codeStyleSettings.xml always modified by Android Studio

Question

Using Android Studio 1.3.2, the .idea/codeStyleSettings.xml is constantly modified to add a section for ...<

Answer 1

Ran into this exact problem, which hampered process since codeStyleSettings.xml was a version controlled file. Solved it (on my Windows machine if that makes a difference) with the low-tech solution of marking the file as read only. Android Studio complained about it the first time after making that change, but I prevented it from unsetting read-only and things worked fine after that.
