Is there a way to override some KiCAD settings in specific project?

I am wondering if there is a way to set some KiCAD settings on per-project basis? Here is a specific example: there is a global KiCAD setting to create or not create automatic backups, it is stored in kicad_common.json file and is called “auto-backup”: { “enabled” }. I would like to be able to:

  1. Override/force this setting in one project to the value of true
  2. Override/force this setting in another project to the value of false
  3. Keep the global setting as is for all other projects

I tried placing corresponding JSON statements from kicad_common.json to project’s .kicad_prl file, but it did not work. Is there a way?
