I'm looking for a solution to keep the project-specific settings synchronized for a large number of projects. For example, I'm working on a large app with many individual projects. We want to specify consistent project settings (Java compiler settings, save actions, etc.) for all of the projects. We want the .settings folder checked into source control with each project, so that they are automatically applied regardless of what workspace the projects are checked out into. In other words, we want to ignore workspace settings.
This is easy to set up (configure the project settings the way we want in one project, then copy over the ./settings folder into all the other projects and check them all in), but it's a maintenance headache; when we want to adjust one of the settings, we have to re-copy the ./settings folder to all of the projects again.
My question is, is this something that Workspace Mechanic could help with? It's not something that the whole team needs to do, we just need 1 or 2 people responsible for making settings changes.
Thanks,
Eric
