I have a team of 5 developers which I work with and within the team we all use Resharper and Stylecop to assist with out development. We develop .net applications in C# using visual studio and use TFS for source control.
Each developer has a resharper and stylecop settings file on their PC which they develop against.
However having a settings file per PC leads to inconsistencies. So we would like to set it up so we have a settings file for resharper and stylecop per solution source controlled with the solution. So when a developer opens the solution, the associated settings files are used rather than a local version.
Could someone assist me in how this may be set up as I expect it is fairly common practice. I have used google to research this but I have not got any clear instructions to achieve this.
The tools can be integrated with a CI server, code quality management server or version control system. ReSharper Command Line Tools are free and don't require a license key.
Resharper is a great Visual Studio productivity extension but on the other hand it slows down significantly the IDE, especially when working with large solutions.
So, how much is ReSharper? A commercial license is $129 for the first year, $103 for the second year, and $77 for the third year onwards. But if you're a student or work on open-source projects you can get a free license. Many developers argue that this price is too much and that they can't afford it.

This looks interesting also. But I am not sure if this still works with 7.1. http://rsm.codeplex.com/ (resharper settings manager)
