Without adding a dependency to the other module?
Once you found out the property file (from the userdir), where the setting is located, you can set the configuration via code:
For example your setting in located in
`config/Preferences/org/netbeans/modules/subversion.properties`
a) So you can set it via the NbPreferences-API
`
NbPreferences.root().node("org/netbeans/modules/subversion")....
`
b) Or use the branding approach from xref:./DevFaqPropertySheetHideDescription.adoc[DevFaqPropertySheetHideDescription]
