'Enable Version Control Integration by default on New Project creation in CLion
On macOS CLion File > New > Project, I want the new project to automatically VCS > Enable Version Control Integration....
Default settings are typically configured with File > New Projects Setup > Preferences for New Projects... but I do not see the option there.
I know this is trivial to do by hand, my real issue is I want my GPG key to be configured automatically, and that option is greyed out in Preferences for New Projects..., presumably because VCS hasn't been enabled.
Thank you.

From what I see the IDE wants at least 1 Git root to be present in a project. And you cannot define Git roots (Directory Mappings screen) in default settings...

(The screenshot is from PhpStorm but it's the same for all IDEA-based IDEs)
This ticket comment says the same: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-276720#focus=Comments-27-5142532.0-0
The option is enabled in the context of projects that have Git mappings. Please open a project that has a git repository, and the option will be there. It can not be configured via Preferences for New projects.
Possible solution:
However, you could setup gpg in global git config to make it work in all your git projects.
