Yes this is a big issue that has come up before. We really need all to get a
better separation for the project file so it can be checked into source control
and shared. Right now we check this in to sour control but all the developers
need to have it checked out so things like shared jars are properly mapped but
the ability for IDEA to "remember" settings, curser position and projects is
also in the same file.
We also have had the issue come up where the user preferences and settings
should be stored in user's home directory in a ".idea" directory or something.
This way the project file will only contain the real data for the project setup.
All the project *state* and nice "remember" where my curser and what files I had
opened should be stored in a user's directory.
Once we get this we can install a single instance of IDEA in a shared area so
all the developers can use the same copy. This will help us keep all our
developers on the same version of IDEA and make sure upgrades are simple and
fast.
