Is there any tool or plugin for intellij that let you propagate project settings (code formatting etc) across your team ?, something like Eclipse Workspace Mechanic for eclipse

Yes, you can select File
-> Export Settings...
and there you can find all properties you can export.
After that you give that settings.jar
to all your team members, and all they need to do is File
-> Import settings...
and select all properties they want to be imported.
You can find more information here.
If you want it to be done automatically, you can look at Settings repository
plugin (Preferences -> Plugins). It's description you can find here.

Yes but i think that workspace mechanic is more flexible because i can specify which settings should be shared by team, not all ... – Łukasz Woźniczka Mar 08 '17 at 09:23

You don't need to export/import IDE settings for that. Using Settings Repository plug-in is also an overkill for such a simple task.
Instead, configure IntelliJ IDEA to store the code style and inspection profiles inside the project, then share your project files with the team.
