Sharing kdevelop preferences via git

[Raymond Wan]

Hi all,

I guess this is a mix git + kdevelop question.  But, I think 
between the two, this question is perhaps more relevant to 
kdevelop (correct me if I am wrong!).

I am working on a software project with other collaborators 
and we seem to all be using kdevelop (so far).  In the hopes 
of trying to standardize tabbing, spacing, etc. we are 
wondering if it is possible to combine all of the source 
code into a project (file) which is then added to the git 
repository that we are using.  Then, anyone of us can open 
up the project file and the files all open up and everything 
is set for us.

I am trying to set this up, but with little success so far. 
  The project file seems to be the .kdev4 files.  Each has 
only two lines:

Manager=
Name=

My personal settings, though, are stored outside of the git 
repository off my home directory.

This makes sense to me since this is the usual case.  If I 
am on another project, I want my preferences to carry over 
to it.  So...is sharing kdevelop preferences via git impossible?

As a related aside, does anyone have any suggested reading 
on how to set up a Project.  Or, alternatively, what can go 
into the .kdev4 files?  I feel like I'm not using the notion 
of "Projects" to its full potential...

Thank you!
