Is there a way to share Qt Creator project settings when working on a

QMake projects in

The
idea would be to check the "shared" config into a GIT repository.
It looks like the CMake equivalent to a .pro.user file is
CMakeLists.txt.user, so you might think CMakeList.txt.share would have
the same role as the .pro.shared file. I tried creating such a file,
though, and as far as I could tell, it was not read at start-up.
It *should* be read, but many settings are not easily transferable between
different Qt Creator instances and these tend to get silently dropped.
Interesting.
What exactly would be the reasons why the changes aren't transferable? I
mean, you'd think that typical build settings shouldn't be that closely
tied to an exact instance. If you are using a custom kit, obviously it
must exist on all systems, but that can be arranged
Basically anything with a UUID in the path to the setting will not work anywhere
but no your own machine. This effects everything below a Kit/Target, incl. all
Build-/Deploy- and RunConfigurations.
What mean by UUID in the path and below Kit/Target? I do see
<variable>ProjectExplorer.Project.Target.0</variable> and <value
type="QString"
key="ProjectExplorer.ProjectConfiguration.Id">{c22a02d6-19b8-4fec-8ac6-9960994a802e}</value>.
Is that what you're referring to?
I have a .shared file with such settings in a plain make project, and it
is read just fine. I also did a quick test of something similar in a
QMake project, and everything appeared to work there, too. Does what
you're saying above only refer to CMake projects? Or does it have
something to do with kits? My CMake project uses a custom one, while the
others are based on the built-in "Desktop" kit.
Thanks,
