today I converted a java class to kotlin, and when I commited it to git, intellij automatically created two commits - first one is just rename. Is this a new feature?

[nanodeath]

I've never heard of IntelliJ automatically creating commits

[oshai]

I found this: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/10862-vcs-kotlin-converter

[oshai]

and this: https://medvector.github.io/kotlin/converting-to-Kotlin/

[nanodeath]

are you using that plugin?

[oshai]

apparently I had this:

never saw that before

I don't see any related plugin, maybe it's bundled now with intellij 2020.3 or the kotlin plugin?

[nanodeath]

maaaybe, I kinda doubt it; it's not made by JetBrains. I'll check my IDE when I get a chance

This is a built-in feature from the Kotlin plugin, so you can keep track of the code despite the conversion.

There is a small issue that it commits broken code to git (java code in kotlin file)
