Codeigniter and phpstorm and github

You can use Apache's vhost to do this. A production site and a development site and both, if you like, can be on Github. You can install, just as an example, different versions of frameworks, etc.
Access to this file: \Apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/wdsite/public"
    ServerName localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/wdsite-error.log"
</VirtualHost>


<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/wdtest/public"
    ServerName wdtest
    ErrorLog "logs/wdtest-error.log"
</VirtualHost>


<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/wdtools/public"
    ServerName wdtools
    ErrorLog "logs/wdtools-error.log"
</VirtualHost>

If you are using Windows you will have to change the 'hosts' file, in C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts, as admin. Below is an example of the host file::

Code:

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 wdtest
127.0.0.1 wdtools
