Spelling
Answered
Hello guys,
its a very simple question, why is it that the dictionaries created automatically by intellij have as file name the owner of the windows account?
For example my project doesn't have its dictionary with the same name, instead it has my name and not the project name.
This can be an issue if in my gitignore i would only like the dictionary with the project name to be uploaded and not the local settings of each team member.
And i also cannot change the project and application level dictionaries, for example change their name and location.

Hello Pedro,
We don't sotre dictionary in file with project name to avoid merge conflicts when multiple developers add entries to the dictionary: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-50997
Feel free to create feature request on YouTrack top rename/relocate dictionaries: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA.
Hi Yaroslav,
thanks for fast response and your response makes perfect sense, didn't thought about merge conflicts in git.
So just to be sure, does the IDE read all *.xml files inside dictionaries?
Cheers,
Pedro
Pedro,
Yes, IDE reads all dictionary files in folder.
