If I leave my tab length in Atom Editor settings on the default 2 spaces, then open a file that is using 4 spaces tab length, it wrongly picks it up as 2 spaces. If I hit save without changing anything, it then correctly picks up that it should be 4 spaces.
The same happens the other way round. If I set the default in Atom Editor to 4 spaces, then open a file that has 2 spaces tabs, I have to again hit save first for it to correctly calculate the file's spacing.
Some projects I work on use 2 spaces tabs and some 4, every time I have to hit save first when I open a new file, or I have to keep changing the default.
Am I missing something?
I'm on Mac - El Capitan. Atom 1.13.0, auto-detect-indentation 1.3.0.
