The first are by far not all settings needed, the 2nd are not checked in to git anyway. Maybe I didn't  find it yet, but is there an ability to set formatter settings for XML (e.g. Tabs vs spaces policy)? I was only able to specify this for the whole workspace and not on a per project basis.

Those are workspace settings in the 3.4, not checked 3.,5 yet. You could add
it to bugzilla as a feature request. All settings should be available as project settings I think.

For JGit, not really. Everything that is not project settings should be left as the default. The only reason is tool constraints. I'm not well versed
enough to tell what neatbeans does here.

I'm not sure keeping netbeans settings would be a problem, but that is
about how much we could do

Yep...

I definitely think we should keep them until we find an alternate solution. The
projects settings are way too useful to be thrown out.
