I have a dev *nix box. For most cases I can just ssh into the box and use emacs to develop. However, as I've started doing more Java work with very large codebases, I've realized IntelliJ IDEA is pretty invaluable.

Problem: I would like to use IntelliJ IDEA on OS X, but work with a project located on some other machine. Is there a way to configure IntelliJ IDEA to do this? (over ssh/mosh/or whatever)

Thanks.

I ended up just using IntelliJ locally and pointing it to a mounted server drive.
