title: How to use existing Intellij projects as a I move forward with SBT?
body: <p>Novice SBT question - Now that I've started with some basic SBT tutorials, I'd like to start using SBT build files (within Intellij) a lot more often. However, there's a couple of problems with this :</p>
  
  <p>1) Existing projects that I currently publish to a jar, and later import into other projects... how do I publish this jar file to my local repository? SBT publish-local doesn't seem to fit my situation, because the project was made in Intellij and is not (yet) an SBT project.</p>
  
  <p>2) Suppose I do convert the project to an SBT build setup (and then import it into Intellij).. how do I configure Intellij to to publish-local (update) each time I build the project? I do not see many configurable settings around SBT within the new Intellij SBT support.</p>
  
  <p>Using Intellij 13 and SBT 0.13.1</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
