How to show blue dot icons when files were modified with Git in PhpStorm IDE like this picture?
Please help me setup for this in PhpStorm IDE. Thank you so much.

PhpStorm (and other IDEA-based IDEs) does not have such dots. Instead the file name color is used to specify the VCS file status.
Default colors and their meaning can be seen here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/project-tool-window.html#file_status_highlight
You can see and change those colors at
Settings (Preferences on macOS) | Version Control | File Status Colors
The IDE can mark the actual folders with colors as well. There is an option for that (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/30915650/783119 for details). These days it's located at
Settings (Preferences on macOS) | Version Control | Confirmation
screen and is calledHighlight directories that contain modified files in the Project tree
.The colors that will be used here (so you can change them if needed):
Have changed descendants
andHave immediate changed children
