svn and IDEA-files modifications

Hello Messi,

Recently, Selena B#6700 seems to modify .i (i.e. IDEA project/module
files) randomly, especially the module files (*.iml): IDEA seems to
"randomly" switch the order of XML-attributes such as for "component",
where it switched order of "name" and "inherit-compiler-output" or for
attribute "sourceFolder", switching "isTestSource" and "url", same for
"orderEntry" elements...
This, of course, leads to "unnecessary" svn-changes... has anyone else
seen this? Should I file a request (its non-reproducible for me, at
least not consistently).

This is a known issue. It's likely that the final version of Selena will
write attributes in the same order as the current EAP build.

Should I file a request

Ok, thanks.

kind regards,

Messi
