Is there a way to set the tab size in IntelliJ for a single file only, or at most for a single project?
I use a tab size of 3 for all my code; however, I'm collaborating on a project with an author who prefers a tab size of 4. Is there a way to set the tab size to 4 for only those files that are part of this project?
