Description
Feature Request
Please add option to disable code reformatting when saving file in RIDE.
When .robot file is not initially created in RIDE it usually has different robotframework code formatting/style - indentations, number of spaces, breaks into multiple lines and so on. When such file will be edited in RIDE, structure of the file is changed completely, even if just one value was changed.
As a consequence, such example small change is obscured with massive changes of RIDE and not visible in versioning control systems (i.e. GIT)
Also such reformat makes the code not well readable afterwards in other (text) editors than RIDE.
