How to disable creating an ‘.idea’ folder in Rubymine? It creates that folder after opening every single file and if I delete the folder, works just the same as if I don’t. TIA
I don’t think you can (or should) disable the creation of the folder, the same as with the
nbprojectfolder created by NetBeans (they probably serve similar purposes) and for that matter any.svnor other source control-related folders. That things still work may just mean that you haven’t yet hit the place where it’s going to get broken (or maybe RubyMine will just create the fodler again if you’ve deleted it and it needs it?).And why would you want to? You almost certainly don’t want them in source control, but that’s a simple matter of setting an “ignore” property, which isn’t a great hardship.
Why not ask the RubyMine guys? They were pretty helpful when I had a problem.
