Indentation.txt

This how to adresses the problem of changing the indentation white space settings 
on a per solution basis. The community choice for GitSharp was TABS so if you need
spaces in other solutions then check this out.

Short Summary:
==========

1) Your solutions need to have a solution item called Indentation.vssettings (see GitSharp 
	solution's which sets *only* the indentation whitespace to tabs)
2) You need to paste the following script at the end of your EnvironmentEvents makro that 
	automatically loads Indentation.vssettings if it exists:

    '''''''''''''
    Private Sub SolutionEvents_Opened() Handles SolutionEvents.Opened
        Dim item As ProjectItem = DTE.Solution.FindProjectItem("Indentation.vssettings")
        If Not item Is Nothing Then
            Dim name = item.FileNames(1)
            DTE.ExecuteCommand("Tools.ImportandExportSettings", "/import:""" & name & """")
        End If
    End Sub
    ''''''''''''' 

Long Explanantion:
============

1) If you have multiple solutions with different white space settings you'll want to set the 
	regarding setting (i.e. UseTabs) automatically. Add Indentation.vssettings to every of your 
	solutions that is having conflicting settings and edit it to your needs. For example: GitSharp's 
	Indentation.vssettings is only touching "InsertTabs" and nothing else.
	
	Note: As long as you don't add the following makro it won't affect your settings in any way. 
	
2) However, if you want to load the correct settings automatically when a new solution is loaded 
	then follow the receipe:

    1. Launch the Macros IDE (Alt+F11)
    2. In the "Project Explorer" toolwindow, double-click on "MyMacros" to expand it
    3. Double-click on "EnvironmentEvents" to show the source code
    4. Add this code just above the "End Module" statement at the end of the file:

    '''''''''''''
        Private Sub SolutionEvents_Opened() Handles SolutionEvents.Opened
            Dim item As ProjectItem = DTE.Solution.FindProjectItem("VsEditorFormatting.vssettings")
            If Not item Is Nothing Then
                Dim name = item.FileNames(1)
                DTE.ExecuteCommand("Tools.ImportandExportSettings", "/import:""" & name & """")
            End If
        End Sub
    '''''''''''''

    What this does is hook up a handler for the "Solution.Opened" event. When it fires, the code looks for 
    your "VsEditorFormatting.vssettings" file in the solution and, if it's found, it imports that file.

    5. Close the Macros IDE
    6. Close Visual Studio (you will get prompted to save "MyMacros")

    Now, every time you open a solution containing a "VsEditorFormatting.vssettings" file, it will be automatically 
    imported for you. You will can need to share this macro with your co-workers so that they can take 
    advantage of it.
