Getting Clear read only status on Webstorm 8
I had similar problem and I ran following command and my problem was resolved:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) my-project-folder
Works on both Ubuntu & OS X
To check username use: whoami
Same answer as above but use the current user and also add the files to the current group
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER my-project-folder
$USER is a variable which stores your currently logged in user,at least on Ubuntu.
