[Flow] Opinions? Setting up PhpStorm projects

[Aske Ertmann]

Hi Jacob

I use the latter. Haven't set up PHPUnit in PhpStorm currently through, but did have it working at some point..

I wouldn't want to open a new project every time I need to work in another package since I often change code in multiple packages during a workflow.

Also code completion works perfectly fine when having the whole distribution as a project with a few excluded folders, without having to add specific library sources.

Haven't experienced that PhpStorm wanted me to rename stuff in TYPO3.Flow, so not sure about that one.
