'“Unregistered Git root detected” because parent directory of project is versioned by Git
I set up a PyCharm project /parent/project, that is managed by Mercurial at /parent/project/.hg. Independently of this project, /parent is managed by Git at /parent/.git.
Unfortunately, this causes PyCharm to complain: "Unregistered Git root detected: The directory /parent is under Git, but is not registered in the Settings."
What's a clean solution for this? Ideally, I would like PyCharm to simply ignore any repos in directories above the project directory itself.

So far, IntelliJ supports only ignored files via http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/configuring-ignored-files.html. I'm afraid it won't help you with parent folder, though. You may want to separate VCS roots to unrelated folders in this case.
Solution 2:[2]
In Intelij idea: You need to open Project Settings->Libraries and clear all red colored libraries which are not valid. click OK and error will disappear.
