Hello @lg2de ,
the reasoning for moving the connected mode configuration out of source control is outlined here.
In the past we could ensure that a solution that is used by a large team is configured correctly regarding binding to the SonarQube server. All users can start using SonarLint within the Solution. No further action is required.
Thanks for sharing this! We indeed received other similar feedback, and we’ve decided to officially support this workflow by adding a possibility to share the connected mode information (namely the server URL and project key) via source control. This will not happen automatically to avoid generating noise but it will be an option available via the Extensions menu.
We’re going to release this in version 7.4, which should be released in a matter of days.
