Is it good to use one settings repository for multiple JetBrains products

Time:01-06

Is it possible to use one settings repository for multiple JetBrains products without the setting and plugins from each IDE overriding each other?

For example:

  • Setting1 is the name of the setting repo
  • I've connected Setting1 to PhpStorm and WebStorm

Can plugins of PhpStorm affect WebStorm?

I have tried it and the settings seems to be clashing.

CodePudding user response:

Unfortunately, no; if you use one repository for all IDEs, settings would be synchronized cross-IDE, it can provoke conflicts and settings overwriting.

Similar functionality should be implemented in the Settings Sync plugin in the near future, but this feature doesn't use the configurable repository; all settings are stored on JetBrains cloud servers.
