Why are a visual studio project's command-line settings stored per user? Is it OK to check-in (and
- by DanO
We're creating an application that understands some command-line parameters. There are some default's we would like to supply on the command-line when debugging, and these are easily set in the project settings as explained here.
The thing is visual studio stores these settings in a *.csproj.user file, and the default settings for integrated source control do not check-in *.user files. We would like to just have these default command-line parameters in everyone's IDE when debugging this project.
Often (but not always) when visual studio guides you into doing things a certain way it is for good reason. We probably don't want to just check-in someone's .csproj.user file... right?
This question is has a few parts:
Why does Visual Studio store this
particular setting per user?
Is there a way to alter this behavior? - Would doing so bring bad juju?
Under these circumstances is it OK to check-in and share a .user file?
Is there a better way to accomplish what we are
trying to do here?
Thank you -
