branch, but on a separate commit. Check git status via console, it will probably write about detached head.
